From that piece: "Dyfed-Powys Police has issued 368 FPNs for breaching Covid-19 regulations between 27 March and 14 April. "


 


That's around 20 per day, just from one police force. Given that they don't just hand out penalties each time that's a lot of people flouting the rules.  It's also an indicator of how much the police are trying to enforce the law.

I can’t see a normal summer season happening in Cornwall, or anywhere for that matter.

Even if movement restrictions are eased people may be in fear of being abused if they head for such destinations..

Too right Marcus. Seems some on here think even without conclusive evidence they are right. Typical remainer trait!

Beware of fake news circulating regarding the death of the first Oxford vaccine recipient.
I was alarmed when I read it, but it’s been quickly debunked (by the lady herself!).
Why do scumbags do this?

Yep and don't forget the de facto physical distancing of many couples after weeks of living together 24/7.

As for Cummings, I didn't say he influences SAGE, I said he is a very powerful adviser. I am not every saying his presence there is necessary malevolent, it's possible he was genuinely curious and interested. It would still be wrong though.
