When all the illegal raves and protests etc are going on down south? The beaches at Brighton , Bournemouth, Dorset and Cornwall are packed I haven't seen any pictures of Blackpool and Southport beaches like this.Heathrow is packed with travellers returning from holiday and London beer gardens are packed, and we in the North are in lockdown. It isn't fair!

"Why Are We In Lockdown In Greater Manchester"

It's because Boris cares more about the North.
it's grim up north.


Re:OP My sister and family live on the edge of Ilkley Moor - horses, fields etc., but because they are technically in Bradford they are subjected to the new restrictions. You are right - it isn't fair. Shouldn't the 18-30s be the ones banned from going out?
Who's being banned from going out?







//When all the illegal raves and protests etc are going on down south? //

You are not suggesting that illegal raves are the monoply of us down South are you? Christ on a crutch what short memory. Only back in June you get a murder and a rape and three stabbings at a illegal rave in Greater Manchester.
GMP have prevented others at private premises as well. This was two days ago.

retrocop I couldn't read the first link because I use an ad blocker. The second link was a rave that happened last month. What I am saying is that we in the North are having a lockdown when the people in the South are doing things where they are not social distancing and yet they are not in lockdown. I haven't seen any figures yet that say how many new cases there have been in different parts of the country, but don't forget the incident that happened on Saturday.

Tonight on the News it was said that should cases rise in other areas then they too would be placed under new restrictions.

It may feel like we have been singled out at the moment but I very much doubt that.
Sorry - wrong thread :-(
Easy done.
This link explains why greater Manchester has been declared a Major Incident due to excessive transmissions of Covid 19.
https://uk.yahoo.com/news/greater-manchester-declares-major-incident-195314785.html
It also highlights lack of common sense and resposibility by certain persons in Greater Manchester.

//Meanwhile, former England midfielder Paul Scholes has been accused of holding a party at his Oldham home to celebrate his son’s 21st on the same day lockdown measures were reimposed across parts of the North West.//

Perhaps, as has been suggested, the ethnic groups, immigrants and offsprings who have no intention whatsoever of adhering to, or even recognizing, your rules, mores, institutions, laws, and even language, and have no desire to integrate.
Silly chap, he could have deferred the party like folk are having to do with wedding receptions.
Whilst certain people from ethnic grouping may be amongst those not observing social distancing the recent concentration on that fact has led to some nasty incidents andd poor reporting.

Such as this photograph, which thankfully was removed.

None of which goes toward maintaining harmony.

I believe the police have had a word with Scholes about having a party the day the new rules came in.Must have be very difficult for those who already had plans in place like weddings etc, to cancel with such short notice.

and no local spike of Covid ( oops a spike is why they are locking down ) but anyway Daisy Nook was not associated wivva spike
Just as Bournemouth wasnt
and it is all to do wiv sunlight

god did you hear the Beeb hack taking apart the white christian 0800 this am, no house parties for Eid and yet you can go to the pub....he whinged in AB fashion
and SHE said - well everyone knows that behaviour at a house party is completely different to the behaviour in the pub .....
and so it si quite possible to see why you allow one and not the other .....
and the interviewee sheepishly agreed ......

and hey - 25% of the bombay slums are testing positive
and only about three have died .....

PP I didn't hear that interview but it doesn't make sense to me why you can go to a pub and yet you can't have a friend or relative to come and sit in your garden with you. It's all stupid imo.
