Went a walk with my mum today, went past a play park full of kids and all the parents swarmed together around a table (about 20 of them) and my mum says 'aww, that's nice to see'. We (in the UK) are supposed to be in a national lockdown, the government have specifically made it ILLEGAL for gatherings of more than 2 people outside. I'll say before I get slated, I have never seen an issue with however many people gathering outside as they always bang on about how low transmission rates are outdoors but it is currently illegal and everyone know you shouldn't be doing it. So how is seeing reems of kids and parents gathering the best thing ever but if they were a group of single, young adults or, heavens forbid, teenagers everyone would be up in arms and the police would be rang left right and centre? Just last night someone decided to post on the 'community' Facebook page about a group of teenagers just standing in the village playing music. How was that not okay but massive gatherings of kids and people with kids are? I just feel like, England especially, has turned into a country that only cares about kids and those who have kids, fuck the rest of us we don't exist. England is meant to be my home, but as a single young adult it doesn't feel like my home wants me anymore.
