    You need to lay off the click-bait. This is straight out of the Trump appreciation Facebook page. Is it because the Chinese are raging lefties?

    Again - you using that word safe. Where is the evidence to justify that?? Just one piece would be a start.

    George Floyd

    With people like Trump in charge they feel empowered. The Brexit vote did something similar here in the UK albeit not on the same scale - (it also took away from people that wanted to leave the EU but were not of this nature)

    I don’t have much choice as we have to shield my daughter as she has an anti-body irregularity that affects her immune system. She’s in Y7 and my son is in Y4 so they weren’t part of the initial phase anyway. That aside there is no way I would have sent them into school at this juncture. I worry...

    George Floyd

    Institutional racism is ingrained in American society (and lots of other places) - now they have a leader that makes these people feel empowered so it re-emerges even more than before.

    But we do not have a plan. All we have is a series of knee jerk reactions from the government as they feel pressure from ‘interested parties’ The last 2 weeks have been a disorganised shambles - even you are acknowledging it with the schools, the track and trace and then Cummings.

    If we’re not already living in an episode of Black Mirror then we’re pretty close.

    I see what you are saying - my concern is that a lot of parents won’t send their kids in regardless for a number of reasons - safety being the primary one but also needing to supervise younger siblings that are not back at school. I think we run the risk of having even larger gaps in learning...

    If we were any where near remotely competent in dealing with this crisis then people would probably feel most assured and less likely to be up in arms about any suggested easing. Suggestions like yours would be part of a clear, thought out and coherent plan (see NZ for example) These changes...

    You can be as optimistic as you like mate - it won’t make a fucking difference. You should be able to go back to some kind of normality (as should we all) but you also have a right to not have your health and that of your family put at risk due to his incompetence and inability to govern and...
