Left Hand: "Sure, the same as me, making sure everyone's muzzled in shops! Right..?"
Right Hand: "Errr..."

Boris should have listened to Michael Gove. I think you are still going to get the busybody's that will question and heckle those that don't wear a mask. In the run up to Friday it needs to be on national television to not question people who are not wearing a mask. At least the mentally ill and disabled can then tell busybody's to mind their own business.
An easy get-out for flouters. Anyone who claims to be exempt from wearing a mask (or wearing it properly so that nostrils and mouth are effectively covered) should given the option of wearing a noseclip and displaying a valid exemption, stapled to the upper lip.
I'm awaiting my laminated exemption card which I will happily show to the gatekeeper but then hide, ready to brandish at any sanctimonious finger pointer. As an aside I had a daily after School job with W.H.Smith & Sons. Each day at 17 25 I stood by the door not letting anybody else in. Oh the aphrodisiac of Power!
Phone the police if you like, if they are anything like ours you will be given a crime number but only if you insist. Reports of crime that need a number to be issued pushes up the crime figures and spoils the fiction crime is going down so if you don't insist you won't get a number and it never happened.

Yup! Already seen one Karen harassing a disabled woman. There'll be more.
"I'm awaiting my laminated exemption card..."
It seems - anecdotally - you won't need it in shops - no staff challenging. It's the public you've got to watch out for!
"...so if you don't insist you won't get a number and it never happened."
The theory of government in a nutshell!
