Can you fill in the underpants gap as to why governments would want to do this rather than getting life back to normal?

Simple politics

Being seen to be doing something that helps everyone
Being seen to have brought things back to normality without killing a load of people would be the simple political win.

A perfect example of a contradictory message being sent out to everyone by our national leaders , no wonder folk are confused and a tad pissed off.

Isn’t it their strategy to confuse people?

Please don't think for one moment I am defending them, but don't you think they all will have had a test before gathering? Seems naïve bordering on stupid to assume that they won't have

So what? Unless this is another experiment similar to football matches?

What do you mean so what? Clearly if they have all had tests then the whole image is pointless? And I have no idea what youbare talking about with regards to football matches

Many "normal" folk are tested regularly and vaccinated.....why the fk do the rules not apply in the same way?

1. If you're an Internet randomer make your posts punchy
2. We still don't care but it saves time
3. My I.Q is 146 to 149 ie brighter than you statistically (although dyslexic) so other then spelling, if I say do it and you believe in educated knowledge, do it, vaccinate, as I have both in abundance of each with significant study.

Looks like only the workers at the G7 BigWigs Ball had to wear muzzles.

I'm glad that mask-free party at the G7 coincided with me ditching my mask at the garden centre today. It was interfering with wearing my hearing aid.

So from now on the 'sunflower' lanyard is coming back out. I've tried to play nice, I really have. But if our Glorious Leaders don't need them, then neither do I.

Either the rules are there for the safety and protection of all, or they are just a stupid measure imposed upon us not because it is known to halt the spread of virus particles, but as a "to be seen to be doing something" measure that also doubles as a way of exercising control as an integral part of 'Project Fear'.

As for "they've probably been tested before meeting"? Well #metoo Once a week as part of the ONS/Oxford Uni Covid-19 Survey. And the last two visits also tested my blood, which was positive for antibodies after only one dose of the vaccine. I've since had my second jab, so Boris and his rag-tag band of jackasses can bray right off.

Any business that refuses to accept my exemption won't get any further business from me. And this farcical "mask on, mask off" nonsense to walk a few feet from the door to a table in a restaurant, bar, or cafe needs to stop for everyone. It really isn't fooling anyone at all anymore. It's absolute codswallop...

They do. The Brits, a festival up in Liverpool, test before, test afterwards and no masks or social distancing

I wear one in shops out of common courtesy to the staff, who really don't need confrontation in their work from customers. They are the unsung heroes of these times.

No!
"Bad Company" is the unsung hero here - he's standing up to the man and their demands that common, decent folk should not have to wear muzzles.....

I genuinely cannot stop myself laughing when an internet kid calls masks muzzles.
I mean, it's a good day anyway - lovely weather, football on the TV, iced coffee - but the cherry, when someone is so enraged at muzzles/masks - that is the hill they have decided to die on......come on, it must bring a smile to most people faces.

It probably does, but you can't see it.

Very good.

However, I suspect I'm not alone in finding masked women quite alluring. The crinkle of an eye... supermarket romancing has taken a new turn!

Maybe the Muslims have a point after all?

Having volunteered at a vaccination centre earlier in the year the anti mask lot were the unhealthiest looking bunch. Most of them with huge bellies and fagging away virtually up to the door before quoting some rubbish off Facebook.

I hate wearing them as much as anyone else but I also know how uncomfortable it can make other people, it's not all about me.

I was in a que to pay for fuel today, masked and standing on the blue circle thing with the feet.

Guy in front turns with a bit of aggression and says 'mate would you move back please'.

At that point he was called forward.

The whole thing has people thinking and acting in strange ways.

The lone anti-vax dad at my kids' school - who refused to go masked to collect his son (because conspiracy/WEF/control etc) so has to stand outside the school gates - is pasty and obese, and is regularly pictured on Facebook scoffing KFC or 'checking into' McDonalds. Blathers on about the vaccine and how he's not taking it. Oh and he also has quite bad asthma.
