Peston:
PM will be directly addressing the nation. It won’t be a press conference. Tier 4 restrictions will be imposed everywhere. Schools closed. No more team games in parks. But outdoor exercise will still be allowed.

Well worth reopening schools and causing the massive amount of work involved in that, let alone all the stress to teachers and parents for... one, maybe two days.
A lot of the schools near me saw this coming a mile off and declared Monday and Tuesday TD Days...

We’d already decided to say our daughter was unable to go in this week, seems like now we won’t need to make the call

Schools should shut.
This new variant affects children more than the last one.
I am telling you, things will get worse before getting better.

Or actually planned for before Christmas when Fuckwit Williamson was suing schools to force them to stay open. Then they could have used the time to think up ways to actually make schools safer other than just asserting it |

This has been disproven. |

Source? Not disputing, just interested. the heat map suggests it. but you have to be careful they haven't just started testing more children. or it's showing more in children now because schools are open this time, etc. https://coronavirus.data.gov.uk/details/cases?areaType=ltla&areaName=Swindonthe new variant does transmit more readily, so I guess everyone could be worse effected |

So it isn't just numbers of tests being done, there are proportionately more school age children testing positive, according to ONS stats. Set against that, the affects are still worse in the old: "Even though more young people have been infected, hospital admissions and deaths involving the coronavirus (COVID-19) are highest among those aged over 65 years." https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/healthandsocialcare/conditionsanddiseases/articles/coronaviruscovid19weeklyinsights/latesthealthindicatorsinengland18december2020#age-differences |

Is it actually proven, the only references I can see are from anti lockdown nut jobs and Guido Fawkes at the moment groups he has tended to piss off recently? Not making any excuses for the prick, but FWIW as at least Heathrow (and Gatwick?) have been in Tier 4 for all the Christmas period isn't anyone who has flown out of there on non-essential travel equally liable? I see even now whilst making a much fuss about fearing the South African variant, we are still not testing people as they come back |

If true he is going to get crucified. Didn't that Katie Hopkins wannabe Julia Hartley-Brewers Droop also fuck off to somewhere similar over Christmas? |

Yes and gloated that she had "got out" the day before whichever set of restrictions it was that would have prevented her from doing so. Then spent the rest of Christmas berating scientists and the NHS from the pool side at her luxury hotel |
