“Why you think you’re better than everyone else” – Nurse scolds young men defying Stay Home orders

A nurse filmed herself confronting a group of “absolute idiots” lounging around drinking beer in a park behind her home, The Independent reports.

The reports refer to an NHS worker who faced down the six young men after she spotted them defying social distancing measures as they soaked up the sunshine . The case happened in Basingstoke, Hampshire.

Another member of the group then tells her: “Stop f****** recording me now.”

But again she continues unfazed, responding: “No, if you’re going to be stupid then I’ll show the world how stupid you are. “Why you think you’re better than everyone else, I’ve got no idea.”

The video has been shared on Facebook 15,000 times since the nurse posted it on Friday.

She later wrote in the comments: “Not sure what came over me, I hate confrontation but I was so cross. Rather embarrassed now.”
