That's such a contrast to my area (rural Oxfordshire), I haven't seen a maskless customer in a supermarket since the rule came in.
Just been to the Tesco at Roneo Corner in Havering (1 borough further out than Barking and Dageham).
38 customers without a mask inside the store (excludes kids even teens, excludes anyone with a pointless visor, excludes anyone with a green and yellow lanyard which means they're exempt).
8 members of staff without a mask (again, excluding as above).
Highlights include:
* a woman in Islamic dress with a head scarf and eye veil, she had covered every inch of her skin EXCEPT for her mouth and nose.
* a staff member with a managers badge and no mask
* a parent who took off his mask and gave it to his baby to play with once he was inside
* an aisle with about 40 people crammed in looking at the discount section with a staff member with no mask holding a "2m social distance" sign and getting in people's way, but not stopping them or asking anyone to move on!?
