To ask if you see your neighbours having too many people over at christmas will you report them?

[ShesMadeATwatOfMePam]

Just that really. Will you actually report your neighbours if you see they have over 6 people at christmas, if the rule of 6 is still in place?

Yabu: yes i will report them
Yanbu: i wouldn't report

From my point of view, i wouldn't report.

No definitely not. There will be 8 at my house on christmas day to, sorry not sorry

@AibuTellMe

No, except 1 neighbour who said they reported our other neighbour at Eid when they had family over. If she has more than 6 I'm reporting 😂

She told you about it? Yikes. Silly cow deserves all she gets then. I saw my neighbours breaking the rules for Eid but I kept mum.

I wouldn't report anyone after the damage Dominic Cummings did. The government can fuck off if it things I'm playing to their double standard tune.

Absolutely not. Nor would I at any other time.

No. But there are different levels of rule breaking.

Eg I would not give two shits about:

• the family with 3 or 4 kids who have grandma & grandad over on xmas day
• Two households coming together (eg might be 8 or 9 people total, including children

What I might judge strongly (not sure I would have the balls to actually report):

• People having huge groups of extended family visiting where they clearly cannot distance even remotely, several households coming together etc.
• people having parties

No if they want to risk there lives an there loved ones then thats there choice they know what they are doing is a risk so leave them to it. I would no to stay as far away as possible from any of my neighbours if I saw this going on but certainly wouldn't report it got better things to be doing

I'm not going to report anyone but I am going to give everybody a wide berth, 2m+, because so many people aren't sticking to the rules the only thing I can do is ensure I and my family do by keeping well away from everybody!

No. In fact we’ll be having them round on Christmas Day (making us 8 in total). It’s crazy that we could have the adults in one house and the kids in the other and be legal, but not all be in the same house together without breaking the law. It’s not increasing our level of interaction/risk one iota.

If I see just a few more people than they should have then no. If it was a party with obviously lots and lots of people then maybe?

I'm following all COVID rules to the letter. I understand that the virus doesn't stop for Jesus' birthday. However, the worst day of my entire life was on a Christmas Day and I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

Absolutely not. I’m just not that kind of person.

a rave? yes.

or a huge party - yes

family = christ no.

If they had supported Boris Johnson I would. None of the neighbours of where I will be at Christmas did though, and I don't expect any of them to have more than six around in any case.

I would never ever report my neighbours. We're in a tier 3 area and next door had people round for drinks last night.

I have anxiety and the only way I know to deal with that is to stick to the rules 100%.

But I feel so, so lonely, and the people who are basically acting as normal make me angry because I'm jealous.

No I wouldn’t report them.

I'll be the neighbour breaking "the rules" so definitely won't report anyone else for doing it.

Definitely. I have already alerted the police to those neighbours who might be tempted to exceed the 'Rule of 6'and, of course on Christmas Day, I'll be letting the tyres down of any vehicle that I suspect may have brought a miscreant to a family party.

No but then I'm not a curtain twitching busybody.

Hell no

@LindaEllen have you got your support bubble? As far as I know that can still go on for singles and single parents.
Also. Bet you they were screaming on fb about students...

No.

One or two days of people over won’t change jack. Hopefully people won’t be subjecting at rusk family members just for Chrustmas.

People that have others over all the time ...I’d judge but wouldn’t report. My vulnerable family are being sensible and have reduced contact all round.

No

Ffs no I wouldn't. Anyone know why I can't vote btw? I must have turned it off by accident

I've never in my life counted how many people are going into my neighbours house on any one day. I'm not about to start now on Christmas day of all days.

No way, I am in a tier 2 area but still going in family houses. We social distance mask up and sanitise literally everywhere else we go and don't work or wfh. I think our chances of transmitting it are still low same as they were a month ago when we were allowed to be in the same room.
If I felt like it would make a difference maybe I'd stick to the rules but with the blatant flouting I see all the time on social media etc I do not see the point any more.
