From the edited video that was posted, it looked like the guy was arrested for refusing to give his name when asked, rather than giving people soup.

 

Yes, had he given his name I guess he would have been given a warning or a fixed penalty. Not giving his name was also the reason for the hand cuffs. As he would not identify himself they had no idea if he was a known violent individual.

Careful boys. You're talking too much sense

Let's hope you get an answer as I've asked serveral times across many of these type of threads and not had one.
 

Nope, still no answer. I too am starting to amass some unanswered questions. A pattern is beginning to emerge.

Was shopping in Norway yesterday. Still no masks enforced in shops. Seems like Covid is programed to only pick countries that enforce masks and make the virus exponentially more dangerous there......

 

Either that or the folk who fall for the mask nonsense are as in the link, falling for mass hysteria. Norway is still doing much better than the UK when it comes to handling C-19 yet there is a much less draconian approach from the Government. There is some people choosing to wear masks in public spaces and in the shops and thats fine, thats their personal choice, but there is no hysteria and name calling for those that chose not to, and those who chose not to are the vast majority. And guess what Norway's infection rates are well below that in the UK. 

 

Now there's even talk of double masks and indefinite seasonal lock-down to all the mutant strains that will keep coming year in year out and there is so many here who will sagely nod and think that is the correct course of action.

Health Secretary Matt Hancock announced key details of the scheme from February 15 after...

Things are getting literally out of hand. 10 year prison terms !!! These politicians are drunk on a mix of power and absolute subservient compliance. As has been said some will be applauding and nodding in admiration of such abuses of power.

How dare you question Sage and their vested interests with their shares in companies that are making billions off of this pandemic! 

 

How dare you question the very same politicians that are caught on camera stating that Covid is the gift that just keeps on giving.

 

How dare you question the draconian laws that are implemented here that when not implemented in other countries their statistics are as good if not better than the UK .

I have to disagree, they are tipsy on power and clueless. They are going to open these quarantine hotels next week yet the like of Premier Inn, and travel lodge bosses have been on the wireless today saying they weren't consulted until last Friday!, the reason for these new fangled hotels are due to the SA/Brazil variant. 

 

Well done! The SA variant was detected in the UK 50 days ago, the Brazilian 46 days ago... A tad slow off the mark again if they are going to do it.

No police coming to manhandle and shut down these fishermen selling Shrimp and Crab right off the boat. No masks or a care in sight. 
 

How grossly irresponsible and inconsiderate for other people’s grannies. They must be dying in their thousands here. 
 

oh wait, they’re not.....

Too little, too late and poorly planned. Again. Like every single measure that our politicians have attempted to implement during this crisis. This should have been done a year ago, after proper consultation with all parties involved, the majority of whom have a far greater knowledge of what's required.
Accounts like you've heard on the wireless today smack of arrogance on the part of Boris and his little chums to me, it's more than just gross incompetence.
