Hey Mark! Long time no see.

Good to know you are still keeping up the fight over in the UK. My folks are here at the moment and assuring me the UK would never take such harsh measures as France, but let's see hey. I'm not so sure. They didn't seem to mind taking the same harsh measures as France during the vaccine roll-out.

Talking to the people here it does seem as if at least 50% of them don't care about these supposed laws and are going about their business as usual. Sprinklers still going in many fields all day long, while food is still being harvested and sold at the markets. But for how long I wonder will the group of people who let their plants die accept this? In other villages many are getting fined because of anonymous phone calls (their neighbours). Police no longer required.

It is important in this moment to understand our power when it comes to fines. There is a procedure (involving a letter with lots of pertinent questions for them) which will prevent one from having to pay them. Guidelines disguised as laws can be easily declined basically. It's just that not too many people know this.
