" ! expect the public will use their common sense !!!!"

Some hope Boris. I would forgive the rescue services to walk away after the second display of crass stupidity.

There's always a hardcore of idiots who ignore what is advice for their wellbeing.
Unfortunately there's no vaccine for stupidity and I fear the same type of behaviour may happen in Scotland shortly.
The guy who jumped in the river should have been arrested, named and shamed. Then hit with a bill for the double rescue.
I have said this before and its not a happy thing to say but I think that whenever the pub restrictions were eased, this was going to happen pretty much regardless of anything that could be said or done. The only hope is to get through this silliness quickly and as safely as possible.
er damn
I thought that someone wd point out
since it is just past mid-summer
it should be aestivation
its actually neither. Even though its called hibernation or aestivation, its not actually triggered by the season but by the temperature. Tortoises don't aestivate in summer unless the temperature becomes too high, similarly hibernating species don't hibernate just because its winter but because the temperature becomes too low.
This is tiresome really.
What did you expect him to say:
“I’m sure you’re all going to go out and beheld like eejits”
?

As I said before anyway, the vulture have been hovering waiting to pounce on this sort of thing. It doesn’t seem to have been as bad as some were ... hoping?
When it all washes out the man's got to let the country off the leash to generate income.

Any but the most wilful would say that it's not his fault that citizens are incapable of behaving like rational human beings.

He's still a complete knob though.
-- answer removed --
I don't think one incident means Boris's faith was misplaced. Indeed, it could be argued that this one incident proves that 99.9% of people acted responsibly.
Well, Boris' faith wasn't misplaced around here. Everyone behaved perfectly well as did, I suspect, most areas outside some city centres. There will always be idiots unfortunately, but it would not be fair to reimpose sanctions on all.
There’s a very dangerous and stupid trend called * tombstoning* where for a bet ,someone punches you square in the face or jumps from a bridge into the river and other ugly stuff, it happened with someone here, he’d been drinking in a ‘Spoons bar on the quayside and decided to *tombstone* from Newcastles Swing bridge , these muppets should be fined on the spot for their idiocy !
// Even though its called hibernation or aestivation//

er there is no getting away from the fact that the words come from Hibernia - not Ireland - altho some posts read as tho they do but winter - and aestivus

jesus this is another fun thread - I need a drink !
tombstoning is not new at all. it's just been exposed more due to the MSM excess COVID reporting looking for anything to knock people.

Second, see you manged to get a dig in to the 'Spoons. I wonder if you would have named the pub if it was something else? Also I guess you ust have been with the person all night to know it was the Spoons fault/?
Got to feel sorry for these landlords ...

Coronavirus: Pubs close after positive tests
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-53315702
the landlady who er called 'time'
that is told her customers they MAY have been infected

was Jess Brown of the LIghthouse - let us hear it for Jess who realised that she wd have to call herself because the track and trace was so crap

zummerzet and darzet lead the way in common sense
oh and when the 90 customers called to have themselves tested ( it is now 4 days)
they appear to have been told ..... dont call us we will call you ! by track and trace

anway 90 certainly have NOT been tested
