Derbyshire police have put black dye into a popular photo spot.
The days get stranger by the minute.

Well seeing as we have tested 120K people and 19K have come out positive....it would seem a 6th of us have it here...or 10m people.

But they're only testing people who show symptoms, aren't they? So 1/6th of the people who show symptoms have it, you can't just apply that fraction to an entire population.

Wish we'd get behind global warming / plastic removal / deforestation / over-consumption / overpopulation the same way :(

No point in engaging Job on stats. He's not had the training, and even if he had had the training then would you really believe he's competent?

Its the only stats we have and in reality, judging from the Iceland stats, half of us probably have it.

Well my dad lives alone in Devon and if hes taken I'll drive down and look after him in isolation.
If they stop me on the way I'll politely point they have no powers whatsoever to stop me.

It sounds like you just want to get caught so you can be an argumentative twat to the police, which is the last thing they need. If you need to go to Devon for urgent family reasons, that's fine, it's always been fine. If you just want to go for a jolly and use the above as an excuse if you get stopped though, that makes you a selfish prick.

Apart from the ones they got on Thursday, right?

Anyway, plod'd be happy for you to help your dad. They'd be less enamoured with your lack of insurance though I imagine.

Any danger of a climbdown on your statement that the police don't have the power to stop you in the face of evidence that they do?

Atm ..no....no powers have been given to them outside of breach of the peace.

To ensure people stay at home and avoid non-essential travel, from today, if members of the public do not comply the police may:

instruct them to go home, leave an area or disperse


Which is an absolute credit to our legal system and the police.
Softly first..
