How can you,the government don't even know what they are saying or doing.You can go see both your parents with SD in place,oh no wait only one parent at a time.Utterly clueless,if you are allowed to go fishing then surely staying at the lake for 24/48hrs is safer than people constantly travelling back and forth to the lakes

.Its just getting ridiculous imo.They give out too many mixed messages,the countries that have relaxed lockdown are having a big rise in new cases even Germany.What chance have we got with a fluffy haired telly tubby bumbling his way through it all

flippin hell some people are just never satisfied!
i want to go fishing - ok you can
i want to stay all night!
get out there and enjoy it and if it's in a reduced form for now that's ok - there are still more important things to worry about of course but a few hours on the bank is better than none
stay safe - and alert
edit - braders... very true and very tragically funny

If both of your parents are at home you can go and see them and just stand at the end of the garden or whatever. It's when you are out in public, like meeting in parks or going for a walk/run that they are saying only one person from each household
I don't get what's so hard to understand 😂😂 if you're are going to your parents house to see if they are ok or whatever the government aren't saying only one parent can answer the door and speak to you while the other one has to stay in the front room watching telly
Again it all comes down to common sense!! Going to see your parents at their house and keeping the SD is fine. Getting your parents, aunts, uncles, brothers, sisters, cousins etc to meet in the park for a picnic isn't fine
Some people just have to try and find holes in everything 🙄

And this has all come about because of anglers complaining rather than using common sense.
the document said: unlimited exercise, unlimited distance and specifically mentioned angling.
It does not say anything about returning home, it does not say camping is banned.
Fundamentally THE most important thing at the moment, regardless of what you are doing is making sure that activity in a way that minimises the risk of transferring the virus.
Go fishing, make sure you maintain good hygiene, wash/disinfect hands regularly, clean any key points (locks/gates etc) and maintain social distancing.
Some places wont open for nights, some will. Thats the owners prerogative and probably based on what they feel comfortable with or feel is appropriate which is totally their call.
Throughout this the government has said what (according to advice) can be done. They have said we can go fishing.
Do you really think that they have a minister looking at overnight fishing? Of course not, and especially in the current situation.
However so many anglers have banged on about camping not being allowed (which is generally viewed as group activity) overnight fishing is possibly being banded into that category (in my view, wrongly).
If you want to go fishing and feel you can do so safely, then crack on (from Wednesday obviously). if you dont feel you can, then dont.
I wish people would use more common sense, focus on doing activities in a safe way to minimise risks, rather than having to be told exactly what they can do.

So now things are not allowed to be changed 😂😂
Some people just need to be babysat through life because they can't think for themselves

I do think the Government (more to the point Boris) should of made it clear to those that are shall we say...hard of thinking.
That we as a society all need to take a balanced approach in managing the risks this virus presents to us.
The risk is always there while the virus is prevalent but we all need to take responsibility to minimise the danger to ourselves and others.
If people cannot understand that then frankly there's no helping them.

Hit the nail on the head. It will only be anglers that ruin the fishing
Surprised no ones moaning that Boris never said how many wraps we are allowed to fish at 😂
We've been told we can go fishing if we want, but for some that doesn't seem to be enough and want to know the in's and out's of a cows arse in every possible detail because they can't work it out for themselves

I don't need to be babysat by anyone,how can we know what we should and should not be doing when the idiots in charge don't know their own guidelines.I have stuck to staying in,only going for a walk with my family who live under my roof and shopping twice a week and for my elderly neighbours too.Now it's turning into a free for all and when the deaths rates suddenly sky rocket,who is to blame? You can't say sticking to SD works because one minute it's 6ft apart then it's 10ft oh no wait 6fts OK,wear a mask don't wear a mask.The government may aswell just say get on with it and take your chances,3 options are no symptoms,get ill or die crack on but be alert

well put
as always it will be the selfish and the stupid that f*ck it up for the majority of sensible and considerate. C-19 can't tell whether you're a kn*bhead or not - as we are told by the self serving smug muppets 'it doesn't discriminate' . but we don't all have a self contained flat above our workplace in Downing Street to retreat to do we?
sadly we can expect a rise in the numbers of infections and deaths just like other countries where lockdowns have been relaxed.

It's out of the governments hands, they haven't the foggiest what to do hence all the mumbling obfuscation, it's just their idea of damage limitation to avoid being blamed.
Lockdown for us but keep airports open, keep up the free water taxi service in the channel, limit the number of tube trains thus ensuring overcrowding, use a supermarket aisle that's less than 2 meters wide, no mandatory PPE, no deterrent for piss takers,conflicting advice etc.
The public will be blamed of course, but only a slap on the wrist for the medical expert who defied his own advice by hobnobbing with some married bit on the side and also completely screwed up his previous doomsday predictions regarding swine and avian flu by a massive margin. Is his advice still relevant now?
There are idiots about who think the official stance doesn't apply to them but if it isn't enforced then what's the bloody point? Are we at risk or not, it's a simple enough question that the country needs a solid answer to.
