Well, it's certainly against the rules, but we need to get it into perspective. There were no spikes in the virus after the furore about those crowded beaches. It's indoor environments that really carry the risk. People keep forgetting that.

I have the same opinion about all yobs and hooligans.

It's just quicker and cheaper than the Royal Mail. Nothing to be worried about unless you're a postie.

You're not wrong sir, what I don't get is with all the millions of people vaccinated why the hell do they still go on about the virus wreaking havoc and taking off again, I thought the vaccines were supposed to protect us from this, so why the constant calls for staying at home and be bored to death or we'll just fine you, absolute bullshit.

We aren’t going to have the entire adult population vaccinated twice until the autumn. Until we get there, there will be unvaccinated people capable of transmitting the virus. Even once we are vaccinated there will be some vaccinated people who can still carry it and some people who can still get sick. Also every person who carries the virus is an environment where it can multiply and mutate. Mutations have the potential to escape the vaccine and put us back at square one. So scientifically the ideal solution is to minimise opportunities for transmission for as long as possible. But the present plans allow a large number of unvaccinated people to start mixing. That’s the risk.

Re: Coronavirus
We have a program, we have milestones and dates. It's not as fast as some would like, some would say it's glacial.
I can understand the reasoning behind the 5 week intervals, we should just stick with the plan, and we should all be out if it in June. 3 and a bit months and a normal summer awaits.
