Also, 5 million tourist arrivals per year, compared to 40 million. And that’s just tourists, not returning nationals or other visitor types. Jacinda Arden is not a miracle worker. She had a good hand that was easily played.
There appears to be an almost pathological need amongst some to characterise every decision of the U.K. gov as necessarily and always wrong, which I’m quite certain has nothing to do with Covid-19 and everything to do with the individual in No.10 and his party affiliation.
There will be a public enquiry once this is over and done with, and doubtless it will identify errors, but I’m sure what it won’t do is draw crass and deliberately misleading parallels with very small countries in isolated corners of the Pacific ocean.
