THOUSANDS of pounds in fines have been imposed on seven people caught flouting strict lockdown measures.

Here's what you had to say...

Paul Ryan said: “Reminds people that this tinpot police state and much worse is their future. They should have appealed the “charges” as ultra vires--beyond the states lawful authority.

“No surprise that the Uni trained Marxists who produce these laws are happy about it.”

Simon Dunes said: “They should have got one of the legal experts who come on here claiming you can’t be done for disobeying any of the Covid rules to represent them in court.”

Walter Simmons said: “This is how Marshall law works. You usually see it in Africa or South America. Being fined for leaving your home. These people aren’t criminals. They’re at worst selfish.

“Boris, you’ve lost my respect. I never voted for this.”

Barry Leonard said: “Wow, it’s all a bit late isn’t it. Was in ‘The Range’ yesterday and the blatant disregard by staff and customers of just doing the ‘ right thing’ whatever your opinion is was shocking. Not going there again in the foreseeable future.”

Henry Harman said: “I can fully understand how people fell for this scam at the start, I did myself.

“How they are still falling for it is beyond my comprehension.

“How can they not see that nothing that SAGE has predicted has actually happened anywhere near. Even just a few weeks ago, Whitty predicted we would be four times higher by now than we actually are.”
