Facemasks will be compulsory in shops and supermarkets in England from next week, in a U-turn on previous policy.

The new legislation will come into force in England on 24 July, after weeks of wrangling from ministers about their effectiveness.

Facemasks have been mandatory on public transport across the country since 15 June, and Scotland has already made the coverings compulsory for shoppers. "Shopkeepers need to step up to the plate and take some responsibility," said Ken Marsh, of the Metropolitan Police Federation, which represents rank-and-file officers.

Seems like a case of 'shit covid19 is real' and face masks are important / compulsory only once the Nation's leader is directly affected.

What if you.don't have one?
