Police launch online form for you to dob in people who go out too much!
This lockdown seems to have brought out the absolute worst in humanity. It seems like all the Karen’s of the world finally have their soapbox and they’re damn well going to use it. I can’t even scroll through Facebook without at seeing at least 5 people bitching off random strangers for going out walking or driving their car with more than 2 passengers. Who made you the judge, jury and executioner, Karen?
Well, for those who love to snitch and bitch about their neighbours, their day just got a whole lot brighter. The police have just created an online form which will allow you to dob people in at the click of a button and I must say, it’s got a hint of Nazi Germany about it. Thankfully I’m not the only one who thinks that. Check out some of the comments:
Proper sinister shit right there. While I get that people shouldn’t be buggering off to the park to meet their mates, I don’t think shopping them to the police is the way to go. Lawyer David Allan Green agrees:
This is unpleasant form of policing and it is‘unwise to encourage neighbour to spy on neighbour, as it tears social fabric. If police are receiving too many calls, then they should be telling the callers not to waste police time.Convenience does not justify the externality of creating a fearful society, of neighbours snitching on neighbours.
Boom. You tell’em David! I can already think of at least ten people who would use this system so we’re not off to a great start.
