THE other day I woke up to the BBC Radio news. The headline story was that “dozens of Conservative MPs have written to the Prime Minister to demand that he commit to removing all Covid-19 legal restrictions by the end of April.”
It was a bizarre, reckless, self-defeating plan, which even Boris Johnson rejected. But how it became such big news tells us something about the artificiality of mainstream politics right now.
The letter calling for the lifting of all lockdown measures by April was created by what the BBC termed the “lockdown-sceptic Covid Recovery Group (CRG),” with around 63 members.
