Aito chair Chris Rowles,put it succinctly at a recent Aito meeting when he bluntly commented that, above all, he hated being lied to by the government: lied to about wanting to open international travel; lied to about their actions being determined by the science rather than politics; and lied to about "following the data".
Or this, from an Aito member: "The government’s actions have been a muddle of complex, nonsensical, panic-driven and ill-considered measures, all off-putting to hopeful would-be travellers."
