The UK has been one of the freest countries in terms of restrictions.

I wasn't happy with the restrictions but they never went as crazy as the rest of Europe. Overall I'm glad we had Boris and not someone from the other side who would have been even more draconian - even if having a real conservative would have been better.

Which countries do you have in mind when you say "rest of Europe"? For example, Switzerland (one country I've been following pretty closely) seems have had less strict restrictions than the UK pretty much throughout the pandemic.

(To be clear, I'm not qualified to say which is a better approach, I'm just curious about your comparison.)

Interesting conclusion given by almost every measure the UK restrictions have been more draconian than the rest of europe.
