If folk can afford private health care etc, good luck to them- frees up room for the rest of us. So it won't be possible that any of his entourage could possibly spread the virus? Whether that be taking it in or bringing it out? They won't have families that it could be spread to/by? That could pass it on to us mere plebs? Not to mention the fact he's travelled 200 miles to get there! If it applies to us it should apply to them, end of, I despair, I really do!

The legislation does allow people to visit ill relative in hospital so he isn't breaking the law. The unfairness is that different hospitals adopt different policies.

For me, it’s no longer an option to have kids learning at home. Infections will rise a bit for sure, but it’s the one risk we must take. Its not like the pubs are opening on the 8th, we’re still massively restricted Schools need to go back on the 8th. Engagement is dropping and kids are now at serious risk both mentally and academically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmjhb Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Right, but they're opening for 2 weeks then closing again for another 2 for Easter. Not the best timing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 2 weeks is better than the current set up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escobarp Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 It’s actually quite clever. Same as if you’re off work long term they try and bring you back phased almost part time. This gives the kids two weeks to get back let off the energy and mischief that’s been building up and see there mates again etc. and then Easter and then heads down for the rest of the academic year hopefully. I do believe that summer holidays should be cut short this year for them though personally but teachers are contractually due them so it won’t happen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Tom's family were with him for his last days. There won't have been an entourage going to see Phil the Greek neither. Just his son.
