Cornwalls beaches are like a toilet sprinkled with plastics thanks to the PM jumping the gun. Naivety is driving this ridiculous government

Hopefully not the same models used for lockdown, time will tell more than a model as the infection period to showing symptoms is approx. 14 days. So from those days when the beaches were swamped to 14 days time from the protests, we may see an increase?

It makes sense but left to this clown anything could go wrong or nothing happen

The problem with that is the RRate (or what they've shown us so far) is 2 weeks old so the damage would've already been done by the time they lockdown 🙄 Covid_19 tories🤡

That’s London fucked hoaxvirus

Modelling suggest Modelling? No facts? Modelling is flawed. Especially the gates funded imperial college model. So this is a load of scaremongering bollocks. End lockdown NOW AND GET BACK TO OLD NORMAL. YOUR SCAM LOCKDOWN IS OVER BorisJohnson NicolaSturgeon MattHancock

Populate tourist attractions that are experiencing a rise then that area must be protected. If it means stopping are turn day visitors home then so be it. Broadcast where NOT to go if they do then fine them. Including any MP

Expect more dithering and indecision from Hancock Lockdown NOW. It's not 0.7 to 0.9 and he knows it's over 1.0 but just Johnson's servant.

We have data and new cases and hospital admissions are falling everywhere. Why do we need these ridiculous models anymore?

yes in england.

Just protect those at risk, no one else has to bother!

You can guess where and heavily populate by.

Just like modelling worked so well the first time

How regional is regional? Yorkshire and North East lumbered together, yet the cases in North East rising much higher than Yorkshire.

R is rising everywhere and above 1 in some places We should be in a national lockdown to stop the coronavirus, not easing up

... They are still following their crystal ball ‘modelling’ when it’s proven time and time again to be spectacularly flawed at the detriment of the population for generations to come (which at this point if we have any future generations) Let’s follow REAL, UNBIASED science now

Looking forward to seeing Dominic Cummings speeding past police roadblocks like he's in the Cannonball Run.

London back on lockdown in a couple of weeks thank to violent BlackLivesMatter THUGS. I hope they've f**ked their black lives up good and proper.

This will be good....
