The government is giving local councils draconian powers over your life

    Mayors will be given more control over the coronavirus test-and-trace system as ministers try to secure their support for tough new local lockdown rules due to be announced tomorrow.

    In an admission that the national system is failing, ministers will empower town hall bosses to deploy an army of new local volunteers to knock on doors and ask people to self-isolate. With Covid-19 running rampant, they want local people to take charge of controlling the spread of the virus in the hope it will generate “community spirit” and “improve compliance”.

    Details of the plans were being thrashed out between Downing Street and mayors yesterday amid warnings that immediate action is needed to stop the NHS being swamped in the north of England.

    Ministers have spent months pinning their hopes on the NHS Test and Trace system, which has cost £10bn. But the national system of call centres is failing to trace many of those at risk.

    Now they are planning to give councils more money to waste and for those councils that dream of a marxist society with their elite in power, this is a dream come true.

    It is no longer about your health or your safety from a virus, it is about control and with the NHS threatening to suspend all diagnostic tests and non-covid treatments, your health is being threatened to force you to comply with draconian powers you have never voted for.
