UK’s Christmas plans in tatters with harsh new lockdown for 18 million people - BBC News

In a dramatic change of policy, millions of people across England have been placed under a new tougher tier of coronavirus restrictions, meaning families will not be able to mix at all this Christmas.
Boris Johnson made the announcement after scientists said a mutation of Covid-19 was spreading rapidly in London, the south east and east of England.
The variant is said to be much more contagious, but doesn't appear to cause more serious illness.
From midnight tonight, new Tier 4 restrictions come into force, affecting all current Tier 3 areas, in London, the South East and east of England.
The public is being asked to stay at home and there will be no so called “Christmas bubbles” for gatherings. Social get-togethers will be restricted to meeting one other person in an open public space. Non-essential shops will close, as well as gyms, beauty salons and hairdressers.
For those living in Tiers 1 to 3 in England, “Christmas bubble” gatherings can now only take place on Christmas Day. The original plan was for 5 days.
Meanwhile all of Wales is entering a new lockdown with the restrictions only eased for Christmas Day, and
Scotland is also only relaxing its rules on Christmas Day, with the highest level of restrictions coming into force for the whole country on Boxing Day.
Northern Ireland has already announced a new national lockdown from Boxing Day.

Just out of interest would you enter a locked room with 98 other people and a gun wielding terrorist with 3 bullets (that won’t miss) and calmly let them shoot into the group? That’s a 99% survival rate (gun shot wounds have a 33% fatality rate that’s why they have 3 bullets in case you’re wondering). Remember, you can’t take any actions if your going for herd immunity: if you want to restrain the terrorist that’s lockdowns and quarantines, if you want to hand out bulletproof vests that’s masks and other PPE, if want to switch the bullets for blanks that’s vaccines. I’m not arguing for or against anything, merely checking for consistency.

[@Monztxr]

@@Miners666 are you joking? That scenario is simply incomparable. The flu has a worse survival rate but do you stay in your house over winter? Road accidents are increasingly common nowadays with the amount of cars on the roads. A small percentage of them will be fatal, does that stop you from using transport? I could go on and on. I’ve had Covid. I’m type 1 diabetic, classed as overweight (mainly muscle mass from the gym) and it was exactly the same as having a common cold.

The main issues with the government aren’t the rules they’ve given the public to follow (although those have been pretty awfully thought out), but more the constant U-turns. At this point, you might as well expect the opposite to anything they say. Why tell the country that we can travel and mix for the Christmas period and then cancel everything they’ve said in the days running up to Christmas itself, by which point people have made their plans, arranged their travel, likely bought most of their food and presents and prepared their houses? People want clarity and logical restrictions. This country wouldn’t be in the situation it’s in now if it weren’t for the governments terrible management of the spread earlier on.

[@Beckface26]

Exactly. SO many U-turns. We all have to adapt as the situation develops, but why on Earth did the Government announce the relaxation in rules for Christmas so far in advance (and even just 72 hours ago when they knew there was a new strain and that the numbers were rising), only to pull the rug out from under everyone? I'm fortunate that I had made no plans to be affected, but millions of people and businesses (e.g. coach companies putting on extra services) planned in advance (as advised), and now have very little time to plan a suitable alternative. They should have ripped the bandaid off sooner and said, "We don't know whether Christmas will go ahead", instead of making promises they couldn't keep.

The government never surprises me. I'm more worried at how many people go along with these totalitarian measures without even questioning. I will not be changing my plans at all.

Hi Mel 🎄🎄 How're you doing

[@drd6416]

But if you look elsewhere, it's all the same too. That proves it's not about a virus and never has been.

Any young person considering their options should seriously think about leaving when they can. Hard working young people would be an asset to this country. But there has to be a reason to stay.

We’ll get through Brexit together

It's just here mate, Nearly every country in Europe and beyond are in the same boat.

They're expecting neighbours to grass each other up. These scumbags know no bounds.

Wrong title, should been: "Christmas plans in tatters, thanks to tyrant prime minister, who waited for parliament to go on Christmas holiday, before calling a lockdown."
