Скачать или смотреть All Covid fines should be reviewed, MPs say

A group of MPs have called for a review of all coronavirus fines issued under lockdown laws, branding them as “muddled, discriminatory and unfair.”

The Joint Committee on Human Rights said that the current system “criminalises the poor over the better-off.”

They added that they had “significant concerns” over the validity of the fines, as well as the size of the penalties and the criminalisation of those unable to afford to pay.
