Fuck this can bring out the worst selfish side of people.
My parents in law and brother in law both live in tier 4 areas. They are all intelligent sensible people but today parents in law told my partner they are planning on driving to drive to see their son and his kids. They did similar at the beginning of lockdown 1.0. It’s selfish, against the rules and exactly the kind of behaviour which pisses my wife and me off. Plus it leaves my wife feeling like their desire to see the grandkids over rides their thoughts about how it makes my wife feel that they’ll take this short term risk over the long term of living longer and that somehow the grandkids on that side are more important, and my wife is less of a priority.
