Guilty until proven innocent and more worryingly guilty even if innocent.

[Billie18]

We are meant to be innocent until proven guilty and free to act within the law without fear of harassment or prosecution. So why are people shopping in pairs, exempt from wearing masks, going for a walk with a coffee and other perfectly legal things feeling the need to justify themselves, subject to harassment or even being fined or prosecuted? This sets a very dangerous and worrying precedent.

The government has engineered a blame game, and turned people against each other. The more fines, the more people giving anecdotal tales of rule breaking, the more we can blame the spread of the virus and consequent deaths on each other. It all detracts from their ineptitude and failure to get a grip on the problem before it snowballed.

It's all part of the government's game of "blame the plebs, turn them against each other, so they don't look at us".

The Derbyshire Police saga has the government's fingerprints all over it. They probably instructed forces to "make a few examples of people".
