Lockdown V3

[HAZZA1962]

The Flat Earther slogan really seems to be catching on on this Forum, for anyone that questions the narrative, I think it must be a case of, "I don't mind anyone having an opinion, as long as it's the same as mine " !!! Otherwise they're a Moron, or a Conspiracy theorist, or the flavour of the month, a Flat Earther !!!

2 Women Arrested Today For Sitting On A Bench Bournemouth

That's a difficult one really. Sitting on a bench having a cuppa is not an essential reason to be away from home. I'm guessing she was arrested because she wouldn't give any details to the police so left them no option. That's the law, covid or not.
She was probably using the "exercise " excuse to be outside , I don't know about you but I don't stop mid exercise to have a cuppa !
I've always said that the exercise clause would be taken advantage of.
Perhaps the police are being ordered to do these things to try and persuade the general public to get a grip. Who knows.

i think people are mostly using it to describe the covid deniers, global conspiracy and microchip vaccine believers. which is fair enough, they are as absurd as believing the earth is flat. they are a
bit more dangerous though when there is a global emergency involving a highly infectious virus that’s overwhelming the health services and killing people.

I would have thought, 'exercise' would have included a walk along the seafront, stop to buy a coffee from a takeaway that is allowed to be open, taking a break on a public bench and walking back would have been acceptable. Especially in January, it's cold, I probably would have done exactly the same if I needed to get out for some air and to stretch my legs.

I wonder of they would have bothered her if she had a dog with her?

exactly. by exercise it means the ordinary exercise your average person needs to go out and get because they are stuck in the house the majority of the rest of the time, not just people out running with skin tight lycra gear on.

like somebody else said there might be more to it though.

I think there must be more to it .... what's the issue here? The fact she stopped to sit for a while, or the fact she had a cup of coffee? neither of those make any sense.

... plus there's plenty of other people around in that clip, even people filming it who aren't being nicked.

I've never seen as many Police out and about, as I am lately, where I live, there seems to be a lot of Camera vans parked up in layby's as well, it must be quiet on the crime front !!!

This is only gonna get worse.
This is just cops on a power trip in my opinion.

Just found out from my daughter
She got randomly stopped from cops last night at 2 am
asking where she had been.
She was coming home from work.

As I said to @StrawberryRipple 5% may well be right, I heard that figure somewhere else as well as here.
To be honest I have been thinking for the last few days, can we believe any of the figures nowadays ?
Infection rates, Test rates, Case rates, Death rates, and now we have Vaccination rates, even the way they are calculated changes now,and again to blur everything........................

I can see the 5% number here...

@StrawberryRipple quotes the number but he hasn't said where it comes from so it could be typo in his post or the source.
A quick search of BBC news implies the number should be 50% but I don't know if that's a corrected number or the wrong source.
Who the fuck knows?
I don't believe most of the figures on "here" apart from @Mawsley ,of course, because he's extremely trustworthy and not at all perverted.
