Those same people are hounding me for work for their kids which those same kids aren’t bothering to do.
Just seen the headteacher's letter to parents.It is likely to be a partial or full closure
Gimps. Love the people who moan about the schools expecting them to bring their kids up for them.
just being reading about Iran. Government says if people strictly follow government guidelines they predict 12,000 deaths.
If they ignore government advice it could be as high as 3.5 million. Lots of people ignoring the advice because they government has closed places of worship and mobs are breaking into them to pray.
Puts clearing the supermarkets out of bog roll and pasta in to perspective.
just idiots. Islam has plenty of caveats of how and when you pray. Basically anywhere as long as you're facing in the right direction.That's a big problem when you've got countries which are highly religious. You can use all the science and expertise you want, but all they'll think is "pray to God and all will be fine".
Then when they have far worse death tolls it'll be because closing the places of worship angered God and this is his retribution, rather than "we all crammed into small spaces so I wonder why we had a high rate of infection over a short period?"
Never ask why those countries that aren't religious or follow a completely different God got of more lightly and God didn't smite them worse.

I agree mate, I don’t get it (there must be some reasoning behind it as it’s not intuitive in conjunction with the current wider strategy)
All I’m guessing (as Tony has indicated) once you do close them I’d imagine they won’t reopen for a long time
Must be about time people like Piers Morgan and Collymore are shut down.
Looks like Collymore is going around supermarkets to see what people are getting. He has such an issue about it being spread though.
You have Piers Morgan and the Accrington owner saying that they can't go to the pub but the kids go to school. They can go to the pub still as far as I know.

Scotland & Wales announce school closures from Friday.
Now its announced, I bet attendance in those nations will be less than 25% tomorrow anyhow.
Interesting that they both announce just before the Cobra meeting that will surely announce the same plan...
...I suppose it depends on your political bias as to whether you see that as a deliberate act to undermine govt. "leadership" or 2 devolved powers sick of waiting for the "leadership" to announce the inevitable....
Only after he was forced to

It’s all very reactive from the government isn’t it. I see they’re now looking at testing health workers after a few went on line to point out that they’re now self isolating for two weeks when if they were tested and given the all clear they could be back at work in a couple of days helping the already under pressure NHS service cope with this. Flabbergasting that this needs to be explained to the government from online activity of NHS staff self isolating. Where’s the leadership.Only after he was forced to
Didn’t expect that....No exams in May and June, but the government will ensure that children get the qualifications they need. No explanation how
Voucher scheme to be introduced so kids who rely on free school meals will still get fed.
I would assume they will use predictive grades /course work completed as a guideDidn’t expect that....
Just give everyone A* to continue the trend that has been adopted in recent years??I would assume they will use predictive grades /course work completed as a guide

Or it could staff shortages are making it unsafe to keep schools openTo go that far that quickly makes me think we’re heading for a FULL lockdown very very soon.
I'm not sure what else can be done, other than enforcement.To go that far that quickly makes me think we’re heading for a FULL lockdown very very soon.
Wouldn’t be at all surprised if that happens on Friday too ,To go that far that quickly makes me think we’re heading for a FULL lockdown very very soon.

I guess stopping public transport is one additional measureI'm not sure what else can be done, other than enforcement.
