Mixed messages for political leaders from election bellwether town of Swindon

Voters in the town’s two key constituencies seem unimpressed by either party as conference season continues

Town centre shop and cafe owners notice busier streets since Freedom Day - and customers prefer wearing masks

ALMOST all pandemic-related restrictions have now eased, but has this made a noticeable difference to Swindon’s town centre? While wandering around on Saturday, our roving reporter noticed several shops still encouraging customers to don a face covering and self-isolate, though these rules are no longer legally enforced. Inside supermarkets like the Tesco Metro on The Parade, there was an even 50/50 split between those with a mask and those without. Inside the Brunel Shopping Centre, it was more 70/30, leaning more towards mask-wearers, while outside in the open air there were around one in 10 people wearing a mask. Navigating the town centre’s streets proved fairly easy, though any caution about keeping at a distance seems to have gone. On a couple of occasions, there was someone almost brushing right up against me to get past with no regard for personal space, let alone the former two-metre rule.
