And on the subject of stupidity and trump. WTF's going on in USA: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/elec...-2020-55558355

Craziness.

I absolutely agree about obeying the guidance and it sounds as though these 2 individuals would have responded appropriatly to being spoken to and advised. As for dishing out a fine for something that is not against the law I'm not sure that sends the correct message when we need people to support the police and not challenge them.

The *law* says that people must stay home. They are only permitted to leave home with a "reasonable excuse”. There are examples of how that is defined. But the law also says that you should remain in your local area. And that is not well defined. Probably because that's dependent on where you live. Local in Leeds is different to local in the High Peak. So there's a degree of interpretation involved. But there's still recourse to the concept of reasonableness.
