Here we go.. Take precautions... But not in school!

Horray... Most primaries are back... Let the virus rip through and then don't worry they will close too!!

itsgettingweird · 30/12/2020 17:08

Sorry just realised that link isn't updated from December 🤦‍♀️

HarveySchlumpfenburger · 30/12/2020 17:08

Erm if we keep the schools open in some of the areas, aren’t they just going to end up in the same position as the ones that are closing schools now?

ineedaholidaynow · 30/12/2020 17:08

GabsAlot · 30/12/2020 17:08

PandemicPavolova · 30/12/2020 17:09

Is there a list in there I can't see it

namechangefail2020 · 30/12/2020 17:10

Take a shot every time someone says "list" I dare ya

itsgettingweird · 30/12/2020 17:10

Yay.

JVT. A realistic voice of reason.

Dogatetheleftovers · 30/12/2020 17:10

Will JVT give honest answers to the press questions do we think?

CurlyhairedAssassin · 30/12/2020 17:11

All those testing booths, where are they going to come from/what budget? The military brought them/put them up very efficiently. We only have D of E tents. 😆

HarveySchlumpfenburger · 30/12/2020 17:11

Is that JVT saying, it’s probably worse than the numbers we are about to show you?

SamsMumsCateracts · 30/12/2020 17:11

Sound bite, sound bite, sound bite.

Dogatetheleftovers · 30/12/2020 17:12

That’s what I thought he meant Rafals

Viviennemary · 30/12/2020 17:12

It's vaccines tomorrow. Instead of jam.

"We are going faster through a shorter tunnel," says Boris. Are we on a train?

itsgettingweird · 30/12/2020 17:12

ime for parents to refuse to send their children to school & teachers to demand action by Unions. Williamson can't be trusted to open a newspaper, & certainly not keep them safe from Covid.

Brilliant comment C and P from that Twitter post.

CurlyhairedAssassin · 30/12/2020 17:13

Or presumably we won’t need booths, seeing as we’re all lumped in with the kids anyway, just wearing a mask.

GabsAlot · 30/12/2020 17:13

london and the east doesnt look good down hereat all

You need the parents to back you up here. Some will and some won't.
itsgettingweird · 30/12/2020 17:15

It was the bit about not being trusted to open a newspaper that made me giggle 80's

HarveySchlumpfenburger · 30/12/2020 17:16

Lol at Isels of Scilly on it’s own.

JVT wants to say we’re totally fucked, doesn’t he.

GabsAlot · 30/12/2020 17:16

they should have put a full lockdown on for new years at least

MissMarpletheMurderer · 30/12/2020 17:16

Yup exactly what I thought

Plus Boris basically saying 18th school return not guaranteed
