Covid lockdown rule breach

By *ob Carpe Diem OP Man over a year ago

Torquay

Just reported one, a couple of guys turned up at the flat above me, I think it's owned by an elderly lady from Swindon who uses it as a holiday home. I've no idea why they are here but maybe she's passed away and one is her son, am I being unreasonable, I doubt the police will bother with it

In that case, it's reasonable for them to be there, so why report?

We phoned the police on people about five weeks ago. Huge social gathering outside someone’s house, no social distancing, and then they got an off road bike (with no license plates either) and started zooming up and down the street, not giving a shit about anyone they could hit.

My neighbours parents have flown over from Germany for a holiday next door. And Dominic Cummings gets a hard time for going up the road! No I haven't reported it, live and let live. It's not like they are doing any harm and if they are it's to their own. My son has been here to visit a couple of times and I've gave him a cuddle. Sometimes you just need to take the chance.

You can't call the police for non emergency issues here so I just messaged online, I'm not in the business of asking why they are potentially breaking lockdown rules if they don't let me or the neighbors know then they should anticipate being reported

I really don't see why you would bother with reporting.

If you wanted to be consistent then you should be taking pictures of people not properly social distancing too and handing it to the police.

As you've reported it the police will deal with it if they feel it necessary.

As long as you feel you've done the right thing

To be honest I refer people to report via the correct channels than take to social media in virtue signalling outrage.

I wouldn’t be surprised if your neighbours were keeping a diary on all the times you appear to be spying on them, just in case they need to inform the police.

Indeed. It would be different if there was someone in there who clearly hadn't been isolating, but somewhere that's been empty for 9 weeks isn't much of a risk unless they start coughing through peoples letterboxes.

Yeah you are right, we we should just ignore it, I'll contact the police and apologise for wasting people's time stupid me, so what if there's a second spike and lots of people die and the economy crashes and loads of people become unemployed at least I decided to live and let live and I'll be fine anyway.

I probably wouldn't report them for being there a night. As they've no luggage maybe there is an issue with the property that needs dealing with? Maybe they are giving it the once over for when it can be rented out?

If I thought they were staying there for the weekend or longer then I probably would report them as I would think local police/council would rightly be cracking down on unauthorised holiday lets

Both flats have been empty since I moved in 9 weeks ago, there are only 10 in the block two have been empty since I moved here, they have gone in the one next door not the one owned by the old lady in Swindon it seems.

It's not that you reported them that's the issue, of course everyone should be responsible and aware. It's not knowing anything other than the flat has been empty since you moved in. You have no idea who actually lives there, so for all you know you could have reported people for going home.

It's that you reported without knowing the real situation.

If I did what's the harm in it, so two middle aged guys with an expensive Audi have been unable to get home since late March? If that's true they have nothing to worry about.

Absolutely not a lynching, I just worry for repercussions of reporting people to the police when you don't really know. The police are overstretched as it is, I just think unless you can see real danger, just be sure is all, or it might bite you in the arse.

You are right we should all mind our own business and not bother being socially responsible regardless of the outcome, as mentioned I apologise for posting I shouldn't care who is breaking lockdown rules or why, we should all ignore them.

By the way it is the flat upstairs owned by the elderly lady from Swindon so perhaps she did pass away, and one of the guys has just taken luggage from the car. You don't have to be a curtain twitcher in this place to see who's coming and going either.

No I would know I like to think, if not me then the family of four who live in the flat next door or Mike who lives on the ground floor, it's only ten flats in two groups of five I think someone would have noticed, anyway she wasn't there and I fear she may have passed away.

Best guess is it's her son's who have come to inspect the place which I don't think I can complain about but strictly speaking they shouldn't stay the night

Thanks for that, I was ( still am) in a dilemma about was it right, if it's their mum who has passed away then I feel only sympathy for them but other people have been in the same position and not visited so I think the police can decide. As I said I doubt they will do anything anyway

Meanwhile another Conservative MP was found to have gone to a mixed group gathering of multiple households, a barbecue, when people weren't allowed to assemble. They have an entitlement that the rest of us don't.

I'd call the police for emergencies but be cautious otherwise

"Did you try and find out who they were and why they were at the flat or did you immediately call the police?

Wow, that's awful noisy of you. It's none of your business why they are there & the UK has been open to internation flights the whole time this has been going on, regular flights from Ireland/northern Ireland to the main land every day with workers traveling, not that I agree with flying to work at all, work where you live or vise versa.

A guy flew in from new Zealand to go to Skye, why to get peace from his family.

Plus you are actually allowed to go stay at another place if it is getting too much at home, you need to stay there for at least 14 days though.

Domestic violence victims can also leave home & go stay somewhere else.

