The lady had got off the ferry. So how else was she going to get home? If you’re running on empty and ran out before you got home you’d be in the exact same situation under our genuinely mental rules. You’re out of isolation. Jail. 

You'd plan your time better and get petrol in the UK.

It was very clearly laid out - "You can come to the IOM as long as you agree to go straight home and isolate". Person chose not to do that. Person got in trouble.

Just another example of governments traumatising their populous. The schooling system continues to do this with it unrealistic, uninformed and unbalanced curriculum which makes children sit inside for 25 hours a week learning things that will be irrelevant to them once they leave school.

Fair point.  I wonder what would have happened had this happened?  Or just a generic breakdown, flat tyre etc.

If that was the case (why didn't fuel up before leaving the originating port) then a reasonable response would have been a warning to go straight from the petrol station to home, or if they ran out of petrol, arrange roadside assistance.

What is your evidence that events played out as you described them?  Or are you working off third hand gossip about how things when down?

So which particular measures did you circumvent to go about your life?

And what was so important about your life that you felt circumventing them was the right thing to do for yourself and the greater community?

Also for the fourth time, please answer the above.

If there was a genuine issue, like a breakdown, I imagine road side assistance would be arranged and everyone would go about their day.

There is much more to this that either Bosley is aware of or is letting on.

Jail probably. Go directly to jail. Remember the Island was being policed by various curtain twitchers and deranged snitchers at the time who were keeping the police busy so I would have thought that someone would be more worried about breaking down and being exposed by a snitcher as not isolating rather than simply sticking a bit of fuel in the car to make sure that they got home. The sentence would have been the same anyway - jail! You can’t really apply rational thought to such insane times really. What other insane jurisdiction would throw someone in jail for such a thing? Equally what other jurisdiction would barricade 100 people into a hotel for two weeks straight off the boat in some insane frenzy just because they’d been on holiday? Possibly China. Where nobody cares about anyone’s human rights.

NZ for a start.  They also had to apply via a lottery for the right to go on holiday in the first place.  They quarantine for 2 weeks in a hotel when they came back.

But if they ran out of petrol they would still have been arrested for being out and about out of isolation so it’s Catch 22 isn’t it? Get arrested for getting petrol, or get arrested for running out of petrol and not isolating. The whole thing was bollocks. 

It might've have helped if the woman who stopped for petrol hadn't kicked-off on the cops and resisted arrest. She was fully informed of the emergency laws before she got off the boat.

Let’s remind ourselves...

Kicked off according to them who like to shame the public to justify their own actions. Although I’m sure many people would have kicked off at being arrested and threatened with prison for such a genuinely pathetic thing.

Yes NZ too to be fair. And look at her global reputation now in tatters. The covid nutter Prime Minister who is now a global pariah for her insane pandemic approach.

I went about my life in a way that many of the ridiculous rules imposed by a deranged government and administered by a deranged civil service and court system had the least impact on my life. The fact that we put 72 people in prison is a source of national shame and should be noted in the history books. In the exact same way that coaching people off the boat like plague carriers and locking them inside a hotel for two weeks should also be noted for the history books as genuinely insane behaviour by public officials. 

“like plague carriers “ is exactly what they were, though. 
Yes, it should be noted in the history books that the government did the right thing at the time. 
The only shame is that you don’t understand that.
