The British government says people with COVID-19 will not be legally required to self-isolate in England starting later this week. Prime Minister Boris Johnson said ending restrictions will let people “protect ourselves without restricting our freedoms.”

Wes Streeting, health spokesman for the main opposition Labour Party, accused Johnson of “declaring victory before the war is over.”scrapping vaccine passports for venues and ending mask mandates in most settings apart from hospitals in England. Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, which set their own public health rules, also have opened up, although more slowly.

Now the Conservative government says it will remove “all remaining domestic COVID regulations that restrict public freedoms” as part of a “move away from government intervention to personal responsibility.” The announcement will please many Conservative Party lawmakers, who argue that the restrictions were inefficient and disproportionate. It could also shore up Johnson’s position among party lawmakers, who have been mulling an attempt to oust him over scandals includingBut scientists stressed that much remains unknown about the virus, and future variants that may be more severe than the currently dominant omicron strain.

Lol the same day the Old Queen gets Covid 😂

So sad and scary

Canada take some notes

This aged well.

It's wild how all the worst leadership in the world is coming from goofy-haired white men pushing the same dumb plan to ignore things until they kill enough other people.

England leads the way as Biden & some states continue fascist vaccine policies , Canada tramples and clubs vaccine mandate protesters and Australia has Covid detention Camps. Bravo Boris !

My freedom is going to be restricted because people are going to be wandering around with covid rather than isolating.

'freedom' i hate this word so much. so misused.

What I think will happen is what's been happening in Melbourne here. People will self lockdown essentially, however I can also see a loophole in that a business can still have as a condition of entry a negative pcr/rat test.

This is not a scientific led decision but a political one to try and save his neck and job.

Aren’t people with HIV legally required to use protection and make it known to other sex partners about their status? So this means if you’re contagious with COVID-19 you can go out and about, socialize, do whatever without informing people around you. Court challenge required.

About time.

It’s common sense to self-isolate if you have covid and are infectious. But betting on common sense is a risky proposition. Hope this works out and doesn’t spawn another variant.

I am in a British territory, and we still are mandated to wear masks, even outdoors. BVI's Tortola

England's PM wants to party! It's time for England's countrymen to start taking care of themselves.

Having infected people unfettered, mingling with everyone, is a serious restriction on both the vaccinated and the vulnerable. Go forth and infect will kick off a new wave. The 'honour system' has problems.

True. A bit like having a blooming STD and keeping that little secret to yourself, because.. Ok, so these politcreeps love /are paid by Russia, you say? For the first time I get it : playing Russian Roulette with not THEIR but with YOUR lives. Got it. Russia. See?

End restrictions ie safeguards and “protect ourselves”? How’s that been working out in Denmark? Not well.

People will manage their own conditions like they do when they have the flu. The Left isn’t gonna like this however because Covid-19 has been manna from Heaven to their cause.

For those of you who don’t understand the British dialect.. please watch the full English translation. Below:

🤣

The prime minister is just trying to kill us all.

What’s happening later this week?
