Wales Closes Border With England, Stranded Motorists on Severn Bridge? Covid-19 Police Road Blocks

Politics / Pandemic Oct 19, 2020 - 12:58 PM GMT

Politics

So wales has started to close it's borders to England, that inevitably is going to leave , many motorists stranded in long lines of traffic on the likes of the Prince Wales Severn Bridge as Welsh police put up road blocks across the main crossing points from England into Wales. The Welsh nationalists finally have their centuries old dream come true one of separation of sorts from England with all of Wales border crossings CLOSED, under the guise of combating the spread of covid-19 as iterated by increasingly austere statements from Welsh First Minister Mark Drakeford aimed at preventing people from England crossing into Wales, especially in the run up to the now extended half term holidays..

Is this really all about covid or part of a grand scheme for a move towards an Independence referendum of sorts following England's decision to implement Brexit?

Where covid is concerned from what I can see Wales has a far higher incidence of covid-19 than England, so maybe the travel restrictions should be in the other direction. Though I am sure if that were ever to happen then the welsh nationalists would also use that to their political advantage.


Lets find out what it's currently like to cross the mile long Severn Bridge? Are we going to get blocked from crossing, as we venture into Wales for some views of the bridge for likely the last time for the remainder of this year as Wales becomes a no go zone for visitors from England.
