I honestly don't think the Tories have a clue about what is happening, even in the Cabinet. Time and time again Government Ministers come out with their own interpretations and then have to apologise for getting it wrong or "clarify" the position. That's the worst about Dom making up policy as he goes along - he only tells his close buddies what is happening and everyone else is desperately playing catch-up to look as they have been involved in the discussions.

I'm fast coming to the conclusion that all these restrictions/lockdowns are doomed to fail unless the schools and universities are forced to close. Hospitality and retail opened up in the summer with no appreciable increase in cases. Even the introduction of Eat Out To Help Out in August didn't make a massive difference. BUT schools and universities went back in September and WHOOSH, the drama and heartache for millions of people begin.
