Well if that's the case it could be said that the law is an Ass then , Just a shame that we have to break your interpretation of the law to protect the rights of some people .

As the other thread is wandering a bit, i thought I'd make a thread where people can post links to OFFICIAL information on the Corona Virus situation.

FACTS are more important than conjecture.

The hour early for the disabled and elderly is brilliant! As a disabled person myself, this is a really nice thing as the shops are hard enough to get around in without the crazys. I am not even sure why the community has gone so mad with shopping. I feel sorry for my dad, as we are from the UK many years ago, Nana is very unwell and he is due to go over to England to see her next week. But now, due to this virus, he likely is not going to be able to, or risk being stuck/exposed to it if it travel there is still allowed, yet she might not be around when it is all safe again.
