I understand the government are totally useless, but I'm disappointed the police seem to be determined to grab the most ineffectual end of the stick too.
I think the problem is that when the police try to enforce the government's vague, contradictory and inconsistent regulations they get hammered as a result of the regulations being vague, contradictory and inconsistent.

This shit makes me so cross. All the talk about getting kids back in school being the number one priority and fining people for going for a walk in the country and yet the data points to transmission being driven by less than essential work, or work that could be done from home.
I'm just still baffled by the government's insistence on not getting to grips with a proper lockdown. How can click and collect handbags even be legal if you can only leave your house for essential shopping or exercise?
Why are the cops not hanging about outside these shops instead of countryside car parks?
