It isn't obvious though.

 

As with all big issues things are extremely complicated. You have listed several talking points and most people here will have various thoughts on each.

 

It is far too oversimplistic to divide everyone into one of two camps. It's a lazy form of argument and just leads us into brain-numbing trigger territory.

I love you like the brother I never had. ........ K

 

 

( now wear yr ****************ing mask n Culloden was a  blip on the socio economic landscape that brought us Sturgeon so getting over it may bring tears )

Garages, shops and other "essential" places were already open and functioning before the mask fiasco. It's not about will you won't you wear a mask, it's the multiple layers of miss-information and conflicting advice, BS reporting etc etc.

 

What amazes me is the response you get if you dare look at things from a different angle.

Extraordinary times require some extraordinary measures.

 

I don't really understand this 'erosion of freedom' stance. If anything, the face covering rules seem very much to be an attempt to give us back our day to day activities and freedoms. As others have pointed out, no Government wants to shut down their own economy.

 

It is good to question authority but I can't help thinking that you have picked the wrong battle this time.

My feeling is that the time’s are not that extraordinary at all rather more the reaction is in itself the main problem. Time will tell I guess. The annual increase in deaths due to  winter flu will no doubt be the second wave that will justify it all. 
I’ve no battle to fight in reality just a different opinion and distrust of what is being peddled by the media and government.

Basically,  yr not being asked to invade a sovereign territory,  enact a vile sexual act, just go into a shop with yr ****************ing mask on to show some regard to others,  it's called manners n might help someone, do you need pictures ? K

Calm yourself down and wind your neck in before you give yourself a turn. How do you know how I react to others and don’t  question my manners when you know nothing of how I behave. It’s this type of self righteous moral high ground occupied by the likes of yourself and similar such opinionated jobsworths  deriding those whom have a different opinion that is the most unpleasant part of this whole farce. 
No I don’t need pictures at all. I see plenty of people conforming every day to know what it looks like.

Possibly the vast amount of postings...... N the fact that if the Scoots had used their left arms, history would be significantly different ? K

Sometimes it is a good thing to make a stand against the prevailing winds, but often we can just build up a self righteous head of steam and start being a bit silly.

That’s a blatant breach of copyright / intellectual property that is!

 

Im sure you’ve cut & paste that direct from one of my annual appraisal reports from back in the day when I had to toe the line, watch my Ps & Qs and mind my own business....

 

Thankfully, I’m (probably over) enjoying the liberty to be a bit more “Yorkshire” (I like what I say and I say what I bloody well like (in a thick Yorker accent)) since casting off the yoke of oppression that came with corporate responsibility....,  ?✊??
