The masses are not where politics happens, imo. It's the middle class, specifically the highly educated professional class, that influences and or leaves vacant, power.
The educated, guardian reading, smug little twats wanted things shut down, because they are deathly afraid of risk, far too comfortable with life as it is, to challenge the political system if it goes wrong and sufficiently insulated from the economic and personal tragedies of lockdowns, to carry on virtue signalling for months on end.
Boris was always a twat looking to please his social peers and, once the snooty media ripped into "herd immunity", he folded and went completely in the other direction.
