New lockdown measures give rise to concerns for people's mental health

The Leader of the Welsh Conservatives in the Welsh Parliament, Paul Davies, has voiced his serious concerns for people’s mental health being impacted during the Welsh Labour-led Government’s Wales-wide lockdown.

He said:

We know that the previous lockdown had a profound impact on people’s mental health, so during these next two weeks the Welsh Labour-led Government has a moral duty to do everything within its remit to prevent a repeat of last time.

Many people rely on certain venues—especially gyms—to help them keep fit and maintain positive mental health, but these crucial sites have been deemed “non-essential” and thus have closed. Reports of deeply troubling scenes of many items in supermarkets being unable to be sold – due to them being deemed “non-essential” - are also causing anxiety.

I am deeply disappointed by this move and am seriously concerned the next two weeks will take its toll on many people’s mental health and well-being. 

Ultimately, it should never have come to this. Had the Welsh Labour-led Government chosen to be transparent and published crucial data they would have realised its move is totally disproportionate.
