|---|---|---|
| LjL | "lockdown" | 01:58 |
| LjL | "Britain is the one G7 country where activity is still to return to its pre-pandemic levels and on current trends it will be some time before it does. Growth has not exactly been stellar anywhere else in the developed world either but the UK’s performance has been especially poor." | 01:59 |
| LjL | well Italy had a much stricter lockdown, is in G7, and is growing more than the UK... | 01:59 |
| LjL | so maybe lockdowns, especially loose ones, aren't the main thing to blame | 02:00 |

| ublx | LjL: so if Italy had a stricter lock down and is now experience greater economic growth.. then lock downs improve future economic performance.. by.. reducing the proportion of the population taken out of work by long term illness? | 03:27 |

| LjL | ublx, or there's simply a stronger rebound because we had a stronger recession | 03:35 |
| ublx | "Britain’s flirtation with recession and a new era of austerity, alongside semi-permanent economic stagnation are the consequences of a policy response to the pandemic that was far-reaching in its scope and severity." | 03:35 |
| ublx | ok | 03:35 |
| LjL | although i don't know if we were technically in recession either | 03:35 |
| ublx | "Given that the price paid for lockdown was colossal and is still rising ..." | 03:35 |
| ublx | claimed, not demonstrated | 03:35 |
| ublx | overall, i rate this article: gibberish | 03:35 |
| LjL | ublx, the thing is, if the lockdowns had been done by a left-wing government, then it would be right-wing papers saying this stuff | 03:35 |
| LjL | i've seen this also with Greece | 03:36 |
| LjL | in Italy, the right wing was mad for deprivations of freedom | 03:36 |
| LjL | in Greece, the left wing was mad for the same reason, as the government was (is) right-wing | 03:36 |
| LjL | (in Italy it wasn't *quite* right-wing, not like now, anyway, IT'S COMPLICATED) | 03:36 |
| ublx | it's a ridiculous premise anyway. the british government machinated as much as possible to delay lock downs, and to cancel the lock downs as soon as possible, generally timing them appallingly. and the only thing swiss-cheese about british covid policy was the quality of those lock downs. and as almost everywhere, the manifest airborne predominance of transmission was denied an nauseum | 03:44 |
| ublx | the author is ofc right that "policy response" and implementation was a failure, but after that he's just brain dumping the contents of his mind, correspondence with reality be damned | 03:45 |
