Captured on an exercise walk with my camera during the December "Christmas Lockdown" of 2020.
We were not allowed to see our loved ones indoors, in fact I haven't seen my own family for nearly two years because I am 300 miles away and clinically vulnerable. No Christmas parties were allowed. We made the most of our festivities alone while thousands of people, during that lockdown, were unable to say goodbye to their dying loved ones. The government, by many accounts, enjoyed a series of parties however. Politics aside, even if you voted for them, they are laughing at you - they are laughing at all of us. This is not about party politics - this is about basic human decency.
Be rightfully angry but please do not let it stop you from taking the right public health measures to keep people safe during the pandemic. There is worse of this miserable virus yet to come and we all have a part to play. Stay safe my Flickr friends.
