Coronavirus - Dig In, It's going to be a while yet

Are you feeling ok? Now necessary steps to stop the spread of virus is ā€˜giving up every right we haveā€™

:grin:

Fermoy.

And what if next time weā€™ve elected a bunch of facists (not the pretend blue shirt ones) because people are by and large thick and easily manipulated into being scared of one thing or another. So they are the elected representatives, and our constitution which is supposed to act as a check on such people, is worthless

You can be imprisoned from anything from 3 to 6 months under new powers. Not a millions miles off from the status quo in the country is right now. The exercise yard might be 1.8k shorter is all and your food is paid for. Meanwhile they will have temporary release for those with more serious crimes because of covid 19. You couldnā€™t make it up.

But but but but

Thatā€™s how itā€™s always been!!!

If they elect a bunch of fascists, this would happen anyway. And would probably be the least of your worries

I wouldnā€™t give up my right to life.

Over that you are prioritising a right to travel which ive spelled out can already be restricted in this country, with no issue. So is not an absolute constitutional right despite you really wishing it was for some reason.

They let lads with 80 previous out and now they are going to lock up Breda off Facebook for going to get a few fags from the shop. Poor woman has been through enough.

Checks and balances are there for a reason. Itā€™s important not to remove them.
I agree with the thrust of what they are trying to do, just not the method.

Whatā€™s the alternative? People arenā€™t adhering to the measures.

There wont be any lads with 80 previous anymore - thatā€™s positive in fairness.

It cannot

Passed a good few parks and squares & the Canal this evening out for a run but didnā€™t see that down my parts but could easily have missed it.

Certainly a good few more people lounging around and kicking a football. The guards were policing this last week but I didnā€™t see them tonight. Itā€™s mostly harmless so long as itā€™s family groups but the signal to others is the issue.

So how can courts take passports off people as bail conditions?