Perhaps your time would be better spent actually going out of you flat and volunteering to help vulnerable people in your community in your spare time as you seem to have way too much of this spent spying on your neighbours OP. They could have been going there for a break for mental health reasons, domestic violence or to get the flat ready for sale. All of which are allowed.

Maybe he’s bored and looking out of HIS window gives him a little bit of joy at an otherwise shit time.

If he’s putting 4 and 4 together and coming up with 6 then so what. I hardly think the Police would rush to check on these people anyway, but they are more than capable of taking into account all the info given to them and deciding whether to attend or not.

I can’t believe the OP is being given such a hard time over this.

"If they are here because the old lady has died then I'm very sorry for them but they still shouldn't be staying overnight and that's the way it seems right now"
so would two people who may live together going and staying in a residence that has been empty for 9 weeks anyway actually spread any form of infection to anyone??? No but anyway lockdown is a joke with no proven science to back it up. All me have done is slow down the rate of infection and I’m doing so prolonged this state of fear and mistrust while also ruining the economy and people’s lives. Flu does not go away we would need to have lockdown ( which would mean nothing no one on streets, no hospitals, no services of any kind no leaving the house ) for at least 12 months with absolutely no foreign travel after that for years to get rid of the virus. All we have done is prolong this we could have carried on as normal as we do with every flu season and got this all out the way in two to three months instead we have opted to make it last at least 3 years. If you are going to catch it you are going to catch it if you are going to die from it same as if you was going to die from phumoniea or flu anyway you are going to die from it. We have chosen to ruin the economy and people’s lively hoods for years to come, will increase unemployment by a figure that we have never seen outside of war times, ruined children’s education and impacted their mental well being in a way that I never thought a goverment ever would.

well that’s just a silly thing to say really isn’t It as ( I’m not one of them ) People who agree with lockdown and are extremely worried about the spread of a virus are seriously concerned about large gatherings where the spread of a virus is a lot more likely so they do not like it and become even more concerned and scared when the see thousands of people gathering and breaking the rules and laws of lockdown that are put in place to save lives. Technically they see it that these people have gathered together as they do not have a 2nd thought for anyone’s else’s lives. It does not matter what people or gathering or marching for. I would myself hope that not one of those people that have been at a gathering or march of any kind are the type of people to moan and complain at the government to say they have not done enough or they type of person who shares things that say stay in save lives or say they won’t send their kids to school as that would make them very very hipocritcal. ( I you maybe able to guess by now am 100% against lockdown and sit firmly in the heard immunity line of thought ) however I really do hate hipocrits. If you have been on a march, shopped for non essential, met family and friends and yet say you should continue lockdown then you are hippcrits ( sorry no idea how to spell and spell check was not helping )

Take it your not practicing social distancing then, with hopes of catching the virus and spreading it to friends and family for their greater good?

Perhaps we should stop wasting money on vaccine research and instead role out mandatory infection to everyone, with those who become severely ill been left to die out. After all the most vulnerable mostly tend to be the people that the state has to invest alot of funds in to caring for. Follow Darwins theory and let nature run its course. "Survival of the fittest! " We're sure that this is what is happening in some form anyway with the deaths in care homes, as these poor people are been left in there to die and not taken in to hospital for treatment. As well as the ongoing suspicion that the virus still originated in a lab. This would be quite an effective biological weapon to wipe out certain groups in times of conflict or famine.

Just remember that at some point you'll no longer be the fittest if already not, so could end up enduring this long horrible death yourself.

The op did nothing wrong and felt that this needed addressing, but sadly the police have no powers to enter properties to check and enforce the rules.

I am also furloughed so not even traveling for work so again I am following the rules rules that I do not agree with or believe actually help other than by making this last longer.

We have imposed rules on everyone to protect a very few when very few of those that we are suppousedly protecting wish to be protected or bother to follow the rules themselves. Honestly ask your self where is the sense.

If a child in a school gets chicken pox do we close all schools in that area?? A disease that is can still be fatel to a unborn child? Deaths from

Cancer in the past 4 months have risen by somthing like 25% deaths from phumoniea have dropped as they are being listed as covid related???? Do I believe 40k deaths due to flu In what is technicaly a 4 month period is a lot no I do not. Compare that to the normal

First of all this isn't the flu, ask any doctor who is treating it. Ask the doctors in Italy who appeared on TV to tell people that those saying it is just the flu need to stop saying that and wakeup.

There is a flu vaccine for some types. My parents and some vulnerable friends as well as our young daughter receive a letter each year inviting them to the doctors for their annual flu vaccination. Or is that just a ruse to give them something else instead?

You just come across as very confident in herd immunity so anyone would think that you're standing up and practicing what you so strongly believe, instead of doing something you don't.

