They’re not two metres apart.

There are no mitigating factors.

It’s not even 4th of July yet.

The rules apparently don’t apply yet again.

Above all, why would you think it’s a good idea to be able to play table football in a restaurant? No masks, With all the hollering accompanying it.

I despair.

Is this genuine and taken recently?

Despise the Conservatives but it does seem too unbelievable to be true.

Where and when is the photo from?

Are they applying hand sanitiser there? Confused

If so, then presumably it is recent.

Boris Johnson and Rishi Sunak visit Pizza Pilgrims ahead of the July reopening. The caption was posted in a separate live blog.

Good for them.

Hopefully everyone else will be doing their own self risk assessment from now on. So many people want to be baby fed.

This is literally a non event.

Who cares, OP?

You are clearly just looking for a reason to snipe at Johnson but this is really scraping the barrel.

No, people expect our so called leaders to abide by the rules they set us mere arseholes in a time on global pandemic.

If they can't, then fuck off.

If Johnson thinks it’s OK for reopened restaurants to allow activities like table football, then I fucking despair. Does he have no clue how the virus spreads? Indoor dining is risking enough as it is, never mind communicating loudly at each other while not wearing masks.

We’ll be shutting down bars and restaurants again soon after they reopen, just like the US is as we speak.

Don’t agree jasjas, (Some) people want spoon feeding, it’s pathetic.

Bizarre that people are so short sighted they don’t realise that this is the road to disaster!

Anyway.... Boris has had Covid so presumably there’s very little risk in that interaction.

@ThroughThickAndThin01

Of course, thats why we have leaders, CEO's Generals etc etc

Once these people lose credibility, then we have anarchy.... so Brixton, Bournemouth etc etc.

It’s not just Brixton, Bournemouth, Glasgow, it’s worldwide, and that’s nothing to do with Johnson/Sunak.

Absolutely.

Both will be getting regular screening. We have passed the peak for now.

damage to the economy will have longer lasting effects than Covid itself and people need to start making their own risk assessments according to their situation.

I don't agree with all of their politics but given they are most likely in regular contact with each other already on a daily basis so I can't get upset about them playing table football 1m ish apart for a photo op.
