• Pretty much, but I don’t buy the ‘public doesn’t listen so containment won’t work ‘ narrative they keep pushing. Try could enforce it if they needed to but they’d rather a few old dears pegged it than stop business.

    They absolutely couldn't enforce it. Not now, and not whilst remaining electable.

    If things got completely out of hand, yes, maybe. It's possible the government would have resigned if it gets to that.

  • Course they could, an election is 5 years away and loads of countries have already done it.
