Hahahahahaha. They’ve also took some signs down. Misses went in there to get a takeaway during lockdown, and they made indirect comments about her wearing mask and signing in. These brought the attention on to themselves. I’m so so glad, the fine should be a lot lot worse 👍

The owners will be broke before the pandemic is over if they continue on that absurd path

Is $1000 a big enough fine for a business. That's the type of fine you give an individual. Not a business.

Great Northern on tap says it all really….💁🏻‍♂️

Meanwhile the selfless majority are getting on with it.

“All welcome”...what a terrifying message. Vilifying freedom seems to have become a pastime for many in this country. I hope when you get what you wish for, it is worth it.

Good lord.....come Dec 1st it won't matter.....
