9. Most Brexshitters are supportive of the lockdown

And often supportive of the Prime Minister to a frankly creepy degree (see the "clap for Boris" when he caught Coronavirus)

However, there is a minority of right wingers who are anti lockdown. Usually to be found in the comment pages of the Telegraph and the Spectator but not many other places. That view hasn't gained much traction as yet with people as most Tory voters are more concerned with stopping a global pandemic than fussing over libertarian ideology.

It was however only a matter of time before the anti lockdown movement came to the UK. And they may start gaining more support among more people.
