Not all all, I do wish the Cornish border could be closed though and only let anything essential in.  Apparently people who should not be coming here are getting nasty, they are asserting the rules don't apply to them.

Yeh that's prolly fair enough, I think in places with very high concentrations of at-risk folk; there should be extra shielding from others.

It isn't impossible to have an accurate fine-grained lockdown but that would take competent local & national govt.

I sometimes get the feeling you revel in all this.

It will just be a politician's standoff, as always, how can we make this look like we come out smelling of roses and what else can we wring out of it. For sure.
Just because I don't say anything, it doesn't mean I haven't noticed!
