The second and third Covid lockdowns were the biggest ever mistake made by a British government in peacetime, Nigel Farage has said.
The Reform UK leader was speaking to 1,000 people at the Rainton Arena which is in the constituency of Houghton and Sunderland South, currently represented by Labour’s Bridget Phillipson.
Mr Farage told the rally: “The Tories say we’re in economic trouble because of the pandemic. But hang on, you didn’t need to lock us down for a second and a third time.
“You didn’t need to take away our freedoms in a way that weren’t even done during World War Two and all of it with Labour support.
“I actually believe the long-term economic and psychological damage from lockdowns two and three perhaps represents the biggest mistake any British government, supported by the opposition, has ever made in peacetime.”
He went on to say he treated the second and third lockdowns with “contempt”.

Vzhľadom na názor Nigela Faragea, myslíte si, že psychologický dopad lockdownov je dôležitejší problém než okamžité zdravotné výhody?

Veríte, že osobná sloboda by vždy mala byť prioritizovaná pred komunitnými zdravotnými opatreniami počas krízy?
