Honestly, although there are the usual facebook nutters, the mood is very subdued amongst most people I know, and the rules are largely being stuck to.
I'm a "key worker" in IT. I work remotely from my office in that I'm a field engineer and the traffic is still horrendous. The first lockdown was the only time I felt this gooseberry fool was ever being taken seriously and I felt safe. All installs got cancelled first lockdown, only non trading situations to be dealt with. Now it's business as usual. No offence but you're deluded. I went into Sainsburys today at 4pm. 4pm on a Wednesday and it was strawberry floating heaving with people that are not distancing.
In the first lockdown I know 4 people including my wife that tested positive, this time round I know 20 plus, and I know my first person that died from it. I blame Boris for being so wishy washy about doing something in the first place, but I also blame the public for not actually listening when he did. Basically we're a country of banana splits.
