Footballwipe Posted 11 July 2020 Posted 11 July 2020 Genuinely can't see any local lockdown being ended before September. Maybe I'm being a pessimist, but I actually don't think I've seen one iota of good news come out since this started at the end of June. I tell you what, though, the local economy is going to be grim when it does reopen.

Surely the people of Leicester won’t comply with us staying in lockdown for another 7 weeks whilst the rest of the country gets back to some sort of normality. I live in a lockdown area Glen Parva 1 mile away from Blaby who aren’t in lockdown. I have followed the rules all the way through pretty much since March. But if this current lockdown is extended whether people think I am right or wrong I won’t be abiding by it any longer.

Glenfield and Glen Parva residents have been very vocal in opposition to being included, which is absolutely their right. As mentioned maybe it's just me being in the zone dragging my mood, but I'm struggling to see the light at the end of the tunnel, though defiance will grow if it continues that long, I'm certain.

Mark 'expert' Lawrenson Posted 11 July 2020 Posted 11 July 2020 I live outside the lockdown area and am listening to hoards of people getting drunk at Blaby club, don’t suppose there’s any social distancing going on. Cant see the Leicester lockdown ending before August .

Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot Posted 11 July 2020 Posted 11 July 2020 I'm due back at work in Wigston in the hospitality industry on Saturday, when exactly are the government going to say if the lockdown is extended or lifted? I don't want to travel in to Leicester if I don't have to.
TeamRocket Posted 11 July 2020 Posted 11 July 2020 Does anyone if its safe to travel in to Leicester got elderly parents who need some working doing to there home and I was wondering if it safe to travel in to Leicester.

If your parents are elderly, I Would give it a swerve maybe…. If it’s non urgent work, it can probably wait…

Woodbank not in lockdown, New Bridge Road is. 528 yards away from each other.

I mean I've read that he's utterly devastated at the way he's been treated by the community. Councillors have had absolutely no say in where the lockdown area was thrust, and the ellipsis speculation that these people had a say it not only unhelpful but damaging to reputations of people who have represented their community for 25+ years. But continue to make subtle digs at something which is a genuine coincidence. No worries.

A lot people think it's very strange where the lines are drawn hence why it was legitimately worth highlighting and questioning. I'm sure you are smart enough to realise that.

I’m hearing Boris has already paid the subscription for his 20 kids to go to Leicester Grammar and O’Neils flat down Brawnie gate has been redecorated so looks likely.
