As with BAZ, I'll not be going anywhere any time soon.

Me neither. 

I got a bit of a shock listening to Johnson on Thursday. When he said that the 5 criteria were being met and there was a continuing fall in the number of new cases, I was prepared to take it at face value. But then it turned out that the 'R' value in some parts of the country was '1': not close to '1', but actually at '1'. 

Surely there's a contradiction there? It means that in some areas, the slightest change will cause a fresh increase, and the "Track and Trace" procedures to cope with that sort of localized increase aren't properly in place yet. 

It all feels very risky, and I got the growing impression today that the government knows it. They seemed to be preparing the ground regarding who to blame if it all goes wrong: the scientists for their "guidance", and the public for not following the rules properly... 

at what point at 11pm last night did we hit level one, in fact in a lot of area's we are still bordering on level four. 

This is really interesting, it's funny independent journalists can actually investigate and the likes of the BBC, SKY and ITV journalists with loads of resources can't be ar*ed, this is precisely why I do not watch mainstream news channels.

If this is true, I honestly do not know how Cummings can keep is job, unless it's covered up by the mainstream media.

Hi Moonie I’m listening to it as well ......and my language is a lot stronger than yours ....I would like today it’s unbelievable, but with all we’ve seen over the last few months it’s sadly very , very believable And

IF YOU WANT PROOF THAT PEOPLE ARE JUST NOT LISTENING TO THE ADVICE

Have a look at this video I took on Friday. I was absolutely gobsmacked  that this was taking place in the center of town, on a main road!

Not a police officer to be seen. Not a great deal of social distancing, although there was some. BUT come on, why do these 20 odd year olds think holding a unauthorised music event is a good idea. 

Check out my video here: https://youtu.be/BxXBPZgb0jM

Over here I have read a couple of news reports saying Boris can’t get rid of Cummings. Boris is the figurehead, the puppet. It’s Cummings government and he controls no 10, and all the major appointments there have been made by him and are loyal to him. 

My brother and sister, usually at opposite ends of the political spectrum, both agree he has jeopardized the whole lockdown and that the governments handling of the pandemic is shambolic. 

You could be right Roxan ....and yes , the Cummings fiasco has managed to put people from all sides of the political spectrum on the same page 

Jenny Harries insisted it would be obvious that the callers aren't scammers as they will sound... "professional"

Me: Hi, this is Petunia from track and trace calling are you Chelsea, in Essex'? 

Chelsea 'Yes, it's Chelsea'

Me 'Can you confirm your date of birth'?

Chelsea ' 06/06.96'

Me 'unfortunate, can you confirm your postcode'

Chelsea 'CM1 ***'

Me 'finally, can you provide your memorable number'?

Chelsea 'I can't remember giving one' 

Me 'oh dear, I can give you a clue if you want me to'

Chelsea 'thank you, that would be so helpful'

Me ' it's the nine digit number after your sort code on the right side of your debit card'

Chelsea 'oh right, I'll just get it' rustles in handbag '126456779'

Me 'Can I just confirm it's 126456779'?

Chelsea 'yes, that's correct'

Me 'I can confirm you have been in contact with someone who tested positive for Covid-19. You must stay in your home for the next fourteen days, keep washing your hands' 

Me 'oh and by the way on no account go out for anything, not even your bank, hope you don't develop it, have a nice day' 

A city council has called for more powers from government to implement its own lockdown, after huge crowds have filled its parks and beaches.

Brighton and Hove City Council said local people feel "unsafe" and unable to enjoy their own area.

Coronavirus in Scotland: New lockdown laws warning after weekend breaches

Image copyright Getty Images

Scotland's coronavirus guidelines could be enforced by new laws if "even a minority" continue to flout them, Nicola Sturgeon has said.

The first minister relaxed restrictions north of the border on Friday, allowing more people to meet up while outdoors.

She said the "vast majority" had complied with recommendations not to travel and to keep gatherings small.

But Ms Sturgeon said it was clear that not everyone had complied, with police dispersing 797 gatherings on Saturday.

And with car traffic trebling at some beauty spots, the first minister said she would not hesitate to put restrictions on group size and travel distance into law.

It was always going to happen ....people are just so darn blasé ....which is fine , if it only affects them....but it’s the poor  Innocent devils they infect If they end up catching the bliddy virus 

It's all a bit of a joke. At this rate we are going to be very little better off than if we had done nothing much in the first place!

I agree EFFT 

Hancock thinks we're all zipped up the back - what a useless balloon. That was pathetic. As for the latest test and trace fiasco, two well trained springer spaniel sniffers would yield better results than his 25,000. Joint biosecurity centre doesn't yet exist and Iggy Pop wants his Stooges back!

It's a banana republic.

When the economy truly goes belly up they'll only have themselves to blame.

This is crazy - what are people thinking??

111 people dead in last 24hrs ... if this was a murderer wandering the country randomly killing people, they can't be stopped and can't be seen ... would it be smiles all round from the Gov ?

It's like everything is suddenly ok

I guarantee another spike - i hope it's not in schools

Today claiming that there are 111 new deaths However, Yesterday total death 38.489 Today total death 39.045 That's an increase of 556 !!

It's enough to make you cry!

that is correct Velvet, the ON number for today was 556, Handcock managed to lose 445 dead people 

Coronavirus: New lockdown laws in England make it illegal for couples living apart to have sex indoors.

New coronavirus laws in England have made it illegal for couples who live in different homes to have sex indoors and stay overnight.

The Health Protection Regulations previously banned people leaving home without “reasonable excuse”, but the provision has been replaced by stringent curbs on where people can sleep and gather together.

The law, which will be laid in parliament on Monday, says: “There is a gathering when two or more people are present together in the same place in order to engage in any form of social interaction with each other, or to undertake any other activity with each other.”

The answer must then be to do it outdoors. 

...obviously on your own land and not being overlooked so as to outrage public decency.

EC, we discussed this last night, and it was overwhemly voted in favour by Baz and Yogi that hanky panky in the potting shed was fine. If you can drive to Barnard Castle to test your eyes with a four year old child in the back, testing your bits in a potting shed is quite acceptable 🤣🤣🤣🤣

This is Major Dom to Clown Control
I'm stepping through the office door
And I'm driving in a most peculiar way
Can I please get her back inside? Theresa May

Am I sitting deadpan
Far above the plebs
Planet Earth is Covid blue
And there's nothing I will do
