The alternative is genuinely another lockdown.

All the plus sides of an open society are achievable sooner by doing the right things in the interim. Not blindly following the same people who have been wrong throughout the pandemic.
The data speaks for itself. Given that all vulnerable groups have been offered the vaccination, and most will be getting their second jab within a few weeks, mask wearing and social distancing should be deemed unnecessary from 17 May. Those not vaccinated are predominantly from non-vulnerable groups and so the NHS will not now be in danger of being overwhelmed.

The virus will be out there for years yet, so people have to learn to live with it and have regular vaccination boosters as required.
