I’m sure in a few weeks we will discover there was already widespread domestic transmission of Omicron, in Germany. When Omicron was initially discovered, the United Kingdom promptly closed its borders to several African countries—but oddly not whiter infected countries like The Netherlands. This was of course pointless politicking, and did nothing to stop the spread of Omicron in the UK, which was already established. If only the UK had instead chosen to implement decent sick pay, or immediately ramp up the booster program, or implement work from hone guidance. Instead the UK let it rip fir three weeks, before suddenly panicking.
