Ep.7 The Law: Are they legally taking our rights?
Show Notes

Greetings once again beloved listeners, we hope you're holding up as we are faced with a changing world. 


We're pretty sure you know how the lockdown works, basically there are rules that have been set out to keep us in our households in order to prevent the spread of the corona virus, where the only time you are able to leave your house would be in accordance with the regulations. There are different stages with different regulations and  the regulations ease of as the stages phase out, in order to allow economic activity in turn giving us back our freedom. 

The reasons the regulations have been put into place are understandable but, they are also debatable. In this episode we explore if our rights are being unfairly taken away by the regulations that have been set in place. Are the curtailed laws overreaching ? Are they taking away our freedom unfairly?
