Does anyone else think that the concept of saving Christmas is flawed. Personally I'm disgusted at the idea that we could have a long lockdown to pay for super spreader Christmas.
I understand that Christmas is important to people, but it is just an annual event/religious festival. It will still go ahead but differently.
Does it really matter if the majority just spend it in their own homes? Unless there are particularly circumstances, I don't understand the over emotional reaction to Christmas, that people wouldn't feel anyway. I'm upset at not seeing my family, not just because it's Christmas.
We all know that there is a potentially nasty virus going round, meeting indoors at Christmas is ideal spreading situation.
Surely unless there are exceptional circumstances, for example a poster on another thread with a terminally ill relative, we can just have Christmas in our own homes.
If Christmas is to be saved, it shouldn't be at the cost of everything else come January.
