    Wearing a face covering in shops and supermarkets in England is to become mandatory from 24 July.
    Those who fail to comply with the new rules will face a fine of up to £100, the government is to announce.
    The move will bring England into line with Scotland and other major European nations like Spain, Italy and Germany


    Us Nigels late to the party again. I wonder if this will be as strictly enforced as on public transport i.e. not at-****ing-all.

    I got myself medically exempt from having to wear a face mask. I wouldn’t dream of walking about like a ****ing ninja.

    I told my GP that they cause me severe distress and I’ll be housebound if I’m forced to wear one.

    Explain why not wanting to wear a face covering is being selfish.

    Quite staggering how many folk lap up this ****e about viruses and face-coverings.

    Absolutely zero evidence that it will help stop the spread, WHO saying that governments have been lobbying them to recommend mask wearing.

    The Left lapping up the Tories imposing house arrest, trashing the economy which will affect the poorest more than others (as per the script) and now imposing mask wearing on us in shops but not in restaurants or bars and not NOW but in 10 days time.

    Does anyone on this ****in forum employ any critical thinking for themselves?

    The virus has fizzled out, it's clear to see. We've had BLM protests, counter protests, VE celebrations, mass beach gatherings, bars open for weeks dahn sath and NO SPIKE, no second wave.

    It's over, the data tells us this.

    Sure.

    You may be asymptomatic and cough on somebody and give them it and they die.

    Selfish.

    It starts with refusing people access to public spaces and shops for not wearing a paper mask or bandana which doesn't do anything.
    Then all shops will be cashless or you need to order with an app.
    I'm going on holiday soon and need a QR code to scan at the airport or I lose my ticket a kind of self certificate
    Most of you have built in contact tracing on your iPhone running in the background and soon they will be rolling out immunity passports.

    Without the vaccine and app you won't be able to go to school or take part in society , most employers will insist you have the immunity passport to go into work.

    And it all starts with this creepy self policing of each other like my train station Greggs fiasco last week .

    They are training us to walk around supermarkets in one direction standing on painted lines like robots and the pressure will slowly get notched up to the extent that not wearing a paper mask that you constantly touch with your hands and keep in your pocket will make you a social pariah or criminal.

    The police already have the power to forcibly remove you from your house if you have been in the vicinity of an "Infected " person thanks to your smartphone and detained for observation at a secure facility.

    The New Normal is just the Chinese social credit system and authoritarian society on steroids .
