Derbyshire police seem particularly keen on this , deploying car with blues and twos down streets at night with loudspeakers blaring out that people need to stay in the homes, on empty streets ! Threatening all kinds of penalties for not adhering to the rules, making it sound to some like its a criminal offence to be out after dark 'without good reason' in effect declaring a curfew. Well beyond the boundaries of government guidelines. Yes lets be sensible, but some are more keen than others to embrace a police state.

There basically is a curfew now, big shops shut at 8pm so why are people out after dark? Might be someone walking a dog, odd one coming or going to work, otherwise you should be home.

Rather a lot of people going to and from work round my way then good job the stories of police pulling people over for random checks of their intentions dont appear to be true. Like I say , a sensible interpretation of the guidelines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
