Some are denouncing the closure of parks:

Some say that it's okay to sunbathe when you're ten feet away from the next group:

If you go out with people from your own household and do not interact with anyone else, how will this lead to the spread of Covid-19?

I’m a little surprised at your comment TTT, as I thought you worked in banking, and by dint of that assumed you understood economics.
I’m in finance and am considered a key worker, because the wheels of commerce absolutely must continue to turn. Anybody who isn’t considering the economy at the the moment, like Zacs-master, is a fool.

//I think the idea of stopping people travelling any distance in cars is to prevent them taking the virus from one area to another.//
And it's also to lessen the possibility of having a Road Traffic Accident where the emergency services and medical facilities will have to treat you rather than virus victims.
There are many aspects of this lockdown that have not been properly thought through and seem to have been written on the bag of a fag packet over a pint in the pub (before they were closed down). They are not going to be able to keep people at home in this way for any length of time. Come May or soon after people will have been locked down for six weeks or more, the weather will be considerably warmer, the days longer, the infection rate will still be on the up (because unless they choose to die of starvation, most people simply cannot help but mix with others) and many people will be asking themselves what the point of it all is.
Then there is the point made by DeskDiary. The economy by that time will be in absolute ruins, many small businesses will have gone to the wall never to reopen. The current strategy means that, one way or another, this will not end well unless the virus simply "dies out" - and there's not much to suggest that is likely.

Most accidents happen in the home. Best get folk out safe and onto the near deserted roads where the risk of an accident is greatly reduced.
These excuses get less and less believable as authorities get more desperate to justify the overreaction. They should concentrate on those flouting the 2m rule and forming groups, not look for easy low hanging fruit tackling folk acting responsibly.
David Davis made some good points recently.

// If you want to sunbathe or barbecue most people have a back garden //
A lot do, a lot don’t.
If you live in a city, or a large town, the chances are you live in a high-rise, and your only outdoor space is a common Area or local park.
Today I have entertained a guest in my small garden, who has no such private space. We drank a bottle of red in the evening sunshine, and all was good with the world.

10 to 15 minutes exposure is enough to avoid rickets, slightly longer if you have a darker skin. There are also vitamin supplements. I agree its not ideal but its doable. sticking arms and legs out an open window is a possibility. https:/
