It’s a plan imo, nothing to do with reverse psychology, just a plan. Trust the masses, if they let us down we will have to make decisions for them. During such time many things can be implemented.people are begging for it because two weeks ago it was sing happy birthday, wash your hands and take it on the chin.
It was reality that set in, not some kind of reverse psychology Boris masterclass.

The Mrs came up with what I thought was a good analogy. This virus kills people at random; it is a mindless killer which can strike anyone at random.These people, especially younger people, who are saying the mortality rate is so low it’s not worth getting worried about ... I saw a great example of demonstrating the concern people should have:
If I gave you 100 sweets and told you that 3 of them would kill you if you ate them, would you eat ANY of them?
Hurt my feelings? It’s like you don’t even know me!
Rationing underlines my point, so thanks for bringing that up. Yes, people circumvented it, especially the rich and powerful, but it was broadly observed. The notion of today’s society broadly observing rationing is comical. We’ve become sybaritic and spoilt as a society, which inevitably breeds a higher degree of selfishness.
I don’t have rose tinted spectacles about the past. There are many things about modern society I much prefer.
Nice to see you keeping a like count on your individual posts and deploying it to bolster a weak argument btw. Made me smile :-)
