More importantly, where are people supposed to get a supply of masks from, which are now required for enclosed spaces ??
Masks will be harder to get hold of than toilet rolls and pasta were a few weeks ago and remebering that some idiots will be stock piling the bloody things, there could be serious consequances for some of the people / services that really need them.

Just have a look on Amazon you can buy 50 for £21 - suggest you use a bit of initiative or do you want the state to sort that for you - perhaps they can also tell you how to wear them and for how long!! You lot really are a joke

You do seem to be ignoring the fact that teachers themselves dont feel comfortable teaching kids, who may or may not be carrying the virus and that's before we get to the logistics of getting the kids to school, parents working but, with no childcare (either official or through family members).

Assuming that there can be a restart and on the basis that class sizes have to shrink to make allowance for social distancing, maybe the "start up" could be kids going in every other week, which, although a reduction in teaching, this could be supplemented with some home tutoring and "on line" lessons.

It doesn't help that, after such a long period of Tory rule, class sizes have grown and most classes are "bulging" with pupils.

Within the private education system, I'm sure that the start up will be simpler and quicker to get going but, perhaps we shouldn't go there

I ask you once again - can we realistically start education without a vaccine - especially as teachers are scared of actually teaching!!

Given the teachers unions don't want them to teach outside of the school - no Zoom going on here!! and have suggested they shouldn't have to mark work despite getting full pay how does you bi weekly attending school actually work?

Increasing population gives increased class sizes - given the make up of the population increase

One of the many benefits of doing without to send your kids to private school - you get a different level of commitment from those taking your money

Once again, you spectacularly miss the point.
Personally, I've been around long enough to look after myself, thanks but, we already have idiots who dont keep their 2 metres or have any respect for social distancing etc and if EVERYONE is required to wear a face mask / cover their face in certain public spaces, where are the masks going to come from.
Should I bulk buy as many as I can, like you and your ilk probably did with the toilet rolls etc

Yes, if we all just "Stay Alert" that will help.

All news outlets reporting a large increase in road traffic and public transport traffic etc this morning.

Wonder if they remembered to wear face masks as per the briefing some 20hours later by the government.
Oh oh, that was a bit late wasnt it

Maybe they should have released all the details before urging everyone to get back to work?

I actually thought the traffic was less - seldom use public transport so I can't comment. Was it compulsory to wear masks - any different from the previous week. Again are the population incapable of behaving normally without the Government holding their hand?

You lefties really do want the state to control your lives - are you incapable of staying staff all by yourself - you should be embarrassed, I would be. It would be funny if it weren't so tragic. Maybe the slogan should be "Grow up and Grow some"

I can 100% guarantee you that the vast majority of morons who'll not follow the guidelines will be Conservative voters .

It's the ingrained exceptionalism.

The two metres also has another element doesn't it? Time spent in contact!!

There will never be a case where we all have masks - I would suggest it is you that is missing the point - the benefits are so infinitesimal that its simply a confidence giver for those who simply don't have the bravery to live a normal life.

Given that most of the morons who don't follow the rules are young who mostly vote Labour I suggest your views are without either substance or validity.

I suppose the Tory voters like to have some input into their life - they don't need the control of the state like you lefties.

Re: PM in Intensive Care... : Mon May 11, 2020 7:47 pm  

Everyone has been asking the Government to treat us as adults - as soon as they do everyone cries - you can't have it both ways?

Re: PM in Intensive Care... : Mon May 11, 2020 8:07 pm  

Sal I think you've got them in your back pocket.

They will want rid of roundabouts soon replaced by traffic lights so the Government can do the thinking for them.

Pathetic lefties.

Once again not a single coherent point made.
No surprise
