Confusion Clouds New SOPs

As cases remain high, there is no disputing that movement restrictions are necessary - but could things have been done better? Laurence Todd, Director of Research and Development at IDEAS, gives us his thoughts on government communication strategies, the long term economic effect of Covid-19 restrictions, and what he would like to see in Budget 2021.
