alistair and Sir Keir wouldn’t have lifted restrictions in July and would have imposed a pre Christmas lockdown.
Yep, one need only look at the absolute clusterfuck of Welsh Labour and the SNP to see how totally unnecessary so many of the restrictions are and have been, and to register the extent to which they’re motivated by political and temperamental viewpoints.
Generally those leaning socialist have been much more risk averse and lacking in minerals, so have been much more keen to hunker down and impose restrictions.
Furthermore, as they and their supporters are more likely to work in the public sector or low-paid roles, and less likely to be “wealth creators” they’re much more happy to see the economy trashed and dynamism reduced.
