That children under 5 shouldn't count as a guest for a wedding?

[WithLotsOfSprinkles0]

The government have announced that children under 5 dont longer count as a person to stop isolation.

Parent and child groups can continue where they provide support to parent and/or child, and children under 5 will not be counted within the 15 person limit - meaning parents and carers can attend such groups in larger numbers.

Surely then this would mean children under 5 shouldn't be counted as a guest at a wedding of 15 guests?

And who has a child under 5? Oh the Prime Minister.

It makes perfect sense. They are trying to build in some flexibilities so new mums are not completely isolated. Cases of PND went up a lot during lockdown and unfortunately so did cases where children were injured in the home.

A wedding is a completely different entity. I do feel for people who have had to cancel or alter their plans but it is quite rightly being treated differently.

Nothing like a wilfully obtuse OP, is there?
