My thoughts are that as a society the UK is quite immature compared to other nations.

Surely the UK population knows the score on CV. But are they immature as a whole? No, of course not. And I don't consider other European nations to be any different in that sense.

The immature minority, however, can cause infection chaos through their casual carelessness.

With regard to whether or not we have sensible restrictions:

I would say that the tiering system is eminently sensible as it does not introduce more restrictions than are necessary across the country. The challenge is, as you say, with maturity so that people in a a higher tier area don't go round contaminating their lower tier neighbours.

Because that can't be controlled, let it rip is the answer with special protection and support given to vulnerable people. That way the economy can continue recovery etc.
