Stacey Solomon #5

[Whaaaaat]

Maybe because we’re not sheep and don’t listen to government guidelines just because Cummings, Johnson et al are saying it’s okay, doesn’t mean all of us are going to go along with that

I, and many others, use our own risk assessments based on personal circumstance and gut feeling. Most cabinet ministers are hardly likely to be queuing at Tesco or needing to pick up their own prescriptions. So because the government say jump, I’m not going to ask how high

It’s not being a sheep to attempt to get on with your life while following government guidelines.

If your “risk assessment” is telling you to stay home, then good for you. But if other people want to go out they are completely within their right to, following the social distancing guidelines. Their circumstances might be different to yours and they will have used their own judgement.

So maybe Stacey has done her own risk assessment?

Maybe, but I was referring to the poster who stated that because the government say so, we should, lemming like, rush to those shops just because

I think the issue here is the fact that she constantly parades her fake anxiety and pretends she’s oh so nervous about leaving the house. If that were true, primark and Ikea wouldn’t be your first priority. She she wouldn’t be dragging her one year old son out either. If she really had worries about going out she could have easily placed an order online for ikea but no, she just couldn’t resist a shopping ‘haul’
I find it quite offensive the way she uses anxiety as a tool online to seem relatable. The whole “oh I feel all weird today guys I don’t know why” act but all that disappears as soon as her favourite bleeping basket store opens. duck all of these ‘influencers’ screaming anxiety when they wouldn’t know the first thing about it.

I didn’t say you SHOULD rush to the shop. I said you COULD go to the shop because they were open to be used.

But you stay at home, being grumpy and whinging at everyone else.

That’s right. Just like the good people who all rushed to the beaches in the West Country and left masses of rubbish and human excrement following great social distancing rules and exercising fabulous selfless common sense. Just because Boris said it was okay to travel any distance to exercise, excellent judgement

Ah, now when you start on the ad hominem argument you’ve lost. Hope your day gets better

That’s irrelevant because they’re not following the government guidance.

We’re talking about going to a non-essential shop with your child which is a completely different situation.

And these posts are irrelevant and off topic to Stacey Solomon so, before I catch a warning, I’m offski. Have a wonderful day

I hear ya!!

And that is why The british death toll is still high
Going to a crappy clothes shop is not essential, taking him for a food shop yes, if he urgently needed shoes or clothes (yes) but Going to primark is just beyond stupid. I don’t care he’s in pushchair, I won’t be taking my children to a shop/cafe/ restaurant for quite some time and we don’t like in the Uk with the awful numbers. ss is a moron so what’s new

But the shops are open for non essential items. She isn’t breaking any laws. You do you and let other people do what they want, albeit by the law.

I don’t think anyone had an issue with Stacey going, it’s the fact she took Rex when she didn’t have to, it was not essential therefore she could have waited til she had someone to leave him with at home x

Sorry if this has been mentioned but I skipped to the end, why is everyone saying all the shops are social distancing. In my experience nobody is social distancing, infact I've seen some disgusting people in public places even today

I don’t think anyone’s saying they all are, just that the stories on Stacey’s Instagram seemed to show she was

Who said she was breaking the law? I don’t think one person on this thread has said that, they are just pointing out that there was really no need to take a small child to a shop during a pandemic.

 

[CrackRatcher]

I wouldn’t take mine either, just mainly because our shopping centre was scary when I went the other day to grab some bits I went on my own and Disney’s were handing masks out to children in the queue.. it was scary! Security telling people where to walk.. no where to sit and feed them, only a few toilets open, huuuuuge queues which would be cruel to make any child wait in a queue for Primark.. but that’s just my shopping centre I’m sure not all are the same she seemed to say she got in no problem but I’m not sure if that’s true or not.. I just wouldn’t want to scare my kids by letting them see that, I’d rather take them out for a walk , no one social distanced in the shopping centre either I won’t be going back for a while which is obviously sad for those who work in retail if everyone ends up feeling this way

But she can. I don’t get why people are attacking her. Maybe she wants to get the child out other than the garden or a park. Some normality. There is absolutely nothing wrong with taking a child shopping and if there is then it wouldn’t be allowed.

Omggggg is still going on I'm gunna say it one more time everyone just get over it instead of arguing on here. Let's stop this now not everyone is going to agree so no point to keep going on

Yes! This!

If you want to continue to argue/discuss the rights and wrongs of shopping and social distancing then perhaps head over to the Coronavirus thread? This has gone on for pages on here now.

Agreed let’s move the hell on

I went into Disney with my girl today and I wore a mask but she was fine, they couldn’t have been lovelier in the whole shop tbf! Kids under a certain age are exempt so they need pulling up if they’re not adhering to that xx
(FYI to anyone with an issue lol - only went in to briefly spend some time with my single household dad for the first time in 15 weeks since my daughters birthday)
