Hi All - Between today and the 24th July in every shop I go into where the shopkeeper isn't wearing a mask I am going to politely ask, " Excuse me, I see you aren't wearing a face mask. Does it not worry you that you might catch the virus from your customers between now and the 24th?" I will be very interested to see what they say. It will be a bit hypocritical for shopkeepers to enforce mask wearing when they are not doing so themselves. I will post some of the answers I receive in time.

It is 20 minutes long, but this video is a wonderful analysis of medical torture. I particularly love her description of going unmasked in shops, which I do all the time and have never been challenged - but those sideways looks!
Face masks make you stupid:
Just been to hobby craft, the woman on the door wouldn't let me in without a mask, I said that I don't wear one and she gave me a look and said ah well. It's not her business why I don't wear one but I didn't like her tone. I'm pretty stubborn so hobby craft can shove off if they think I'm shopping there again. They don't get to tell me what to wear.
This is what they were saying at the "height" of the "plandemic". Just look at her "title".

Went to my local East of England Co-op today, my first trip to the shops (other than a click & collect from Tesco which doesn't really count) since the muzzle diktat came in last week. Glad to get the first one out of the way, but no problems at all. Went straight in, nobody said anything, no funny looks as far as I'm aware. All other customers were muzzled, checkout assistants all wearing visors without masks. Even had a nice chat with the assistant who served me (who I vaguely know). Asked her if any colleagues had come down with the wu-flu (they hadn't - surprise surprise!). She agreed with me that it's ludicrous to bring this in at this late stage. As I left I said (making sure it was loud enough for the queue behind me to hear) that this is nothing to do with the virus and is all about control, and that we need to take a stand now before it gets worse! Didn't see any anyone rip their masks off as a result, but I'm sure it didn't go unnoticed and it felt pretty good!
Hi All,
Went to ASDA yesterday with no mask, obviously anxious although I shouldn't have been. Just felt like I was looking for a fight. Anyway, the first person I came across was a lady with no mask either so that helped me relax. No problem through the aisles. A very polite voice over the tannoy later said "Will customers with and without masks please be aware and respect each others spaces" or something to that effect. Well done ASDA. Our local paper today printed an article (attached) on "Masks coercion" by a lecturer against it so kudos to him.
The comment to this acticle is even better
OFF-MESSAGE: Deputy Chief Medical Officer says Masks can increase risk of viral contamination, walking down the street people shouldn;t be wearing them (!!!!!) reported in the Independent & Daily Mail: I saw it here:

