England isn’t listening to Johnson’s lockdown orders any more

Expect more of this. Tyrants can only lock people down for so long.

London: People across England are about to be hit with a deluge of new government adverts on television, radio and social media containing one blunt demand: Stay at home.

It’s a familiar message - and that may be why the public seems to be shrugging it off.



The data shows Britons are far more active during the current third national lockdown than when the first emergency “stay at home” order was given last spring. There’s more traffic on the roads, more people on trains and more shoppers making trips out.



Government officials worry too many are flouting the rules as Prime Minister Boris Johnson urges the public to try harder to avoid spreading coronavirus. With the National Health Service buckling under the weight of Covid-19 patients, the U.K. already has the highest death toll in Europe at more than 87,000.



While there are early signs that infection rates are starting to fall in places like London, and one person in 20 has now been vaccinated, officials warn life still might not be back to normal by spring.

Images of a state health-care system collapsing would risk inflicting further huge damage to Johnson’s standing, with public confidence in the government’s handling of the crisis already severely dented since it began.

Yeah, they're about done with it. My sister lives outside Harrogate. She and her husband have been basically locked in their home for almost a year. That is not healthy. As far as the NHS collapsing, welcome to the democrats vision of our healthcare system.

Kind of like here in the US.

Lockdown is only effective during the initial stages .........I think the UK has missed that boat , and possibly Brazil as well .
