Yet police in south west are enforcing a none existent law ,by not allowing travel to dog walk or exercise.
A criminal prosecution QC on Twitter, said they will get thrown out of court, that he has no case he can bring on the polices behalf. Rightly so.

Why is CPS not banning such cases?

Is it too much to hope the police involved will be prosecuted for wasting police time?

As an infringement of civil liberty, this should be appealed to the top.
If the government wants to ban drive to exercise, or put limits on it, it could easily amend the law.
Isn't there a danger that this will encourage sections of society to push things as far as they can and try to find / exploit loopholes in the law. I think people on here broadly agree on what is sensible and lawful but there is alway those that know better.
