Coronavirus - Was Burnham right to fight the tier 3 lockdown?

Ditto!

Warrington moves into tier 3 tomorrow. Situation will be reviewed in 28 days.

Burnham's making a fuss about Tesco now!

To be fair he has a point but again it is down to the public to put masks on and not really Tesco (or even the local pub or wherever else) to enforce it.

They are people paid to stack shelves not a punch on the nose (or far worse) dealing with the scum that is out there on the streets thinking they can do whatever they want and fuck everyone else.

What does Burnham expect, every shop in the country to hire door security?

Andy Burnham attacks Tesco over face coverings

Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham has criticised Tesco for not enforcing coronavirus rules on masks.

He told the House of Lords Economic Affairs Committee that, during recent talks with the government over tier three restrictions, he had asked for powers to close businesses not deemed to be doing enough to make themselves Covid-safe.

Mr Burnham said: "I'm not just talking about pubs and restaurants. There are large supermarkets in Greater Manchester who in my view have not properly implemented the requirements around face coverings.

"I'll name one chain, Tesco. I don't believe they have taken a responsible attitude to this issue. They've said it's not for them to enforce. Well, I think it is for those organisations to enforce."

The BBC has contacted Tesco for comment.
