Popular Post snoop1130 Posted June 2, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 2, 2020 British government faces mockery over coronavirus 'sex ban' Image: Google LONDON (Reuters) - British Prime Minister Boris Johnson's government faced widespread mockery on Tuesday over coronavirus rules which were cast by some media as a "sex ban", though a junior minister said the regulations were aimed at keeping people safe. Under amendments introduced to English rules on Monday, no person may participate in a gathering which takes place in a public or private place indoors and consists of two or more persons. Britain's tabloid media cast it as a "bonking ban". "What this is about is making sure we don't have people staying away from home at night," British junior housing minister Simon Clarke told LBC radio when questioned about the ban. When asked if the rules allowed couples to copulate outdoors, Clarke chuckled and said: "It is fair to say the transmission risk of coronavirus is much lower in the open air than in internal space, but obviously we do not encourage people to do anything like that outside at this time or any other." On Twitter, #sexban was trending in the United Kingdom. Some pointed to Johnson's own unorthodox personal life while others pointed to the breach of lockdown rules by the prime minister's senior adviser Dominic Cummings. Conservative lawmaker Tobias Ellwood told ITV that the policy appeared to be absurd. "I am happy to say it is ridiculous," he said. Some questioned how it would be enforced. "Is there a special 'sex force' to make sure everyone complies with this #sexban?" Jen Wood said on Twitter. "Will they be knocking on windows and sending out drones or something?" -- © Copyright Reuters 2020-06-02 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow Thaivisa on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Kerryd Posted June 3, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 3, 2020 Hey - you voted them in ! "no person may participate in a gathering which takes place in a public or private place indoors and consists of two or more persons." No "sex snitch" hotline number to call if you suspect that a "gathering of 2 or more persons" may be taking place in your neighbour's bedroom ? So no more than one person at a time inside of any shop or tube station or elevator or office ? Cops can't put 2 suspects in the same jail cell ? Are trains, planes and automobiles considered "public or private" places ? I guess pubs will have to shut down as well as they won't be allowed to have any customers ! 1 bartender and 1 customer would be a "gathering of 2 or more persons in a public place indoors" after all ! Not too late to flay back to "Jolly Olde England" and enjoy the solitude ! (So long as you are the only person on the place that is.) 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post stephenterry Posted June 3, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 3, 2020 What a woeful government, headed by an even more incompetent PM than Theresa May, that the population voted in. Reap what you sow, peeps, and get used to them botching everything from covid 19 control to looming economic disaster and brexit negotiations. God help all of us Brits...that is, the ones stuck in the UK with a no sex lockdown. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rwill Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 It just shows how silly all of this stuff is. I can be intimate with my wife but go to places like the post office or bank and have to stay away from her. Or some restaurants have to sit diagonally from each other.

brommers Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 Reminds me of the good old days in South Africa when the police would burst into a house where they suspected an illicit cross-racial liaison was taking place, go to the bedroom and take the temperature of the mattress on both sides. If both sides were warm you were in trouble! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(So long as you are the only person on the place that is.) Sigh, I didn't really mean "flay". Too much typing then going back to edit and/or revise something then retype it again and finally just click "submit" without a final proof reading. Although I imagine some politicians in the UK must feel like they are being (figuratively) flayed alive lately. On the other hand, it's been ages since I head "Brexit" in the news............. Or anything about some idiots burning down cell towers because they think the 5G network is spreading the virus. I don't think Thailand will be able to claim itself as the "Hub of Kooks" anytime soon with the way things are going in the UK ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
