To be fair to Drakeford (and WAG) he is currently reviewing the situation but the idea is that we only go out to buy 'essentials' for the next two weeks and anyone with any sense must surely understand that with few exceptions most of the items currently covered over are far from 'essential' in a lockdown?

Not heard that one before. Can't say I've ever seen mum, dad and the kids taking their picnic hamper and frisbees into Tesco to spend a few happy hours playing in the aisles but maybe I missed that.
MInd you the way restrictions are being imposed willy nilly at the moment I guess a two week break at Aldis is about the best holiday we can look forward to for the next few years in Wales.
The point of this is not actually to do with the buying of a kettle or toaster - it's the fact that the WAG telling you what you can and can't buy has nothing to do with halting the spread of a virus and everything to do with them wanting to control what people are allowed to do.
If you're in a shop buying some vegetables how much extra time would you have to spend in there to buy a phone charger?
The next idea from WAG will be to set a strict limit on how long you can spend in a shop. From the moment you go through the door with your trolley you'll have five minutes to do your shopping or face a £10,000 fine, That'll stop the supermarket tourists - it'll be like Supermarket Sweep but with Covid Marshalls rather than Dale Winton.
That would be a great way of stopping the spread![]()

The point of closing non-essential shops is to keep people away from each and indoors as much as possible (the point of lockdown).
They ban the sale of non-essential items in shops that are allowed to remain open to be fair to those shops that are closed.
There is no rule stopping anyone using the Internet to buy non-essential items. Most shops have an online presence these days so you can still support them.

You think shutting the local clothes shop is going to stop people going to Tesco and mixing with far more people than local shop!..... no rule for internet shopping other than you need internet or you actually shop on line? I never go online for anything why should I? Its simplistic to say use internet but that doesn't cover 100% of population so some people are going to be disadvantaged by not allowing everything yo be bought in a supermarket... and its crap to say everyone uses or got internet? My mate doesn't have internet he uses
the library the ones that are now closed!and I know of lots people who got unreliable access as live in the countryside as drakeford thought about them in his dont need to shop for kettle use internet instead attitude ?

The point is people stay indoors. Do not leave for 17 days to reduce the rate of infection. ONLY go to the shop for essential items. I didn't say anything about my thoughts. If people cannot just stay in to help reduce the R Rate then we will continue to see these lockdowns. Cardiff was shown to be like Christmas eve last Thursday we people out in the pubs in town etc, the reason the rate is lower in other parts of Wales is because they are listening to the guidelines and acting on them (social distancing etc) - its not difficult, just the actions of some ruining it for everyone else (and maybe themselves if they get the virus).

Like UKIP, you can't really vote for them though can you, we need one of the big parties to bring it into their manifesto for the election as the Conservatives did with Brexit, might also be a way for them to make some headway in Wales as Brexit did for the North?

UKIP raised the issue, the tories capitalised on the idea, and Boris promised to get Brexit done, the rest is history a landslide victory taking the red wall from labour in the process.
