Macron shares some significant blame for that. I wonder if there is any finger pointing going on in the western EU.

The BBC News website has this story:

Quote:
The Co-op has become the latest supermarket chain to say it will not enforce new mask-wearing rules to avoid their staff being abused by customers.

Mask rules were reintroduced in England on Tuesday after concerns about the Omicron coronavirus variant. It's now mandatory to wear them in shops and public transport, among other places.

Supermarkets are taking a light touch approach with Tesco, Aldi, Lidl and Iceland not challenging customers.

Industry body The British Retail Consortium said it is up to police to enforce face mask rules, not retailers.
Seems the class of customer is what is driving this wilful disregard for the law. In Waitrose today, everyone was wearing a mask.
