Matt Hancock suggested to an aide that they "frighten the pants off everyone", messages published by the Sunday Telegraph show.
It appears the former health secretary discussed when to reveal the existence of the Kent variant of Covid, to ensure people comply with lockdown rules.
In another exchange, the head of the Civil Service, Simon Case, suggested the "fear/guilt factor" was vital to the government's messaging.
The BBC has not verified the messages.
More than 100,000 WhatsApp messages were leaked to the Telegraph by the journalist Isabel Oakeshott, who has been a vocal critic of lockdowns.
The former health secretary has repeatedly criticised the leaks, referring to the published messages as a "partial, biased account to suit an anti-lockdown agenda."
In an exchange between Mr Hancock and an aide from 13th December 2020 - five days before the government scrapped plans to relax rules for many over Christmas - the former health secretary discusses when to "deploy" the announcement of the new variant.
They are talking about the possibility of the London Mayor Sadiq Khan resisting a possible lockdown for London.
The Department of Health adviser suggests: "Rather than doing too much forward signalling, we can roll pitch with the new strain."
Mr Hancock says: "We frighten the pants of everyone with the new strain."
The adviser responds: "Yep, that's what will get proper behaviour change."
The minister then asks: "When do we deploy the new variant."
Mr Hancock announced the new variant the following day.
In a separate WhatsApp conversation from January 2021, when lockdown measures were in place, Mr Hancock is seen discussing possible changes with Simon Case.
Mr Case warns against making small changes to the rules as looking "ridiculous". He talks about "ramping up messaging" adding the "fear/guilt factor" was "vital". da."

Oh boy! If you did not hit the nail directly on the head!!
There’s a certain segment of any population that are afraid of their own shadow, and that’s what this stupid crap is all about.
The limeys have been rancid for quite a while. That being said, a similar program, "Project Blue Beam" to frighten the populace with a staged UFO invasion is currently under way here in the good ol' USA.
They told you in the article. When do we deploy the new variant. Just like the first covid 19… this was designed and released. Obama defunded hyperviralization in the US as too dangerous… hyperviralization is just old term for gain of function. This is why it’s a plandemic.
I absolutely hated the masks! When we went into town and had to wear a mask to shop, the next 2-3 days I would have sinus problems and tickly throat. After awhile, I said to heck with it and stopped wearing one on my face, I would wear it on my chin. No one said anything to me about it.
Covid also revealed the strong current of hypochondriacal cowardice on the part of people, of every ideological stripe, who have no real desire to be free but only a strong desire to be -- or, rather, feel -- safe.
A few such people even post to this forum.
The British Brainwashing Corporation (as the brits call it) is minimizing is glossing over much of what’s been revealed. The best coverage seems to be from the UK Telegraph. (It’s well worth signing up for their 30 days free offer in order to get behind the subscription paywall. The comments sections are better than the articles.)

Makes you wonder; does Delta exist? Omicron?
Saw someone on twitter wondering if covid itself exists.
(on our American side of the pond)
Remember, in the Project Veritas undercover video the Pfizer executive admitted they were manufacturing Covid variants. These are crimes against humanity.
No surprise here! They deliberately and intentionally picked names that would scare the ignorant public.
Covid is over but there will be something to replace it beginning in 2024, January, when the main thing on their minds will be the election and the need to generate a “crisis” like they did in 2020 so they can squash Trump and DeSantis.
Me thinks this time around that the public will tell those shutting us down “bugger off”, and will avoid going to any bus issues that try to enforce the rules.
One of those 2 likely existed, as our family got it. During that time the covid 19 “proper” was long gone, and the flu “was not around” according to the media. Whatever we got, it was nasty. Not the worst I’ve ever had, but still very unpleasant.
What we need are whistle-blowers within Pfizer to come put and expose the whole rotten core, the have trials based on the whistle-blowers testimonies and other evidence after a thorough investigation.
I’m not holding. My breath though- there is a whistle-blower that stepped forward, but nor sure how much she knew about ehat was going on in Pfizer, and Pfizer Will likely shred her testimony if she doesnt have good solid proof, but if enough came forward, with enough proof, pfizer wouldn’t have as much of a chance to villify all of them
Go to any business that tries to enforce the rules I meant.
David Icke has been on that theory from the start. We know it at least exists in silica and as a synthetic, spike-only version.
Beyond that, there is enough fishy to doubt that it actually ever spread as anything approaching a pandemic.
Yeah we had one or the other. The transition from Delta to Omicron was supposed to be happening here at the time and was definitely different than a cold or flu. No worse for us than a bad case of the flu but different.
After the past several years, especially the past few years, it’s just hard to know what to believe.
‘Lockdowns’ (like other pointlessly severe mandates) are the gateway drug to the long-held, Liberals’ totalitarian objective. I’m convinced that the pandemic was a manufactured crisis, introduced as the surrogate for some other naturally occurring, unavoidable social/political/economic catastrophe which had failed to present itself.
It’s sort of like the 2008 financial anomaly intentionally set in motion for the advantage of “O’Bozo”.
Scamdemic from the start. Yet here we are about to vote for the same person for President again.
