Perhaps he’ll devote himself to making money.

Berry and his wife did not spend £2.15m on a house in London in 2017 and £780,000 on a house on Anglesey last year in order to spend a lot of time in Rossendale. People with multiple addresses can choose where they wish to vote. In Berry’s case it makes sense to throw the curious off the scent by being registered to vote in the constituency he represents.

I understand he is registered to vote in Rossendale..Surely his main residence.

If he is registered to vote here in Rossendale then surely this is his main residence ? I know the local conservative association were upset as they did not know where he was.

That’s a lot of money for a cosmetic exercise, because I doubt if he spends much time in Rossendale. His main home is in London and when he’s not in SW1 most of his time will be spent at Rhyd-y-Bont.

He is registered to vote in Rossendale.

Throughout this period the family have had a nanny with them. We in Rossendale were told that his wife did not have the virus but some other, serious complaint and went into Bangor hospital. Nothing has bee said about one of the children displaying symptoms of the virus.I believe that someone has checked the local records and Mr Berry is registered to vote at his “Home Address” the property he rents here..Incidentally in the recent past an army of Govt workmen descended on this property and installed security precautions..special glass, alarms etc..These reputedly cost £29,000.. but I cannot verify the cost. The local people are becoming more and more disenchanted with our MP from what I see.

As someone who has had to do stints of work under lockdown defined as ‘key worker’ and regularly coming into contact with police officers on a regular basis on other matters, it’s important to understand what frontline police officers have to deal with. Regular crime has not gone away, and in some types of crime its character has changed. Specifically ‘lockdown breakers’ are a number of types.

The Stupid.

There are people of low intellect who genuinely do not understand their responsibilities. A ‘treat them as vulnerable’ approach is best advised and involves contacting their parents, carers, guardians, or social workers. There may also be underlying mental health issues. They are also the old and confused.

The Young and Cocky.

Many young adults have taken an attitude of ‘doesn’t affect me’ in the mistaken belief that they are immune from Covid-19. They don’t care about others in normal times. A ‘in you face’ approach is best advised, and often they will react with behaviour that allows an officer to deal with the transgressor using other offences. Those relating to public order, or even possession of small amounts of drugs, or other outstandings.

The Entitled.

These are people who say things like “do you realise who I am” or start quoting the law to police officers. The owners of holiday homes are usually of this type. As in normal times a frontline officer will take a ‘bedpan approach’. Let them dig their own hole and then issue a fine. Departing comments are often ‘I’ll be speaking to my solicitor’ but the fine is usually paid online the same day when they realise it’s a trivial amount with no repercussions.

It is the third type of transgressor that are the main spreaders of the virus in rural communities. The young and cocky tend only to mix with the same social circle. The entitled however will have holiday home dinner parties, socialise with acquaintances, both at their normal residence and fellows of similar type in holiday homes. They also have substantial contact the local community through retail, fuel, contact with NHS in older, and also with elderly relatives. There perceived entitlement does not end when they arrive at their destination.

When the Welsh Government refused to increase the fine as parity with England they have also given the ‘entitled’ a free pass to use Wales as a playground, not only have they undermined the work of front line police officers but also put the lives of the rural communities of Wales at risk. This also puts the native community at even more of an economic disadvantage. They are the ones who have signed on for benefits, are of low pay, now even lower, trapped in their homes, stuggle with food rent or mortgage and of course, law abiding.

Meanwhile the English entitled, the law-breakers, run roughshod over these communities. The Welsh government are “Fiddling while Rome burns”. Why infect the local golf club in England when the entitled arseholes can do their damage in Wales?
