Lockdown's 'economic disaster', says William Hague

Nov 22,2023 11:11 am

Ex-Tory leader William Hague says a lockdown is to be scrapped, an "economic disaster" and calls for the two-Meter distance rule.

Mr Hague said the lockdown has been growing inequality, social tension and debt.

The hospitality industry, and some members of Parliament and scientists, have for the 2m (6ft) rule That relaxed to be in England.

No said 10, an examination will generally be completed "in The Coming weeks".

And Transport Secretary-General, Grant shapp's said That the government would not change the limitation to 4. July at the earliest.

He told Bbc Breakfast That The Public would be "very vindictive", if the UK experienced a second sting of the coronavirus caused by "noise" is a change in the restrictions.

So Far , England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland all have been waiting for, the two-Meter rule.

It Comes as official figures show, The Number of staff lists in the UK, wage and salary, to reflect the effect of about Six Weeks in lockdown.

But economists say the Full Impact on employment will not be felt until the wage-conveyor systems at the end of October.

In his article, Mr Hague said, the blocking was so "destructive", it could "only be allowed to happen again".

He urged the government to waste the quarantine rotten, on international arrivals - which requires all people arriving in the UK to isolate itself for 14 Days and the 2m-social distancing-rule.

"We can Now see That it is not necessary to keep a two-Meter separation between people, The Virus is on the retreat, where it is already at a low level," he writes.

"We know from The Experience of countries such as Denmark, France and Germany, where the recommended distance is shorter, and should we not take a week long agonizing over. "

Mr Hague also said the government needed to expand testing of coronavirus.

Other Tory MPs have echoed Mr Hague's words.

the Former Tory leader Iain Duncan Smith has warned MPs That they were losing "in danger, from the eyes warned of what will happen, probably to the poorest In Society ".

the Ex-defense Minister Tobias Ellwood told The Commons That the halving of the social distancing to 1m would be a "game-changing" and should Now be carried out.

And, Carl Heneghan and Tom Jefferson from the Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine at the University of Oxford said, there is no evidence for the 2m-rule.

you said it was "seriously schools, pubs, restaurants, and hamper our ability to go about our daily lives".

"wash hands and encouragement are rules, what we need is not formalized. "

But Mr. shapp's told Bbc Breakfast : "people, I think rightly-to be very resentful over a second spike caused by noise from two meters to one Meter, or whatever.

"So What we do is - right Now , right examination of all The Evidence and we are aware That other countries have different conclusions. "

Sir Patrick Vallance , the British chief scientific adviser, said: "It is a risk-based assessment of at-risk and the risks associated with distance, so That the risk falls to 2m.

"is It wrong to portray this as a scientific rule, which says That it is not 2m, or Nothing - That is what the advice was and it is not what the Council is Now . "
