Editorial: Boris Johnson’s measures aim to distract from his failures during the pandemic. Most British people are right to be uncomfortable

There are some glumly predictable tropes and cliches that Britain – and more particularly England – does not need to be bombarded with this weekend. These include: independence day; super Saturday; time to party; summertime booze; beers the good news; and, most of all, cheers, Boris. Stuff like this is simply propaganda. It is massively at odds with the rightly cautious mood – and the public interest – of the majority of British people.

If your life “demands” going to the pub, getting absolutely rat arsed and risk spreading COVID-19... you need to re-evaluate your priorities in life. You’ve had a few months to do so. You might now have a few more. SecondWaveIsComing

Oh bugger off.

If there were a Labour government, you would have applauded the return to normality. But instead you can't contain your delight in the crashing of the economy.

Boring gits

Nobody cares what leftie Guardian says you don’t even represent the country.

Seems some folk need an instruction manual for absolutely everything since this outbreak. If your terrified, stay home. It's that simple, just do your weekly shop as per the last three months.

No wonder you can read this for free. Who would pay for this patronising drivel.

Don't go then. Nobody wants to look at your miserable faces while enjoying a pint!

But Marxists protests they're fine 🤔

Says a bankrupt ORG?

ScumMedia

😴😴😴😴 No one criticised European countries such as Spain and Italy for reopening their pubs, bars and restaurants! We have to learn to live with the virus. The alternative is to stay locked down until there is a vaccine- which might never come. And the economy will be ruined.

Oh do fuck off. Three and a half months inside. You think that wasn’t cautious enough.

Where were you when thousands were going on marches these past few weeks? That’s right, you were supporting them. Let’s face it, the reason why you are moaning so much about the pubs opening is because it’s a govt decision. If the marches were a govt dec you would hate that too.

People don’t have to go to the pub you know! Why do the left want nannying all of the time? Take some personal responsibility for once in your lives!

Or reality bites. We need to get going again! One small step.

Billiant news that the doesn’t support pubs re-opening - maybe now they will be full of normal people

Dropped the ball here, Guardian. Surely, pubs must be racist.

The Guardian; a left wing trash-rag that would prefer our economy collapse. Might help get one of their crazy students into power!! I'll use naughty the C word shall I? Conservatives rule, literally..😷😷

Welcome to the Quaffe and Casket...

Stay away, please, stay away.

You allow BLM protestor, however opening a pub is wrong.

Whats your view on the Gaurdian newspaper being built off the back of slave labour?

Cautious nation? This nation has only just stopped attending protests in the thousands. You really do talk utter crap.

Oh and please can you fund our journalism because it’s shit. 🖕

The majority of Britain’s view of the Guardian is that no one cares what the Guardian says. 150,000 ish a day is hardly a viewpoint worth considering.

No-one wants woke doom mongers in the pub so thanks for arranging a break for us all.

Champagne bars ok with you?

Stop going to demo's as well then. Reperations from your slave years.

I think you'll find most people don't give a shit what your view is.

Any wonder no one reads this gutless anti UK whine?

Outside the pub enjoying a pint then it starts to rain. What happens then?

Pretty sure the had a different attitude to protests about 3 weeks ago A lot of the working class have worked throughout the pandemic don't belittle them for going to for a pint. People are free to make a choice

Oh do be quiet whilst there are some jobs we can try to salvage!

The nations view on The Guardians opinion: Yeah, well, that’s like, your opinion, man. (Dated depiction of genders alert)

Miserable sneering lefties zzzzzzz🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻

Getting hammered with mates!

Have you tried branching out to North Korea? You'll get a lot more sales there.

Guardian view on reopening pubs, saving them from closure, protecting jobs & taking this important first step to get our economy going again : a reckless risk Guardian view on illegal mass BLM gatherings, rioting & statue sabateurs : great, we support this Guardian, you stink.

Who'd want to go to a pub with a Guardian writer anyway?

What piffle.

Obviously. Where the protects reckless as well then?

The Guardian was founded in 1821 by John Edward Taylor who traded in cotton produced by the slaves of the American south. Ban the Guardian for historic slave links!

Oh quiet

Looking forward to The Guardian view on protest marches...

Fantastic news - the pubs will be far more enjoyable without lentil-munching, fun-hating Guardian readers.

What piffle. You excel yourselves in true nonsense.

Yeah nobody cares what you think

Aka we are lefties who all hate the government no matter what they do so let’s MOAN MOAN MOAN MOAN. Oh and let’s throw in the old IM OFFENDED plus MOAN MOAN too 👍🏻

It must be so miserable working for the guardian

The Guardian: A socially distanced pint under intense restrictions = a reckless risk Rampaging through London holding “defund the police” banners and beating up police = stunning and brave

Better to stay in lockdown for another year right.

Lefties want us locked inside forever.

Not like those BLM protests... Right?

A cautious nation? Well apart from all the rioters, of course.

The BLM will be in the pubs and nothing will be said. Media scum.

You rather they all close - for good?

Don't give a shit what you're opinion is, stay home if you're that bothered.

Get down the pub you boring bastards

You were and remain a wankstain on the nation brought by the meek Your demise is overdue

Communists don't like people regaining any liberty. Lockdown is heaven for them.

Utter pack of controlling fun sponge miserablists.

The Graun - glass half empty since 1821

From a rag that takes money from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. Who cares

Guardian journos first served, though, no doubt. Get a grip.

Be no racist white wine drunk by the Guardian and their readers. All the more for the rest of us then! 🥂

This seems contradictory. How can a “cautious” nation be simultaneously taking a “risk”?

Ghastly working class oiks in Wetherspoons drinking out of bottles and eating pork scratchings nooo thank you. I shall be be calling to Tarquin & Henrietta's in Islington for miscellaneous soy products and artisan cheese.

But the Guardian had no problem with BLM violent protests - what a despicable rag this once great newspaper has become.

What about BLM demos?

So you condemn riots too then? No?

Yawn. Stay home then and let the rest of the country have fun you vampiric bores 👋🏻

not everywhere will be cosy as that picture shows. wait until evening and night comes, city centres. how they get there and how they get back

Who voted them in?

So many many people in the hospitality industry have put a great deal of thought, ingenuity and effort into reopening safe environments for people to enjoy at the weekend and beyond. Can’t we just hope that this is a positive, uplifting event rather than this reflex negativity?

If we're a cautious nation we won't take a reckless risk. You've managed to contradict yourself in your headline you dundertards.

It's more reckless to keep our cities closed and jobs lost!

So what if the virus spreads? IT'S NOT A RISK TO MOST

PMBJ is an epic moron Shaking hands with covid patients Hundreds of billions of new debt A disgrace and the worst PM in history

But violent rioting mobs are totally cool.

The Grauniad is just so woefully predictable 🥺

You think. StayHome BorisMustGo ToryGenocide

Who cares
