This Mask Fiasco!

[baggieal]

It’s ironic that we have to wear a mask, not to protect ourselves, but to protect the ignorant tw@s that don’t.

Masks are to stop the wearer’s own germs getting airborne and offer little protection to the wearer from others.

Don't disagree Exiled but some genuinely can't wear masks and this excludes the t wats called employees in shops and supermarkets who almost stand on top of you stacking/refilling shelves. Perhaps these employees have super powers which makes them exempt from catching the virus.

Masks are the tip of the surface. Social gatherings which includes all those nutters campaigning in London for black lives matters - football celebrations - raves - ethnic large weddings/funerals etc are the main route to infections! Some liberal do gooder who was most likely in London with thousands of others complaining of Winston Churchill most likely tuts at some poor person who has breathing difficulties who can't wear a mask in a shop. You can't make it up!

Seriously? I must admit this news has left me somewhat flabbergasted given you do such a good job of hiding it Al' 🤣 .

I am as understanding as the next person. Now where was I? I would just dump all those f uckers coming on dinghies back on French soil and..........

Serious question though baggieal and others reading this... since all of these gatherings that have happened (including the bournemouth beach chaos) - do we know exactly the rise in cases directly from these gatherings? Has this been reported anywhere? My guess is we actually don’t know. Which begs the question, why hasn’t anybody official monitored and investigated the effects of these gatherings? Hand in cock the other day said wearing masks isn’t that effective and so the UK won’t apply this to the workforce like they have in France.

The usual motives - several individuals will earn millions from vaccine & they are government employees . power, panic nothing noble & remember no politician or civil servant will suffer any financial hardship - s the saying goes "they have no skin in the game".

Bill Gates Fauci - check out their pursuit of law that makes vaccine companies immune from prosecution


And the numbers are nowhere near pandemic in cases or deaths something you did not address

This is bordering on a conspiracy theory mate. If you are right then why don’t you go holidaying somewhere where there’s a large crowd.. say Wuhan that had a festival the other day. If you make it back unaffected, i’ll then believe you mate.

Good question! I suppose with the large gatherings people came from all over the country so hard to evaluate. The track and trace system though is a joke - scan this bar code if you wish - write your name in a book if you wish etc!

Now a question for you Regis - why are areas high with infections such as Bradford - Oldham - Luton - Leicester - Kirklees etc etc. Harrogate for example is less than 30 mins from Bradford and there’s next to nothing in terms of infections. Likewise Harpenden near Luton does not have any issues. Please could you explain your thought process?

I know already the point you are trying to make and based on what has been made out in the public domain you’d automatically assume the common factor here being Asian population/communities.
With those areas you’ve highlighted, well what about the other highly populated Asian areas up and down the country? Surely by now all of those would be reporting high number of cases right now. If you put the disproportionate statistic that asians are having it worse, given that we are 5-6 months in to this, you’d think those areas you’ve not included above would be in the critical stages? Something isn’t right. Why isn’t there a spike in cases in East London?

Possibly because some areas are more congested than others! It’s well known Regis in places like Leicester illegal manufacturing has gone on for years with slave labour and there will be zero social distancing. Likewise in places like Bradford it’s beds and mattress manufacturing in third world conditions. Sadly it comes down to demographics and education.

I say education - if you counted the people in say Waitrose and Marks and Spencer’s without masks - it would be far less than your basic cheap supermarkets. Why is that? In this scenario that’s also pointing the finger at many white British!

And that’s what it comes down to education or whether they are being informed, but from the comments on here you’d assume everyone is making it to be down ethnicity?
I wouldn't be surprised if Brum goes into some form of lockdown because of the number of dumb flucks there and I see why Lye is.
I’ve heard a number of chicken factories also having to be shut.. now you can imagine the level of education those workers have to be doing those jobs or whether they’ve even been informed of the current climate.. who knows. From what I know a high proportion of eastern europeans work there.

If the rules aren’t laid down in law then what hope do we have. You don’t see Hand in coco making his daily statements but he goes and appoints a new head for the new PHE.
What’s really funny is, it seems like every other person we all know is capable of making a mask. Something the government have not bothered to award a contract to? Hence no need for them to make this law. Corrupt.

You are just the sort of ignorant plank that has caused this aggressive behaviour towards those who do not wear a muzzle. Just because you see someone who is not wearing it it doesn't necessarily mean that person is a 'tw@t'

The person not wearing one as a right to be protected in a shop, by law, from the muzzle wearing zealots like yourself.

Any shop etc who adopts the mask wearing must put in place, by law, a policy requiring customers not to challenge others for not wearing a face covering and to treat them with the same respect that they would show to others who are wearing a face covering

OR displaying prominent and clear signage giving notice of that policy

OR enforcing the policy by reasonable intervention when any breach is brought to the shops attention AND where necessary removing from the shop premises and refusing to serve customers who do not observe the policy

All of the above is within the Equality Act 2010. So next time you decide to bully and harangue those without a muzzle and call em tw@ts just bear in mind it could be you who gets fined.

I would just like to add that i missed out the caveat - if you see someone not wearing a piece of sweaty cloth on their face it is because they may be claiming an exemption on health grounds as laid down by law, so all of the above applies. The Corona regulations for mask wearing do not trump the Equality Act.