Also very sure if everyone in the world was infected with covid. (The only real way for herd immunity to have a chance of working and for us to have a fighting chance to evolve against it.) And nature left to run it's course the death rate would be much higher than you predict. Yes humanity would servive, but is it humane to follow this route?

"I think it’s vile to report others, mind ur own business

this

Not quite in the same class of reporting really is it?

Exactly. how the OP can compare reporting two adults going into a flat with fish & chips to reporting child or animal cruelty is beyond me.

Oh I'm sorry I didn't see the distinction in the post " I think it’s vile to report others, mind ur own business"

Reporting some things that you think are wrong is vile but other things are not? I am on a learning curve here

Honestly , how did he know it was fish and chips?

Did he smell it out the window or was it wrapped in newspaper?

I’m curious Because on my last visit to the London, I wanted authentic fish and chips wrapped in newspaper.....

And I could not find any at all....

"I dont get why people need to report, is your life that empty your watching what everyone e else is doing

No but it's been empty for 9 weeks since I moved in, what if it's a government advisor breaking the rules again

Oh my god this is so funny. Sorry but I’m really glad that I don’t have you as a neighbour.

Ditto

Same!

There's some things that are far more important than two adults going into an empty flat, ie child abuse, animal cruelty, domestic violence etc. Surely those things are for more important for the police to deal with. I've just read on another thread that a post woman was shot in the face with an air rifle in Keighley, would you rather the police dealt with the perpetrator of that crime or wasted time knocking on the flat door in your complex?

Just stop reading the replies or replying. You haven't killed anyone, no matter how some people are reacting!

You asked a simple question but the hatred is staggering.

Hope you are doing ok. Don't let it affect you. These are shitty times. If the police think there is an issue they will investigate. Xx

OP. Looking at your post even at this late stage, you seem too quick to wish to report rather than check first on the what & why of this...

Could it be the original occupant has been ill, and has asked two relatives to check the premises to ensure it's safe and ok?

Maybe, the property has been sold?

Maybe, the property is being let out for a short-term period?

There could be a range of reasons, anyone of which could be perfectly ok, but querying whether to report it to the Police or not, come on, be sensible.

If I was you and felt it necessary to check, I'd have a quiet direct check with the people and leave it at that.

I'm just glad you aren't my neighbour!

It was in a bag with a local chippies logo on it, they turned up late so obviously went for a takeaway, and to whoever posted above no they haven't moved in they are visiting.

Having gauged the opinion on here I realise that reporting something you believe might be wrong during this lockdown is not the right thing to do, if you see something that looks like it's wrong and report it you are being vile.

Now I understand better I will cease to pay any attention to whatever others are doing regarding lockdown going forward, it is none of our business right?

Not aimed at you personally but a question in general.

What deems as reportable?

This is why petty crime goes unpunished and continues to happen .When it comes to crime it should be a yes/no answer with no grey areas. Just varying degrees of punishment depending on the severity of the crime. If somebody broke in to your home and only caused damage to locks and windows but not steal anything would you report it when no harm really done?

People are always littering from car windows, should they be reported and punished? What if somebody dumped an old fridge or sofa in your garden and you had evidence of who'd done it would you report this?

If somebody was dealing drugs in your local park would you report it? What if they were using your garden?

Through no fault of anyone's but more society as a whole we tend to look the other way unless it impacts us personally. As well as the criminal justice system been a shambolic circus enstalling no faith in people.

Admit it.. you reported them mainly because you wanted their chips as you couldn't be bothered to walk to your chippy to get some earlier.

I’m curious. As you seem to be aware of what your neighbours do and what flats are empty, did you ask any of your neighbours whether they knew who the “visitors” were?

And the vile individual who reported Dominic Cummings when the poor man was only driving to a local castle on his wife's birthday in order to test his eyesight, maybe he's even more vile than me, at least I recognise that I was completely wrong now, I he has had a chance to reflect

That surprises me considering you seem to know a lot about your neighbours in the 9 weeks you’ve been living there.

I don't watch them closely, a couple of guys I've never seen before turning up to a flat that's been vacant for over two months maybe neighbours in your eyes but not mine

You've posted this because you've got a jobsworth mentality and think you have the moral highground, well the majority of replies your post has received have berated your actions. Bet you don't feel so clever now do you, snitch.

You are completely right and now I realise that being a snitch is very wrong, I know people who have reported on FAB when people where asking them to meet, they are snitches as well and will take your advice and let them know they are entirely wrong to do so

Yes you are quite correct, people who report things they believe are wrong deserve to get stitches, I understand that now, violence is the only way to make them realise that reporting things they think are wrong is worse than what they are reporting
