URGING PEOPLE & BUSINESSES TO “TAKE BACK CONTROL” 

 We firmly believe that the Prime Minister has made a spectacular error in further delaying the removal of Covid restrictions. The extension of restrictions is not justified on either medical, economic or on political reasons.

Lockdowns do not work. It inflicts damage on the poorest in society and on the small businesses on which the economy and recovery depends.

The policy of zero-COVID now appears to be the aim of the UK Government. This is not achievable and provides the Government the means to endlessly continue lockdown restrictions and continued erosion of civil liberties and crushing small businesses.

Norman McKenzie-Richmond, Chairman of the Together for Tourism Alliance commented:

The cure has now become far worse than the virus.

I am urging people and businesses across our nation to take-back-control. Do not wait for a nervous and indecisive government to return your freedoms.  Now is the time to simply ignore these restrictions and open. Let’s return to normal now.

The Government has successfully terrified the people of this country into believing that the Covid-19 virus and its variants are almost an extinction-level event and that we must destroy our economy and remove all our freedoms to fight it. This is sheer nonsense and must end.
