However here's a clue, Helping Hands on GNE page and a similar scheme on nexus page, both of which I have seen on numerous occasions. As Andreos 1 says, maybe stop breaking the law, you might want to get a hold of an exemption card and stop the endless and somewhat boring ramblings on about passengers not being challenged by drivers who are much better placed than yourself.
Seriously though, if they then respond saying they're exempt, the driver lets them sit down, if they feel comfortable asking why they're exempt, then they should.
If they respond "Nah, you're alright", the driver should say "It's the law to wear a face covering when using public transport, unless you're exempt I'm going to have to ask you to leave".
If they then proceed to sit down, they should follow the same policy they use when someone boards without paying (whether it's a case of 'get over it and move on', or report them the police).
My main issue isn't necessarily with the people not wearing the face coverings, but the fact they're picking and choosing which rules to enforce
I mean, my asthma isn't severe enough to be shielding, but bad enough where I can't breathe through a mask.
Although if I'm not mistaken, they can leave the house from the 6th July as they don't fall under the ones that need to keep shielding until the end of July
