    Yeah, the primary school don’t even have enough staff to be able to open to vulnerable/key workers. My wife and I are both teachers, so just worked out how we’ll split the week. 2 days out, 2 days in each - haven’t sorted the last day of the week yet. Maybe Johnson will come to the rescue and...

    People wouldn’t have as many issues with capitalism if it paid its way fairly.

    Constantly fiddling with the guidance to keep numbers being sent home as low as possible. Will go to shit though when we have teacher directly spreading to pupil or vice versa.

    Might have been a good idea, but then I remembered their borders are closed at the moment because their country is not run by fuckwits.
