No U turn on essential goods ban

[dml1954]

I think Drakeford has done some good (metro) and also some bad (M4 relief) but this one is the wrong decision for the right reasons.

I understand why it’s implemented. You know the sort, can’t cope with being bored, or inside with children so ‘pop to the shop for something to do’. But it’s just going to piss the people that aren’t going to listen anyway, and divide them further.

Lets face it, he’s a nobody who is having his hour of fame in the spotlight and is milking it for all its worth to try to make a name for himself. This ban on ‘non essential goods’ makes no sense whatsoever, as does having a national lockdown whilst the rest of the UK doesn’t. When this is all over he will disappear again hopefully, although ‘doing a Drakeford’ could well become an accepted phrase in future years for describing someone who is unduly stubborn, pedantic and dithering (or possibly someone who wears clothes that are two sizes too big 😀😀).
