Surely if they’re closing primary schools in one Tier 4 area then they have to close in all Tier 4 areas?!

Every rep should have had an email moments ago about a national update meeting tomorrow:
In light of the growing crisis, the National Education Union (NEU) has called an emergency meeting of our union’s executive, which will take place tomorrow.

Immediately after the executive, we will be holding a Zoom call for our reps and branch secretaries to explain the decisions we have taken.

The Zoom call for reps and branch secretaries will be held on Saturday, 2 January, from 12-1pm, with joint general secretaries Mary Bousted and Kevin Courtney, chaired by NEU president Robin Bevan.

You can register for the call by clicking here.

This is why this country is in such a shit state, these idiots are useless when deciding on anything constantly going back on things that are plain to see. Shut the schools for a few weeks that’s a month off others it’s going to go through the roof.
 
Might already have been mentioned, apologies if so only scrolled back a couple of pages.

Dr Fauci has confirmed that America won't be following the UK in using the initially proposed 2nd dose to vaccinate more people sooner. They'll be running with the initial plan based on the data and evidence they have available to them and running with the 2nd dose within the 21 day period.

Actually saw the perfect reply to this which kind of sums it up:

"I'd rather get 2 doses than 1,but I'd rather get 1 dose than zero"

Really hope this pays off with what we're doing.
 
Do we have enough vaccine close the country down again and start calling people forward to be vaccinated, open up football stadiums to get people in, 55000 at the Ethiad in a day would be done, do that round the country and you are halfway there. No vaccine you don’t travel abroad, let’s see all these twats refuse it then
 
Is tier 4 meant to be as strict as the first national lockdown ?

I guess it isnt as supermarkets are allowed to sell everything from food to clothes and electronics etc.

This is unfair on other retailers and just forces more people into supermarkets, if other shops were open than people wouldnt over crowd supermarkets for clothes and irons etc ;). But I guess the supermarkets fund the tory party so the government keeps the other shops like premark, currys etc closed while the supermarket can sell everything.

Surely if the government only want people in tier 4 to only go out for food, medicine or work make supermarkets only sell food. It's not rocket science !

It’s purely political. Trying to score educational points. I was delighted to see the pupils return in September but the numbers now mean we must change tack and close. And not some two bob day by day thing. Shut. Everywhere. The deleterious effect of missing school can, over time, be rectified. It will be nothing compared to the illness and deaths if they stay open. The data has changed dramatically. So now, should the policy.
