Social distancing norms flouted as people flock to pubs after lockdown eased in UK
The reaction of the public after the opening of the bar and pub in London, the capital of England, on July 4, were surprising. When people who had not been out for months due to Coronavirus got the opportunity to hang out and found pubs, bars and restaurants etc. open, they could not control themselves and went out of control by drinking alcohol. Thousands of people flouted social distancing to drink liquor when the pub opened on Saturday. Police had to arrest four people due to violent incidents in many places.
Bars had to be closed
Drunk people craeting ruckus in London, Blackpool and Newcastle had to be thrown put of pubs, due to the rowdy behavior of the crowd some pubs had to be closed in Nottinghamshire had to be closed due to rowdy behavior and four were arrested. Inspector Craig Berry of Nottinghamshire Police said reports of antisocial behavior was received in a pub with reports of a window breaking and a minor attack.
PM Boris Johnson made this appeal
Prime Minister Boris Johnson urged Britons to be “sensible” and to behave as per the rules. Along with this, despite the relaxation of restrictions, there was also a threat of local lockdown for not behaving properly. Health Secretary Matt Hancock also said in this regard that people are entitled to have fun in pubs etc. But if someone breaks the law then that person can also go behind bars. Pubs have been opened with screens, posters and markings on the floor to explain the rules of social distancing, etc. and to help protect customers from the corona virus.
Pubs will be allowed to show football matches, but all this should be done with utmost quietness so that no alcohol will be spilled from the noise of the noisy drinkers. People will be allowed to go to the pub along with any one member of the house. They will have to write their full details in the pub before leaving the city. Instead of going to the bar, people will have to wait for their order to sit at the table.
