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

No I will be interpreting the rules as flexibly as possible and supporting as many small businesses as I can. This Lockdown has achieved its aim and now we need to consider the economic impact of knee jerk panic on our children's future

Yes if it gets us out of this more safely without risking a second peak.
But don’t want to missing my family so much and my baby niece is due in that time.

I'm going to be honest and say probably not. Not that I'll be mixing in lots of public places with vulnerable people either but no I will not be sticking to it to the letter.

Most people I have spoken to who say they are very much for the rules actually aren't following them - so I think it's more about people's 'versions' of the rules, that's to say many many people are breaking 'the golden rules'

No, I've hung in there as long as possible but my mental health is rapidly declining. I am becoming a risk to myself and my baby daughter and there is no help or support available via NHS for my PND at present.

Reluctantly yes. But I really really hope it's not another 3 weeks. I really need to see my parents soon.

Yes. And that would include not seeing our son in his care home. It's breaking our hearts but we have to do it, everyone.

No.

After 6 weeks of not seeing my boyfriend or family I will make my own risk assessment and visit them intermittently.
I will adhere to all the other rules but not that one any longer.

No/yes
I will take my daughter to see her best friend, or have them come here as both are really struggling now and are too young (3.5) to really understand why they can't play, plus us parents are starting to struggle to keep them entertained and work.
The rest of the rules i would continue to follow
