> Mr Johnson encouraged people to discuss the issue with their neighbours, rather than going directly to the authorities.
Three options:
1) You get on well with your neighbours, in which case you're probably going to say nothing at all
2) You don't get on well with your neighbours, in which case you're either going to say nothing or call the police - not go round and have a word yourself, unless you're the confrontational type, because it's not going to end well is it?
3) You don't know your neighbours, in which case going round to inform them they're breaking the law is not a great start and is just a little bit holier than thou - as if they didn't realise they were breaking the law, and you did.
Johnson's role is not to invoke Animal House ...
... but to show leadership, which he and his ministers have completely failed to do. What a prize prat he is.

> “I have never much been in favour of sneak culture, myself," Mr Johnson told The Sun.
So he starts by accusing people who call the police when observing lawbreaking of being "sneaks".
> “What people should do in the first instance is obviously if they are concerned is raise it with their friends and neighbours."
He then tells people what they should do.

here's what she ACTUALLY said
Asked whether members of the public should report their neighbours to the police, Ms Patel told Sky News: “Well, that’s your call. That’s a choice of yours. The government advice is pretty clear: people should not be gathering in more than six people.”
Pressed again, the cabinet minister said: “If I was – I’m rarely at home – but if I saw something that was inappropriate, then quite frankly I would effectively call the police, or if it was in a social setting as well.”
“It’s not about dobbing in neighbours. I think it’s all about us taking personal responsibility. If there was a big party taking place it would be right to call the police.”
“Anyone who is effectively defying the rules, they will be helping to spread coronavirus. That is not a good thing, and obviously we all have a role to play. We’re all taking personal responsibility. We all have to be conscientious to one another.”
When quizzed on the issue on BBC Breakfast, Ms Patel said she did not spend her time “looking into people’s gardens”, but added: “I think anybody would want to take responsibility and ensure we’re not spreading this awful disease and therefore if I saw gatherings or more than six people clearly I would report that.”
Asked whether two families of four stopping for a chat on the way to the park constituted “mingling” the Home Secretary said in a separate interview on BBC Radio 4’s Today programme: “It is mingling. I think it is absolutely mingling.”
She went on: “You have got to put this in the context of coronavirus and keeping distance, wearing masks. The rule of six is about making sure that people are being conscientious and not putting other people’s health at risk.
“Mingling is people coming together – that’s my definition of mingling.”
Speaking on Monday, the National Police Chiefs’ Council chairman Martin Hewitt denied that enforcement of the new relied on people “snitching” or “grassing” on their friends and neighbours, adding: “I think what it relies on is all of us being responsible.
“We all have a responsibility to do what we can do, to take the steps that are required to stop the transmission and to abide by regulations so we can prevent this disease moving further through the country.”
