The head of the Equality and Human Rights Commission has apologised after she was kicked out of her second home in Wales by police on Christmas Day.
Rebecca Hilsenrath broke lockdown rules by driving from Hertfordshire to Llanegryn, Gwynedd for the festive break.
Officers spoke to the lawyer twice after an outcry by locals who found out she was in the village.

no mention of fines etc
so lets have a look at treatment of the common folk ...
yesterday police in Maidenhead in Berkshire stopped drivers outside Tesco and handed them leaflets asking: 'Why are you here?' in a clampdown on non-essential travel - despite shopping for food being allowed.
Ms Patel says that police should stop people who are outside to ask them why they are not at home and 'explain to them they should not necessarily be out unless it was for key reasons', adding that it is 'right' that the police confront people sitting on park benches. In the past two weeks more than 800 fines were issued for 'egregious' breaches of the coronavirus rules, she said.
She told BBC Radio 4's Today programme: 'The police have done that [approached people on benches], let's be very clear about this. Throughout this coronavirus pandemic, during the last lockdown, the police have been asking individuals why are they out and about, and should they be out and about, when the message right now is stay at home'.

There's definitely a difference between policing of those somehow at the top and the rest of us. The government permitted overseas travellers to come here without quarantine, if they were senior, just a few weeks ago.
I'm surprised the Welsh police haven't given her a charge, as they were in lockdown. |

"Ah, the daily mail inciting the masses as usual, carry on."
Also in The Times today.
When this thing happens a lot of people get annoyed or angry, others think why should I bother it they're not. |

That we are all equal?"
We are all in it together as far as the virus goes and if you think otherwise well you need help.
As for all being equal totally different subject and nothing to do with virus |

No change there then.

Context.
1.
Travel WAS allowed on xmas day.
2.
Wales had barred travel from anyone in English tier 3 or 4 areas. She came from tier 2 so was not breaking any rules.
Another non-story from the Daily Fail methinks |
