How the hell will that be enforced?

Masks are very very dangerous. There are serious long term health implications to brain cells.

He’s got a mate who has moaned that the newly created novelty face covering industry is taking business away from him hasn’t he?

Shhhhhh Jeremy

SandraDunn1955 Jeremy still popping his head up to keep an eye on the leadership. Whereas Michael Gove has disappeared up Vines a-se.

The key word is “Former”, former for a reason!

Make them free.

That's why he is former

Soon we're all going to wear a hazmat suit just to leave our homes.

Or has he got shares in a manuf of them !

Special disposal bins on streets then required or fill up general waste bins if lucky enough not to b throw on the ground.

Why are, the 'new strains' smaller?! Utter drivel.

i agree with this statement

Why don't they just close supermarkets....or is that stupid?

Medical mask 😷 are on the floor everywhere ! No more pollution

So the masks we have all been told to use for the last year are now ineffective who would have thought that, give it another year the vaccine will be useless and you will have to stay 6m from folk, fucking farce 😂😂😂

So the supermarket workers are going to inspect everybody's face covering as they come through doors are they? And the said face coverings will be supplied to us ? such scare tactics make me sick.

Does his mate make ALL the medical grade masks, like?

I wear 2masks 3 layers each and one with a filter surely that’s ok

Jeremy Hunt ...... ahhhh, is that Cockney rhyming slang 🤔

EndUKLockdown1 what a cnt

EndUKLockdown1 The same guy who wanted everyone to be tested twice a week in exchange for freedom passes, forgetting how impractical that is for millions of people, let alone the logistics of it. Hunt needs to stop trying to make a name for himself.

So I'm assuming sky is 110% behind this one too. Must be the agenda for the next few weeks.

I presume he’ll be paying for them then?

EndUKLockdown1 Jeremy also joins calls for a leadership bid. We see you!

That would be a very effective measure. Which means that the govt won't even consider it or only consider it when it's no longer useful.
