Oh, they really have fucked this, haven't they? The thing today with a woman being told she can't buy sanitary items is gonna stick in people's minds, along with the easily-outrageous image of a nation of people being banned from buying clothes and kettles - even if that's a heavily sensationalised analysis of some well-meaning but overzealous errors. People in my work are furious at the Welsh government. As much as I think people online are being really theatrical, and it's being stoked up by those with a vested interest in undermining devolution, it's pretty undeniable that it's worked, and the damage has been done.
Unless this circuit breaker lockdown has the magic effect of curing COVID, it's going to stick in the public consciousness as a clear example of the Welsh government being out-of-touch authoritarians. The Abolish the Assembly cunts have been handed a massive early Christmas present.
