We eased the lockdown which was needed and great sadly the British public took advantage of 50% off deals and then lapsed its disciplines, threw away the mask , got back to bad habits which threatened the vulnerable.
Huge swave of Tories agree with you , sadly and personally I'm not sure on the opposition stance its a bit cloudy.
I would like to see a collective alternative plan ( not just media and opposition critics ) from any party /group / UK region , that is both different and better and keeps the economy alive and jobs .
Importantly the tax revenues that support our critical services are at risk and may well bring even more death ,poverty and mental illness .
Yes the government are at sea, however let's be honest personal responsibility and behaviours are also at sea , people spread virus now and pre Covid.
