Say no to a second lockdown.

What the petition asks
Reject any possibility of a second national lockdown, to tackle the covid-19 pandemic.
The most up to date data no longer supports the efficacy of such measures. Additionally, the social and economic impact of another lockdown would be devastating and effectively make the "cure" worse than the disease.
These measures are far too heavy handed and are an assault on our basic human rights. Personal responsibility and personal choice should now be emphasised, with those at risk given support and able to take the necessary precautions.
