Why? You're not on furlough are you?
Why should I pay for people to sit around a lake?

No, I'm working and have been since the first lockdown ended fortunately enough - only claimed the first lot of money, unlike some unscrupulous types I've heard about.
However much you want to argue the point, angling has been recognised as exercise, and as much as you and I don't like the fact that people are able to sit around a lake or pit getting payed for it, not much you can do about it really other than moan, which achieves zero.
Yeah, it was annoying to have blokes tell me they've caught shed loads at my place because they were practically living there, sod all I could say apart from well done you....an hero.

Agreed on essentials.
I'm sorry but hairdressers and tackle shops don't come close. Costa too - just another example of circumventing law / guidance for selfish reasons. You can buy coffee from tesco and make it at home.
Too many of the British public are like some big spoiled ****ing teenager. And the pathetic government trying to pander to them for future votes need a kick up the arse. The list of what is considered to be a 'key worker' is a joke. Some schools are seeing 50 per cent of kids deemed key worker's children - way more than the real essential workers that were identified 1st lockdown.
Tackle shops essential. ... b******s
If people are so bored maybe they should sign up to the volunteer service / help out at a food bank or something useful.
Ambulances are queued up outside hospitals and people are whining about catching a sodding carp...

“Welp, the government fortunately doesn't agree with you”
Half an hour later.
“as much as you and I don't like the fact”
🤷🏻♂️
Unless it was just to be antagonistic I don't see how somebody currently working (I assume self employed) would find it fortunate that people being paid to STAY AT HOME are out having a jolly up.
I haven't moaned, I stated the fact that fishing isn't exercise. There is ample opportunity to exercise between your home and however far you travel to the lake or river, exercise.. I've heard it all

That first post related to your mention of you not thinking angling was exercise. The other post is self explanatory.
You come across as highly emotional - like a lot of the same regular posters - and very angry, and yeah, moaning too.

i wouldn't be surprised if the current lockdown laws/guidelines are increased in the next few days....there are a lot of people out and about today, albeit following the rules, but that must be a concern to the scientists who model the rate of transmission. We may be restricted to limited time outside your.house like they did to good effect in Spain

Yeah, I think Boris will fold, he has the strength and resilience of a melted KitKat, especially so if that Starmer (sp) cretin starts yabbering on and piping up, Boris copies Starmer's dictats verbatim.
