There we go guys, get yourself a dog lead and collar and get out there.

Used to have a girlfriend who would ask me to put a dog collar and lead on here. Then she would get on all fours wearing a maids outfit and I would lead her around the room a couple of times I was shocked at first but soon got used to it! Its a mad world.

Barking.

That briefing encapsulated the Tories' response to the pandemic : bluster, waffle, not answering the question, and Priti Patel who acted like a malfunctioning Stepford wife.

I’m not on about people driving to the likes of the Lakes for “ exercise “ I’m talking about the cyclist who leaves his house and puts a 50 mile plus shift in, the distance runner, who goes out for a couple of hours or more.

Normal everyday things are slowly being demonised and the herd are gleefully jumping on board.

Sitting on a park bench is now a crime, driving to your local park to feed the ducks with kids is against the rules and worthy of a £200 fine.

Waiting outside a kiosk for a coffee could now be banned.

It’s a very slippery slope.

It’s ridiculous.

Well asking people to wear masks in a shop isn’t a straightforward as the news would have you think.

Sake, some proper ball bags out today just wanting the argument.

Bloody just been called to deal with one fella who quoted the equality act at me FFS.

Absolute selfish annoying idiots. The super markets need to be backed up fully on this, the idiots should be banned from the shop like thieves are, with their pictures plastered all over the place.

I've just been in Morrison's and every single person had a face mask, first time I've ever seen that, this could be a game changer..
Just a shame its 10 months late.

Having been quoted the Equality Act, it would appear that solicitors are happy to make claims on behalf of these people..
Couldn’t make this up really.

Repeat the famous lines from Full Metal Jacket from Gunnery Sgt. Hartman to him regarding equality. "Here you're all equally worthless..."

@roydo would the link be allowed in this case?

No idea on the website, I was just looking up what he quoted at me.
Everyone is a smart arse nowadays and knows their ‘rights’ don’t they ?

Im sure I went down the wrong route when he refused to leave the store when asked, by explaining that it was private property and the fact that he’s now been asked to leave is therefore trespassing.

On the plus side, more specific signage is hitting the stores tomorrow and our big boss is doing a stint at the entrance to see what it’s really like. It’s genuinely a tiny minority of people who are pricks and the feedback today was mainly ‘this should have been done months ago !’

I asked my wife about this for our local Tesco, she said everyone wears a mask and that the store give them to anyone who turns up without one....
