It's a political move and little to do with protecting us. I had a look at the paper which Prof Drakeford quotes as the evidence and the conclusion is.... the easing of the lockdown rules in July/ August has corresponded with an increase in cases with data suggesting that increases in Wales may be driven by imports from other parts of the UK and wider worldOriginally Posted by Hilts
And how do you police this? The Severn Bridge has 30,000 vehicles cross into Wales each day. That will continue.
In North Wales 36,000 workers move out of their areas to work each day, and 23,000 come in to these areas...
In South East Wales the figures are 57,000 out, 32,000 in
This is not to say they they commute to England but they move in and out of their localities and there must be some traffic to England
Trying to stop tourists from high risk areas is not viable when there is such a large amount of daily traffic anyhow, and probably not worth the immense effort required to police it properly.
AS I said earlier our FM seemingly can't help trying to score points
