Don’t you think you are keeping this going and the sooner you stop the quicker this will all be over. The heads of the most powerful nations on earth and the queen at the G7 didnt wear masks. It emerged today from a whistle blower that masks are not worn in Downing Street. Don’t you think the people who have the ears of the worlds best medical experts would be wearing masks if they were that effective. Clearly they are not needed so for fukc sake take them off and live a normal life. I’d happily argue with absolutely anyone in this world if I thought they were being a prick. To me wearing a mask is like wearing shin pads, i probably won’t get a broken leg but they are available just in case. No biggie, if folks choose not to use one it’s down to them, won’t matter to me because I will have mine on. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Grow the f*ck up. And that’s not aimed at socks but anyone. Like I said I think it’s a massive farce, but I have a little bit of respect for the elderly, those flat out working in the nhs, and other folk who have been suffering through a lot of this. How hard is it to stick a mask on for the time you’re in a shop? Those who don’t, mostly it seems to me, are bell ends and ratty teens who don’t give two sh*ts about anyone but themselves. In a nutshell good post mate 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Was f****d by the Thursday and spent a few days on the couch dozing in and out of sleep. Never bothered with a test so dont know if it was covid but felt f****d. As others have said i dont wear a mask cos I'm worried but I see grandparents in nursery queue with their masks on and if their are doing that they are obviously worried. For me to stick a mask on in queue behind them makes them feel safer then I will. Same with folk onwork with a few of them are quite scared still so will wear one if I'm moving about close to them. Sounds like you had it, I'm shocked how easy it is to catch. I'm 36 and in good health so hopefully it will pass soon. I had my vaccine booked and now cancled it. You can a pack of 7 rapid flow tests on gov website free and they come fast. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If as a population we said enough is enough and we are going to behave just like you elite this would all be over. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I’m not a big fan of it, but feel it’s the respectful thing to do when in public around others who may feel it’s important / people trying to operate a business. I’m not about doing things that make complete strangers feel safe or because they think it’s important. There are literary dozens of reports out there including from the who that say that masks have no effect in this virus. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have thought all along that there are things going on around us that we should be making a song and dance about all the time.......using a mask to show a bit of social solidarity isn’t one of them. I have to say, where I live everyone has got on board all the way along with this thing, be that following regulations, using masks, hand sanitiser, getting vaccinated.....it really has been a collective effort and it feels like it too. We have all been scratching out heads at how the U.K. has cracked on from the get go of this thing.....it’s been a bit embarrassing to be honest as an Englishman. I can’t tell you how many times lads have said to me “what the f**k are they at ?”........and I can only shake my head and say “f****d if I know” 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
