Comfy armchair to one person & a plank to the next
Down as in brought low, not down as in dead
Corrected to "collapsed". Other report I saw was that he "has just succumbed" which was less ambiguous.

I think the issue is don't go out your way in order to just get out into the peak park.
Unless you live in the area as like everyone else they can do without everyone else turning up on mass. They are trying to head off what's been happening in other areas last weekend.

The problem is the people in video may be locals.Others seeing the video may think what a good idea and travel to the area Possible it could turn into the situation that took place at the weekend at various sites.

There are definitely more people here in the IOW and they are not locals. I have also seen on line here, that a large group of people from London have booked some holiday cottages in the next vilage for the next 3 months!

He has endangered a lot of people, both indirectly and directly.
I can understand you being narked about this, you see it daily on your TV screen whereas I don't.

I hope at the end of this there will be an enquiry, and if Johnson or anyone else has been negligent then consequences should follow, i.e. he should go.

Brave Sir Robin ran away
When danger reared its ugly head
He bravely turned his tail and fled

A number of checks on the car number plates showed some clearly had travelled miles just for a walk.
The police are stuffed either way they have a big area to cover not just part of the peak park but urban areas too.
Maybe it is heavy handed but they have to try something.
Health and other services out that way are hard pushed as it is.
Also remember that if you get into trouble it's often volunteers who come to your rescue.
The current outbreak is placing them in difficult situation too.

Despite the barely-disguised glee from some quarters, senior government coming down with this is bad. I'd expect all those involved at the top to have been meeting regularly so it would be unsurprising if a great many more don't have it too - politicians and experts. (isn't this what happened in Iran?). So we'd have a decapitated government, a leaderless opposition in limbo, Parliament in recess... could Sturgeon be the most senior politician left standing?

Cracking a solo.
To use his predecessor's language, "let me be clear:" Fark him.
I don't want him to die from this, I want him to learn from this.
I don't wish him ill, I think he's an atrocious individual whose actions past and present have cost lives and will cost lives, but I don't wish him dead. But I have to say that if he breezes through this I can honestly picture him at the lecturn blathering about a bulldog spirit, Dunkirk, the blitz and getting Corona done.
