UK Unveils Harsh $13,000 Fine For Breaking Quarantine Amid Covid 2nd Wave
I wonder if other countries are going to be following this policy...

The fines could hit $20,000...

I expect Canada and USA to follow suit in the next few months...


The UK witnessed new record coronavirus case numbers reported in a single day since May on Saturday, logging over 4,420 confirmed infections.

And now authorities are getting desperate, threatening severe law enforcement measures and penalties, with the latest being that those who test positive but refuse to self-quarantine can be hit with a fine up to $13,000 (or 10,000 pounds).

It comes after Prime Minister Boris Johnson confirmed the country is undergoing an "inevitable" second wave of infections on Friday.

Is not a £10k fine. Its £1k fine upto £10k if you are caught multiple times or a serious flagrant breach.

People are getting paid by the gov to stay at home and isolate if they have the virus on top of their sick pay from their employer. Its cash lump sum of £500 so inefect the fine will cost people nothing.

The £1k is only £500 if you pay within 14 days.

The government are giving people who need to isolate a £500 lump sum.

You get caught the you use the money the government gave you and pay within 14 days.

Comprehension is not your strong point is it?

You self employed have been scamming the system for decades and deserve no help.

Under reporting income to avoid paying tax, shutting your businesses down and reopening the next day under a new name to avoid paying debts.

Most self employed are scum.

Death rates are not spiking. They've been "backlog stuffing" death numbers for months. Any total number you hear for one day has deaths counted from Sep, Aug, July, June, May, Apr, etc.

We all know if it’s one of their favored groups who breaks the quarantine they won’t do shit! If you’re a white ancestral Brit, though, they will come down on you hard.

Everybody knows just tell them you went to the mosque and nothing will happen to you. Added bonus of getting to blame white people for the higher rate of infection in the poc or Islamic community because racism and then demand money and extra special treatment.

No.

Comprehension is not your strong point. So let me explain.

By writing this into law, it provides a double-edged sword.

1. Those who are already scared will become even more browbeaten,

2. Those who dare go against the law can be fined - which of course, not many people can pay - and non-payment can result in jail term.

In other words, the stratospheric leap from a fine of one thousand up to ten thousand enables greater control over the population.

This is just the beginning. I foresee more laws simply designed to detain the citizenry. They're detaining people in Australia simply over Facebook posts, for God's sake. The UK knows that won't swim over here. So they take a more insidious route, hiding the real plan behind Dickensian rhetoric and red tape.

I've been working five months solid, 60 hours a week, since this began. I would love to catch this shitty disease that's so terrible people are dropping dead in the street, just to have 2 weeks off. But I will only get SSP, which is a fifth of my working wage, with no help from the government.

Hilarious, because this time next year, the global monetary system will have collapsed, everyone's bank accounts will have been reset, and people will be queuing up to do 12 hour shifts down at the communal farm in order to receive their daily food rations\vouchers.

The UK witnessed new record coronavirus case numbers reported in a single day since May on Saturday, logging over 4,420 confirmed infections.

And now authorities are getting desperate, threatening severe law enforcement measures and penalties, with the latest being that those who test positive but refuse to self-quarantine can be hit with a fine up to $13,000 (or 10,000 pounds).

It comes after Prime Minister Boris Johnson confirmed the country is undergoing an "inevitable" second wave of infections on Friday.
