resk Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Boris said you should go out for necessities as infrequently as possible. Whether that actually made it into the legislation though is anyone's guess. If it did, I would say a walk to the shop for the paper every day is not going for necessities as infrequently as possible. [emoji2369] As far as I can see it didn't.http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ssi/2020/103/contents/made"(5) In paragraph (4), a reasonable excuse includes the need—(a)to obtain basic necessities, including food and medical supplies for those in the same household (including any pets or animals in the household) or for a vulnerable person and supplies for the essential upkeep, maintenance and functioning of the household or the household of a vulnerable person, or to obtain money,(b)to take exercise, either alone or with other members of their household,"I couldn't find any reference to "you can only use each of these reasonable excuses once in each 24 hour period" or something like that. Anyway, that's the legislation. Advice from government(s) tends to be more stringent but I doubt you could be prosecuted/fined for not obeying govt guidance that isn't backed up by law. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTJohnboy Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 No question from Beth Rigby, or did I miss it? She usually manages to come up with sensible questions like : "When can we expect the rhetoric to match the reality?" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Jean King Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Correct but at 84 hes not self isolating he's supposed to be shielding.Walking to the shop every day is absolutely not in contradiction of the guidelines for self isolation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Notice no mention of the exercise once a day banter in the legislation either. Cheers for looking that up 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dundee Hibernian Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 I'm maybe missing something, or it's been brought up here already, but Matt Hancock declared himself with symptoms 6 days ago, having been tested positive, yet there he is out in public. What happened to self isolation? Don't the Tories have to follow the same advice as the rest of us? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing he was experiencing symptoms before this and its now 7 days (or more) since he was first symptomatic. Of course that conveniently ignores the fact that the WHO advice is that you're symptomatic for 14 days and the uk are one of the few (only?) who say 7 days and not 14 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we get a three week extension to the ‘lockdown’ ask that question again. By then the possibility of a question like that resulting in a full meltdown should be pretty high. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
