Well the country is already split into England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland. This tier thing is ridiculous. I just watched the local news and because three areas of Lancashire are higher, the whole of Lancashire is in tier three instead of the three regions who's rate are higher. I thought that was the whole point of the system, to restrict higher areas not just lump the whole county into lockdown.
To be honest I'm losing the will to live with it, to me it looks like it was rolled out to deliberately be confusing and misleading, not to mention manipulated. The country can't go on like this indefinitely.
