A British MP on Sunday said the UK needs an updated Public Health Act so the government can’t make decisions such as imposing lockdowns without parliamentary scrutiny.

Writing in The Telegraph, Conservative MP Steve Baker said that lockdowns and restrictions have caused “immense damage” as the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus itself did, citing food insecurity, physical and mental health implications, interruption of education, unemployment, and the huge cost of the measures.
