According to that same article, "New guidance has been issued to chief constables as part of a tough new crackdown on coronavirus lockdown flouters. "
So I think laying it at the doorstep of the uniformed police out and about is unfair and misses the responsible person.
And if she had broken the law, and if they were trying to fine her / issue her a ticket in accordance with their instructions then she *does* have to give her name and address.
I suspect that she got everything she deserved.
>>I think anyone out for a walk who took a rest would probably have the same normal attitude of challenging the police
I for one would not. Nor would I call it a "normal" attitude, though absolutely far too frequent. But then, on that subject at least, I am free from chips on my shoulders.
