Quote from The Sun: Boris Johnson ruled out a half-term circuit breaker for good yesterday as he accused Labour of trying to “turn the lights out” with a national lockdown.
He stood firm after Sir Keir Starmer again insisted on the short break despite medics saying it would not work.
Hours earlier, an expert warned MPs of tens of thousands of deaths if Britain stuck with the PM’s three-tier system.
But the PM said it would be wrong to shut down the whole country when infection rates in South West England and parts of the South East are minuscule compared with the North.
Mr Johnson turned on Sir Keir, saying: “It is the height of absurdity that he attacks the economic consequences of the measures we are obliged to take across some parts of the country when he wants to turn the lights out with a full national lockdown.”

Any problem solving strategy concentrates most effort where it will have most effect.
(Pareto Principle)
With COVID 19, clamping down on the hot spots whilst leaving the rest of the country functioning has to be the better solution?
Our area has 1/20th the rate of infection compared to some northern towns.
Unless like Kier Starmer you want to drag everybody down to the same miserable level for precious little extra gain.
