    It wasn’t restricted though was it? People could still enter or leave the country restriction free.... just make some bullshit excuse up. We weren’t even doing basics like temperature checks at Arrivals.....

    We’re not talking about instantly - this could happen happened in March, April even going into May.... but no - our arrogant shitshow of a government thought they knew better.

    How much of the Aus and NZ economy relies on tourism? Yet they made the right decision in curtailing travel. Who cares if we are a hub for travel - the government had a choice to make, and like with everything they abscond from any kind of responsibility.

    Sorry I’m confused - are you saying we’ve responded in the same way as countries like Aus and NZ?

    Well could compare infection rates and deaths proportionately All 3 of us are islands. They got control of it pretty well, which included some very sensible restrictions in terms of people coming to and from the country. Our response was and continues to be a fucking shambles. Only the USA...

    You are absolutely spot on - what I would say that from a safeguarding/welfare point of view that a lot of schools that have cohorts like this (mine is one of them) are putting on additional things that they can do to mitigate this. We’ve been buying food parcels for vulnerable and FSM kids to...

    At this moment in time schools are the biggest source of infection rates - especially Secondary. Anyone saying that is not true is deluded. 1000 kids missing freely in bubbles of 200+ a time, the mixing as a whole before and after school and all through the evenings and weekends. Nothing will...

    It’s always the way they give their guidance. For example ‘international travel should be avoided unless necessary’ What comes under necessary? For some people they will take ‘necessary’ as ‘I’ve paid for this holiday, it’s necessary that I go’. You basically allow people to individually...

    Testing in schools

    They pulled back their funding on this beginning of November. Never even met their first target... not even close.

    Testing in schools

    From a basic time and logistical perspective what they want delivered is impossible. They did mass testing in Liverpool and it had to be run by the Army. Having had the displeasure of meeting this inept knobjockey on more than one occasion, it doesn’t surprise this kind of nonsense coming from...
