Because a certain section of UK society believe they can do anything they want and there won't be any consequences to them .

Wait a while Fire if things start to look as though the law doesn't exist .

This country is far from perfect but certain things can be relied upon .

Society won't break down because the military will be deployed and they will be given what ever powers they need to control the country .

Some of us older lads under very different circumstances have had a taste of the state when push came to shove .

There's only one winner .

A few troops stood at the checkout in Tesco and people will buy only what they are allowed .

Trust me they will .

Yep when someone puts a bayonet up your arse and says put that bog roll back you do it!XD

One of the things i am surprised about so far is that there has been no looting. You would think because people are staying at home more house burglaries would be down and burglars would be moving into empty city centres to nick stuff. Perhaps it will come

It's the lowest it's been for 400 years and they're planning to cut it even more, to around 60,000 to 65,000.

I refer to my previous point about the size of the army, is there enough of them to be able to do this?

When the government give them the power to play it as they see it with no consequences to them because the state decides what the rules of engagement are you don't need as many numbers as you probably think you do .

You are in totally different territory fire , the law is with them not you , they can do whatever they want to control the situation and the government will back them 100% .

There's no where to go mate .

I'm fairly certain this kind of conversation will have taken place already and contingency plans made .

They will have done the scenario .

The law is whatever the state want it to be in a situation like we are facing .

You've no rights if the state decide you haven't .

" it's against the law for four of you to travel in a car from South Yorkshire in to Nottinghamshire "

" Since When "

"' Since I decided it was so turn around or I'll arrest you "

This happened to me .

Try arguing with that Fire .

Havent the Gov changed this plan? Imperial College report said if we do it this way 250,000 people die.

4 week ago my family and I had a cough sore throat fever and shortness of breath, so I could have already had it. What gets me is I will continue to be partial wary and on lock down even though I may have already become immune

You can’t just volunteer for something like this, you’d need to be vetted for one.
