It was completely different with Homes and Hospitals because staff and other Residents/Patients had to be protected and sadly those who passed away in those institutions were unable to have loved ones there.
Thousands of people broke the rules during Covid...thousands. Look at the demonstrations up in London. What they did was no worse than Boris with his little gatherings...he amongst many.
We seriously need to get this into perspective...

Rusti ,
Boris and his merry crew were the ones who MADE the RULES , therefore it was his responsibility to KEEP them and ABIDE by them. If he can't even follow his own rules & restrictions then what is the point. The bloke was already a deceitful lying joke ,but more so now .

And I'm fed up of the excuse of " oh well people were breaking rules anyway" , that's not the point . They're not the ones running this country. And just think of all the loved ones people have lost in lockdown who they couldn't see ,there was funerals people couldn't attend.

Some of us were still following these so called rules. And no not everyone visited their loved ones as they were told not to . Sure they zoomed called & rang them but it wouldn't have been the same. People were worried they'd spread the virus when we were in heavy lockdown, plus there was the threat of people getting 'fined' aswell.

People were going through depression , dying etc and Boris & his mates are having p1ss take cheese & wine parties ,and he was laughing in all of our faces . I don't know how anyone can still go easy on him or even begin to defend him. It's truly baffling.
