How does the vote work?

FudgeBrownie2019 · 16/05/2020 10:48

No, I wouldn't. I wouldn't do it, but it's not my job to police other adults.

Lardlizard · 16/05/2020 10:49

No, none of my business.

Sosounhappy · 16/05/2020 10:49

No this might be what they need to survive lockdown we are all vunerable in different ways

Hedgehog44 · 16/05/2020 10:51

I might feel a bit judgy about it but I guess you don't know why the friend is there. I wouldn't report it though.

alibongo5 · 16/05/2020 10:53

Who would you report to? I'm guessing the police are inundated and can't respond to everything so it would be a waste of time anyway.

Absolutely not. My neighbour has had her dad around quite a few times. She is a single mum with 2 DCs and relys upon his support a lot. If there was a house party going on then that is a different matter.

Snappychat · 16/05/2020 10:53

My best friend is coming to see me tomorrow, I know we shouldn’t but I’m going through an horrendous time at the moment and need her :(

Firecarrier · 16/05/2020 10:53

No

ShanghaiDiva · 16/05/2020 10:54

No.

Waleshasgonecompletelycrazy · 16/05/2020 10:55

Of course not

MrsFogi · 16/05/2020 10:55

Don't be ridiculous!

Goawayquickly · 16/05/2020 10:56

Nope

Ihavechildren · 16/05/2020 10:56

No.

2020IsTheWorseIWantedZombies · 16/05/2020 10:57

No.
Very different to having a friend than a full blown party. They might be socially distancing in their garden or whatever for all you know.

Mawbags · 16/05/2020 10:57

Don’t be a dick

NoCaseToAnswer · 16/05/2020 10:57

You wanted to report carpet fitters yesterday. Focus on you.

Nicknacky · 16/05/2020 10:57

Who are you planning to report them to and what do you expect them to do? There seems to be this mistaken belief that the police can fine people for this.

They can’t.

IHaveBrilloHair · 16/05/2020 10:58

No.

Good god no. My DB has mental health issues and he has been around almost 3 times a week - in the garden though. A party is different but you don’t know anyone’s circumstances

Also, why would you want to. What within or about you considers this an ok thing to do
