I don’t understand why any one’s getting fined. If stopped you just have to say you’re exempt.

Easy.

Maybe they don’t want to lie.
They can pay the fines then.

They have been upheld in Court the links are there as you know and they all related to all the offences under the regulations including masks. TFL are not going a different route they use the same legislation. It's not just TFL. They went a different route (Conditions of carriage where they could not issue FPNs) when the legislation changed, but now are back with the regulations.
Take these people for example not sure those courts got the cannot be upheld memo.

Where the defendant to an information or complaint relies for his defence on any exception, exemption , proviso, excuse or qualification, whether or not it accompanies the description of the offence or matter of complaint in the enactment creating the offence or on which the complaint is founded, the burden of proving the exception, exemption, proviso, excuse or qualification shall be on him
I don’t know where you got that from but there’s no need for proof of exemption from masks. Anyway where would you get proof? Our GP’s aren’t providing them.

A little off topic but I’ll just leave this here. Why is this huge worldwide overreaction happening?

I see some of the usual suspects responded with insults but little evidence or data.

Here’s some more recent data. Obviously the numbers have increased.

If that's aimed at me, the "deranged rant, misconstrued data and terrible grammar" comment was not aimed at you personally but at the graphic you posted.

I stand by the other bit - you changing your story about being exempt, or not - as that's been the recurring theme to this thread.
I’m exempt because I say I am. I know you and many others consider that wrong but that’s how it is.

Highbrow stuff, as expected.
You’re best suggestion was 3-4 pages ago when you said let’s ignore him.

That’ll be the thread with 4 pages of discussion in a day, ok 1 of those pages were you and your chums trolling. You and your mates may not agree with the views but it’s a valid debate.

I also found my limit today. Tested positive for Covid and have to travel so I’ll wear a mask.

I'm probably due a parrot here, but why? If you genuinely don't believe that masks make a difference to the spread of Covid, then why would you wear one now? Is it something to do with the airline, or do you mean a 'proper' mask.

(Genuine question, by the way, as I also don't think masks do much, although I personally wouldn't fly with or without one after a positive test.)
I tested positive with one of those diy NHS tests yesterday. I’ve had another test at a clinic, awaiting results. I won’t fly if it’s positive but have to travel to a hotel.

Yes, but why would you now choose to wear a mask if you do fly?

Good luck with the next test, hopefully the other one was a false positive (although IIRC you are on holiday in the US so a bit longer out there might not go amiss!)
Tested positive.

If you’d met Mrs BC you wouldn’t ask why I’m masked while positive.

I tested positive for Covid yesterday. For me it really is no worse than a bit of a head cold, just a bit sniffy.

Which is what the majority of people will experience, but ‘man gets annoying cold symptoms from Covid’ isn’t much of a headline, so they focus on the deaths instead.

Everyone’s situation is different, but I highly recommend not testing as a way around all this nonsense. Been working for me so far.
I tested as I was due to fly home from Florida. There’s no requirement to test before flying but doing so meant another week in the sun funded largely by travel insurance. Also flying knowing I have Covid just doesn’t seem like the right thing to do.

I’m not going to report the positive test to the NHS thingy, that could open a bag of worms.

Well, best not tor try not wearing a mask on a plane still.........Miami-London flight turned back because of a non-mask wearer. Flight cancelled. Tough for the other passengers.

Sounds like there’s more to that story than the mask refusal.
