The country is becoming like a massive prison.

The riots in Sydney indicate that people are getting sick and tired of this nonsense.
But you have consistently, and persistently, been against lockdowns in the UK because of this "logic".

But in reality, because we locked down, we delayed the infections enough to get working vaccines, which have avoided/prevented greater numbers of deaths, infections, and hospitalisations in the UK.
