Lift All Restrictions
Lift all restrictions with immediate effect and get the country back to work.
Why the contribution is important
If restrictions are not lifted soon the SNP will run this country into the ground from which it will take years to recover, peoples civil liberty’s are being eroded by the draconian measures put in place by a power hungry SNP leader who has only ever had one agenda.
These restrictions were put in place so as we would not overwhelm the NHS (so we were told) this has not happened and NHS are coping, the emergency hospitals that cost millions of taxpayers money to build have hardly or not at all been used for patients.

The UK already has the second highest number of deaths in the world - lifting all restrictions at this point will only cement that position.

Surely, the reason the NHS is "coping" is BECAUSE the restrictions were put in place.
The emergency hospitals might yet be required - let's hope not!

The World trade organisation might be lauding the Swedish system, but I don’t think the World Health Organisation is.

The dogged way in which government and media have followed a mantra (that inflicts fear) is alarming, particularly as the first principle of medicine is ‘first do no harm’. Harm is exactly what has been done.
Humans are not controlled by government. They can be lead by government and punished by the law, but they are not controlled by them. Humans all have different approaches to risk. Some prioritise living over merely existing. People at the end of their life (not Covid-related) who have been denied the opportunity to enjoy their final months and make memories.
Many reports now saying that the years lost as a result of lockdown (other medical concerns, suicide, alcohol, mental health) will likely be more than the years lost to Covid-19.
There is a need to start being honest. To say that we can not compare this virus with anything else (including flu) because our response has been completely different and impacts the statistics and therefore the story that is told afterwards. It is time to start staring that there isn’t enough medical evidence to know whether the response is doing more harm, and to level with the public and let them make choices for themselves.
The government are responsible for the NHS but they are not responsible for us. We are responsible for ourselves. The ‘nanny state’ has a negative impact on human responsibility. Society would be a better place if humans were allowed to take responsibility for themselves.
