Will you continue using a face mask after 19 July?

[elbows]

Yep. Of course he’ll be pleased. No downside for him at all.

Until he finds out that TfL are going to hand out masks with JohnsonVariant written on them.

 

[bimble]

i'd like to see a big survey that asks people do you intend to bin yr mask on monday & did you vote conservative at the last election. I reckon a fairly good match but then maybe not, with older people seemingly more cautious.

 

[Mr Retro]

Playing politics? What the hell do you think Johnson has been doing. You thick cunt, yeah add me to your ignore list.

[mentalchik]

I mean who doesn’t know by now.

you'd be suprised....

 

[bimble]

Bonkers situation, all the big shops are apparently sitting in meetings about what to do from Monday.
Sainbury's is eager to corner the market for the Mr Retros it seems.

Supermarket mask rules will change from July 19 including at Tesco and Asda

The government’s requirement to wear a mask in shops will lift on July 19

you will on public transport and you will if you come into my library

What you gonna do if they refuse? Phone the police?

Seeing as it’s no longer law to wear masks you’d probably look a wally.

Edit: nobody is wearing masks in shops, public transport already and haven’t been for some time.... including the staff

 

[8ball]

People were wearing masks in shops when I was out a few minutes ago.

When faced with a mob, mask wearing becomes even more crucial.

You are misusing the word nobody.

 

[cyril_smear]

You are misusing the word nobody.

Correct, I am. Many people I.e the majority.

 

[Orang Utan]

Are you allowed to enforce it?

we’ve been doing so for nearly a year

 

[Pickman's model]

Correct, I am. Many people I.e the majority.

now you're confusing many with majority.

i get the feeling you've not really got to grips with this thing called language

we don’t let them in, that’s all
there are plenty of people wearing masks wherever i’ve been about

this isn't even slightly true.

 

[StoneRoad]

Not round here [SW Northumberland]

A large majority are still wearing masks in shops and on public transport.

 

[bimble]

Seeing as it’s no longer law to wear masks you’d probably look a wally.

i think this is going to be the key thing - how worried you are about 'looking like a wally' will mostly decide what you do next.
Men & young people most susceptible to this as an overriding concern, i think, in general.

But the compulsion ends on Monday

But the compulsion ends on Monday

If you were no longer compelled to wear a seat belt in a car, would you still wear one?

 

[cyril_smear]

now you're confusing many with majority.

I get the feel g your a bit deluded/live in the suburbs/live in a fantasy world

 

[cyril_smear]

If you were no longer compelled to wear a seat belt in a car, would you still wear one?

Definitely

 

[cyril_smear]

this isn't even slightly true.

Depends where you live I suppose

 

[Pickman's model]

I get the feel g your a bit deluded/live in the suburbs/live in a fantasy world

i've always been very clear that i live in hackney. hackney is not a suburb.

and as for my being deluded, i suppose i am in expecting anything other than utter bollocks from you. and it's only utter bollocks on a good day, you mostly struggle to achieve even that. if i lived in a fantasy world you wouldn't be here.

 

[Orang Utan]

But the compulsion ends on Monday

yes, but we may still insist on people wearing them all the same

 

[Orang Utan]

Depends where you live I suppose

i just went shopping on Harehills Lane and the majority are wearing masks in the shops, many of them outside too

 

[Elpenor]

Definitely

Ok, we’ve established you’re bothered about protecting yourself.

How about if there was no rule against drink driving? would you five and drive?

five? on a light morning, he'd be 8+1 most of the time

To be fair he said he would wear a seatbelt.

 

[Elpenor]

To be fair he said he would wear a seatbelt.

Looks like I misread his response then. Must be my age

 

[Dystopiary]

We've all done it.

 

[existentialist]

To be fair he said he would wear a seatbelt.

Just to note the fundamental difference between seatbelts and masks: the former are primarily there to protect the wearer; the latter are for protecting others.

So perhaps it's no wonder, given his attitude, that he's happy to wear a seatbelt, but not so happy to wear a mask.
