| Comment | I didn't mean necessarily a closed border in the true sense, but police at the border checking if people travelling north are doing so with appropriate cause - for example, right now, people in Scotland are not allowed to travel more than 5 miles for leisure, with no such restriction on people in England. If too many English folk were travelling north to go on holiday/walk in the hills etc, presumably Police Scotland would be empowered to turn them back at the border?
Not that I genuinely think that will happen, I'm just imagining a case with a more extreme difference than now, where English holidaymakers could genuinely undermine a conservative Scottish lockdown strategy. |
