Interesting times ahead.

He's independent of political party so I guess he is protesting and hoping it will help his popularity, whilst knowing that the Government has the ultimate power here.

Coronavirus: SNP MP Margaret Ferrier apologises for travelling on public transport after positive COVID-19 test
The SNP's Margaret Ferrier said in a statement there was "no excuse for my actions" and "I apologise unreservedly for breaching COVID-19 restrictions by travelling this week when I shouldn't have".
"On Saturday afternoon, after experiencing mild symptoms, I requested a COVID-19 test which I took that day," she said.
"Feeling much better, I then travelled to London by train on Monday to attend Parliament as planned.
"This was wrong, and I am very sorry for my mistake.
"On Monday evening I received a positive test result for COVID-19.
"I travelled home by train on Tuesday morning without seeking advice. This was also wrong and I am sorry. I have been self-isolating at home ever since.

I did that this morning when I nipped to the shop for milk. It was a mistake, nothing more, nothing less.

I don’t think it was Corbyn’s fault, to be honest. Diane Abbott said he was well within the maximum number allowed.

Christmas will be interesting. People round here have no intention of keeping to groups of six for Christmas dinner. I don’t think they have enough inspectors to catch anything more than a very small minority of the population and I dare say that not many will want to work on Christmas Day!
Don’t the police need a warrant to come into your premises without permission?

She has had the whip suspended. By the far the worst example of COVID rule breaking from a politican we've yet seen.

Or stayed at her 2nd London based home. Or more importantly remained in Scotland in the first place, when she had symptoms.

Or...
She could have self-isolated in her London accommodation, in line with Government guidelines...
Re "entry into premises" - https://www.college.police.uk/Docume...egislation.pdf
Quote:
Entry into property
Police need a warrant before they can enter and search premises.
However, the Coronavirus Act 2020 has provisions within it to cover the power of entry in certain exceptional circumstances.
Schedule 21 of the Coronavirus Act allows an officer to enter a property where they have reasonable grounds to suspect that a person within is potentially infectious, and they need to direct or remove the person for screening and assessment.
Officers must be sure it is both necessary and proportionate to enter a property on these grounds. They must confer with a public health officer unless it is not practicable to do so due to exceptional circumstances.
|
I would imagine Schedule 21 might get invoked quite frequently...

She's also reported herself to the police. It will be interesting what action they will/will not take.
