Liberty After The Lockdown
SUGGESTED
- Laws passed in late March 2020 to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic are the greatest restrictions on liberty in modern British history.
- Any benefits that have emerged as a side effect of the restrictions have been far exceeded by the costs to the economy and to civil liberties.
- Civil society and the media should maintain pressure on the government to repeal the Coronavirus Act and its associated regulations as soon as the crisis has passed.