I haven't worn a mask in any shop. Nobody has asked me why yet but if they do I will say we need to rise up against the government and force them to back down. In the supermarkets I've not yet seen more than one other customer not wearing a mask. It's like my whole town (Guildford) has turned into the Borg.
my last comment on masks I hope. I know masks are a political decision but I’m still showing that it’s a bad decision for our health, based on examination of the June update of WHO guidance. Parts of the WHO website were not updated and still advise against masks, see attached slides.
6 days on and only one challenge so far. The following are not asking questions: East of England Co-op, Central England Co-op, WhSmith, Morrisons, Tesco Express, Aldi, Boots (which surprised the family member who went in). Uplifted today to see my first non-muzzled customer in local Co-op. On all previous visits I have been the only one unmuzzled. No one questions and no one tut-tuts or gives long stares. I guess being a healthy looking, almost 6ft tall, 13 stone male might be a reason for not being approached by any self-righteous muzzlers, but then again maybe we just happen to live in a nice, polite part of rural Suffolk where live and let live applies.
This one is for you blokes. Enjoy :)
How to make a face mask
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0JjivWyOXbE
I've just been to Sainsbury's. I wasn't going to shop in supermarkets anymore (I spent all my accumulated spy-on-what-you-buy points last Thursday, in preparation, and stocking up on non-perishables etc), but UKCOLUMN showed sheeple/77 Brigade comments demonising Sainsbury's for saying that they wouldn't enforce masks and advising sheeple to boycott Sainsbury's so I decided that they deserved my custom, at least for now.
There was nobody on the door (a first for me since this nonsense kicked off) and I wasn't challenged by anybody, BUT, apart from one young lady/girl in a group of four youngsters aged (2 lads both in masks aged around 17 and a younger girl who kept pulling the neckline of her top up to cover her face), EVERY SHOPPER was wearing a mask!!! This was much worse than I'd anticipated.
Some of the staff on the shop floor had masks. The cashiers didn't. I was able to have a friendly chat with my cashier and a bit of a laugh.
Hi everyone, I thought I would share my experiences of not wearing any mask so far. I haven't worn any, not once, and refuse to comply with this manipulation. So far, i have been able to walk in shops and supermarkets with no problems, haven't been challenged once by staff or other customers....until this morning...the experience was not nice but I was prepared to face this kind of interaction. In a Esso petrol station: i put some petrol in my car, then walk in the shop to make a payment, ignoring the signs as usual. The person taking my payment reminds me that I should wear a mask next time I come in. I say I do not wear any mask. He says you then need to bring an exemption card, to which I replied I do not have to do that. Then a couple of lines alongside the Regulations. I walk out and proceed to check the air in my tyres, then I see the same person walking towards me and in an aggressive tone, telling me that he is the manager of the petrol station and that he decides on the rules about mask wearing in his shop. To which I calmy ask what his name is and say that I will make sure I will not be using his petrol station again...but he does not need my custom he says! Although I have been preparing myself to this kind of unpleasant situations, i felt harassed and discriminated against, especially after noticing several male customers going in the shop with no mask on. I am considering putting a complaint,...any suggestion as to how to do this/who to contact would be appreciated...I will not surrender though.
I refuse to play their game and claim to be exempt from wearing a mask due to my 'hidden disability'.
This government has made it a criminal act to breathe freely in designated areas.
Just think about it.
It is now a crime, punishable by £100 if you breathe normally in shops etc.
What is next?
Will I have to pay a yearly fee to acquire a licence to breathe air?
The whole thing is mass psychosis.
It is an affront to my human dignity and self respect to claim I suffer from a mental illness which will be triggered by the wearing of a mask.
That's what the challenge at the door of "Are you exempt?" means.
They are asking if you are a mentally ill person.
NO NO NO!
I will not lower myself and consent to being humiliated by anyone, let alone the shop staff (such as those in Waitrose) in this manner.
The government is using food to control us and force us into changing our behaviour to what they want.
This is most objectionable
We are at the start of a great depresion
Hyperinflation is about to take off.
Unemployment is rising.
Small businesses which survived the lockdown are struggling
These retailers who are insisting that shoppers wear face mask and declare themselves mentally ill, are turkeys voting for Christmas.
Let them fail. Let them go bankrupt.
If I am going to be forced into shopping with the on-line behemoths eventually, I might as well do so now.
I refuse to be insulted by any retailer who needs my money more than I need them.
Just look around you in the supermarkets
They are cutting the range of goods they offer
I'm sure they are feeling the pinch
They follow shopping trends very closely.
Can they afford to offend customers at the door with their insults?
"Hey, are you mentally ill? If you say 'yes', we'll permit your diseased carcass to enter our store and spend your much despised germ-ridden money in here. If you refuse to conform but insist that you are sound of mind, then you do not meet our conditions of entry, in which case you can take your custom elsewhere. We do not want your kind in here."
That is what I hear when I am challenged at the point of entry.
I am not a slave and I am standing up for my rights as a free spirit.
Keep your self respect and human dignity
Do not lower yourself into playing this game of hidden mental illness.
You are a better person than that.
We have the power still.
Remember the old adage that he who pays the piper calls the tune?
We haven't reached the dystopian future of Stalin's Soviet Union but it won't be long now if we do not refuse to be marched down the slippery slope
BTW Marks & Spencers is a very civilsed place to shop.
I've been chatting with some of the staff there this morning
They've been instructed not to challenge shoppers who are not wearing masks
Well done M&S.
It was the same experience at Sainsburys though I did not chat with the staff.
I never thought the day would come when I would find browsing around a supermarket to be a joyful event simply because nobody is bothering me - not the staff and not the customers.
I haven't had time to visit Tesco yet but we'll see.
At least we won't starve with Sainsburys and M&S in town.
Sigh....
Is this what society has been reduced to?
Ive had no issues shopping maskless in my town but it may be due to the fact that I seem to be the only one at the moment, and I walk fast, just whizz in and out. Not sure how shops would react to more going maskless. Would they get tougher if larger numbers started taking off the masks? or would it be the opposite effect as they cant really enforce it?
I read that article too, excellent
MG55 - You seem like a kindred spirit. I put this out on the general forum, but I'm putting it out in this section as well because 'Masks In Shops' seems to have had a lot of views for some reason!
'There is a good article on the Conservative Woman website: Don’t fall for the virus ‘second wave’ narrative
Worth a look even if you are not a woman. I would be interested to hear what others think of the article.
By the way, they are not affiliated to the Conservative Party, but have conservative views.'
MG55 - You'll like this. My husband went into the supermarket the other day with a scarf wrapped round his face. He said it was his protest at not wearing a mask! 😂
Pitiful, but I try not to judge him too harshly as he watches the mainstream news every night and believes it.
