The police could bring the charges rather than Whitty couldn't they?
The police could bring the charges rather than Whitty couldn't they?I mean, I wouldn’t press charges. But I’m not a 55 yo man and I’ve got no idea what his previous experience with violence is or how traumatic it was.
If you’re the kind of person that can’t handle his beer and is likely to go around laying hands on strangers you should probably either stop drinking or accept the consequences really. Ive managed 40 years and many beers without being charged with assault

Its more to do with the chance of getting a conviction if the person who was attacked doesn't want to get involved and may not give a statement or appear as a witness should it get that far.Yeah clearly I have no idea how the criminal justice system works. I thought it was the person. Seems I’m wrong. Luckily I’ve never had to find out IRL.

The main stupidity is letting himself be filmed doing it! Otherwise he'd have blended into the night. It's one of those where because of the profile, they're boxed into a corner where there's little choice but pressing charges really.I thought it was down to the person? Do CPS decide? Maybe I’ve been watching too many American shows.
Great postI said I’d stop prattling but the way we ignore the law and expert advice in this country is beyond my understanding. Don’t get me wrong, like St Paul I am the worst sinner and hypocrite of them all but when I hear people say it’s ok to drive 45 down London road or not have insurance because the car isn’t worth much I’m flabbergasted
When Chris Whitty and Vallance explain how virus’s mutate and the dangers to public health and we ignore it and it’s fine cos I’ve not had Covid
I am maybe to in bed with authority and I do enjoy others different thought patterns and challenge but unless we start paying attention to those that know more than us we really are heading to hell in a handcart
And Pva you’re bang on I told you it was common assault, anyone can see that the legal definition of what this is was met in the video but still we’ll have friends on here say it wasn’t too bad or I’ve done worse or it’s the nanny state etc etc etc.
It’s not big or clever to put the fear of god into someone just for a laugh and if others think it is then like shmmee says expect some consequences.
Making up scenarios in your head? Even the more cautious were saying listen to the experts weren't they?We still got people cowering behind the sofa even with Whitty and Vallance saying were ok?

Irrelevant though isn't it cases?
The whole point was to stop hospitalisations and the NHS being overrun and of course minimise deaths
The jab works, we've got the info we need, we've jabbed millions more, if we don't crack on now we never will
Not if that is what the experts are saying. I wonder what normal will look like. Johnson seems to be rolling back a bit on 'Freedom day' and dropping the odd hint that some things will be retained.And we have. And there's no reason to not crack on now is there?
Not irrelevant for other countries not as vaccinated as we are though in regards to letting us in.
Nah...Making up scenarios in your head? Even the more cautious were saying listen to the experts weren't they?
Personally I'd say it's very encouraging if the chief medical officer agrees that most retrictions can end July 19th. That's kind of, like, a positive thing...

Almost 30000 daily infections can’t imagine other countries queuing to let us in
It's all along the lines of 'some very strong wording' though, which is the worst of all worlds! It's either OK, in which case tell us, or if some things are needed, it's pointless having the 95yo who hasn't been out do it, while Piers Corbyn refuses as it's voluntary.Not if that is what the experts are saying.

Got to admit I've really had enough of masks.As for the 19th though. If they crack on and say masks aren’t compulsory I’ll be binning all mine.
Fair, but i dont see the big clamour for people going abroad. People need to book a week in fucking Ingoldmells or something and book the big abroad one next year
Clarity and leadership.It's all along the lines of 'some very strong wording' though, which is the worst of all worlds! It's either OK, in which case tell us, or if some things are needed, it's pointless having the 95yo who hasn't been out do it, while Piers Corbyn refuses as it's voluntary.
Yeah how I see it toothe delta variant is starting its course through a less vaccinated Europe so there will be a lot of stand off behaviour for a while before they get done with their 4th wave.
Fingers crossed.Best bit for me is it seems we will be allowed back in the ricoh.

But the point being, if it's a risk just to you then crack on, if your action causes risk to other people, then you abdicate your freedom of choice.we should allow freedom of choice and give advice on risks now. It’s absurd we are even discussing continuing measures
But the point being, if it's a risk just to you crack on, if your action causes risk to other people, then you abdicate your freedom of choice.
That's where it's stupid having it voluntary, as the people who *would* be a risk to others would be the people not doing it! You either legislate for it, or don't bother with it.
It's the same line as 'we're not closing pubs, but don't go in them' at the beginning of all this - absolute stupidity as it harms, well, just about everybody and ultimately helps nobody.

It isn't irrelevant internationally for countries with lower vaccine coverageIrrelevant though isn't it cases?

With caveats about how we're talking scenarios blah blah blah so I don't have some tool pop along and call me a lockdown lover...I know we are not there yet, but eventually the risk is going to be just to the unvaccinated. And as far as I’m concerned they can swivel. If it’s been refused I genuinely don’t give a fuck.
Well, them and circa 10% of the vaccinated (even double-dosed) as it's not 100% effective.I know we are not there yet, but eventually the risk is going to be just to the unvaccinated. And as far as I’m concerned they can swivel. If it’s been refused I genuinely don’t give a fuck.
