Just a Yes or No thread there are hundreds on the ins and outs of this.

This morning I read that Matt Hancock is claiming support for an extension is strong amongst the public but that’s not the impression I’m getting from social media

So, will you stick to the rules if lockdown in the UK is extended for another 3 weeks

Yes or No

Yes

MarieQueenofScots · 28/04/2020 10:28

Without a doubt I will follow the rules, I'm not special so don't expect dispensations for what I want to do.

MotherofTerriers · 28/04/2020 10:28

Yes

ABrushWith · 28/04/2020 10:28

Yes

Peridot1 · 28/04/2020 10:28

Yes

Sosadandempty · 28/04/2020 10:28

Judging by the amount of people i see out everyday I would say people arent sticking to the rules as it is, never mind an extension.

^ this - but yes I will stick to the rules for as long as they are in place.

lazylinguist · 28/04/2020 10:28

Yes and it wouldn't occur to me to moan about it. They're not imposing lockdown for fun. I'd be surprised if you get any 'no' answers at all tbh.

GiraffeWithSwag · 28/04/2020 10:28

Yes.

Michelleoftheresistance · 28/04/2020 10:29

Yes

Aposterhasnoname · 28/04/2020 10:29

Yes, but I don’t have to like it.

T0tallyFuckedUpFamily · 28/04/2020 10:30

Yes. I’ll also take precautions for a long time after, as I can’t risk my youngest getting it.

BooFuckingHoo2 · 28/04/2020 10:30

Ok I’ll bite - no I won’t be sticking to it as strictly as I have been as the risk to mine/my family’s mental health is greater for us than that of Coronavirus.

We all get online shopping delivered and don’t go out in public so the risk of us passing it on is minimal.

People will try to follow the rules until their money runs out.
It's a lot easier to stay at home if you have money for food and a garden.

Spikeyball · 28/04/2020 10:31

It's completely possible to be out everyday and be sticking to the rules.

kimlo · 28/04/2020 10:31

yes.

I don't like it but yes. Even if things change it's not going to go back to normal, who knows what we will be able to do even if the rules are loosened slightly.

CrackersDontMatter · 28/04/2020 10:31

Yes

nuttynutjob · 28/04/2020 10:31

Yes. Too many people have died (although I know some people who minimise this and only think of the numbers and not the stories behind the statistics).

User202004 · 28/04/2020 10:32

Yes

But that doesn't mean I support it!

Sparklingbrook · 28/04/2020 10:32

The weather has turned here so nobody will be sitting in the garden sadly.

wishfulthinking101 · 28/04/2020 10:32

Yes

trappedsincesundaymorn · 28/04/2020 10:32

Would that be the actual lockdown rules or MN lockdown rules?

Yes to the former
No to the latter

Freshing · 28/04/2020 10:33

Yes
