Having seen the figures for mainland Europe(France nearly 500,000 and Germany well over 100, 000 and Italy 250,000) looks as if Boris did get it right.
Nothing to do with Boris really. Once infection rates in the country are such that border controls are no longer effective there is no reason to keep them. Its just that the UK infection curve was earlier than the others so it made sense to drop entry controls quicker in the UK. France and Germany have now also dropped most of theirs. I think they all went on longer than needed but thats just my opinion and at least we are going in the right direction of travel now. Lets hope things keep improving and we can look forward to a better end of winter and then spring and summer.
