    What shocks me is the speed at which this stuff happens. Your mate's a tory minister and you own a business doing something random like making jewellery or pest control and within a few weeks of the pandemic you have a contract for millions to supply healthcare products.
    Like their absolute first thought when they hear about the pandemic is how to make some money out of this, or how to help their friends make money.

    Remember right at the start of the pandemic when that company Rees-Mogg is associated with talked about how the virus was a money making opportunity?

    The Licensing rules up to Xmas are being reviewed. No changes expected. So I presume Xsnaggle was right we are not in the tier system yet.

    There were zero cases in my daughter's school too... until this week. Now two kids have had confirmed positive tests which has meant two separate year groups worth of children (including my daughter) are having to self-isolate until Boxing Day. She can't leave the house for 10 days because she potentially came into contact with the other child.

    It's going to be f**king nightmare not even being able to take her outside for some fresh air and exercise for 10 whole days.

    In terms of your child's school being closed... it's better to be preventative than to act after the fact, don't you think? All it takes is one positive test and it will effect you personally.

    Yeah I’m all for it along with being strict at Christmas, because we will all suffer when the numbers rise after it. Is your daughter primary or high school?

    Love the way they’ve also waited until schools out for Christmas to announce they are having an extended holiday also.

    Not impressed with my kids school at all.
    The teachers have basically engineered a situation where they can have home schooling for the last week so that none of them have to isolate over christmas, but the last week of school has been a complete joke.
    the teachers basically printed off a couple of xmas themed wordsearches and colouring in sheets and let them get on with it - both my kids 3 school years apart got given the same sheets.
    They basically couldn't be arsed for the last week, and now they'll have a longer Christmas break as well.

    Not ideal for a seventeen-year-old, I grant you.

    Getting a lot of that chatter around the family about teachers and not being impressed some of the homework set etc , good jobs the shop assistants,health workers, police , fireman, paramedics , postal workers, truck drivers etc didn't apply the same .

    I get the fact there are risks however they can bubble , the folk I mentioned are out and about coming into contact with millions of different people daily, big thanks to them all I say .

    Like everything else I'm sure there is some politics on there somewhere , not all but some .

    To be fair to the teachers, they don’t normally do much curriculum based work in the last week before Christmas. What’s worse is to pretend they do and send a load of work home for the kids to do with their parents, which mine have had. Luckily my two love doing it so I set them up and they crack on. It must be a nightmare for some, as will the first week back when they are home again and parents are in work

    The only difference with a normal Christmas is that this year, you see what kids do in the last week. It's always been the same. I used to go to the last day, but the last week had no lessons ever.

    My girlfriend's kid goes to private school and they certainly didn't stop working until the end of term. Absolutely no reason for them to basically down tools for the last week, I think it's disgusting.
    If they had covered the syllabus already then they could have spent a week going back over things or anything.
    They just couldn't be bothered,
