"The medical groups are saying shut it down .for the sake of a few days the restrictions should be kept in place, especially if there is a danger of a full lockdown again in jan." There will surely be a lock down in new year anyway... Its just whether it's week 2 or 6... Or in usual fashion of delaying it for too long... Weeks 6 or 10. Unless they are hanging hopes on 2 weeks holiday over Xmas and new year to calm things down. Personally think the opposite will happen with the way we public are now making choices.. I was talking to a pub manager last night. She's been doing her job for 15 years. Saying that the way people are behaving this year has been crazy compared to previous 14 years. | |||

I mean there are some places who seem to have it under Control, so why lock them down. But... There was a load of stuff before last lock down that argued for a national lock down because local lockdowns weren't working... Bizarre to me as a bit of nerd and numbers watcher... They seemed to be effective in some areas where they were being enforced and adhered to and not in others..and that would be the same with local or national lockdown if people keep spreading it. | |||

I don't think he should have lifted the restrictions to that degree, but I don't think it would be fair on people to change his mind now.Listening to him on politics live, it looks like it will stand. | |||

"Before its announced what are peoples thoughts on the 5 day easing of restrictions,should he change his mind andtighten restrictions or keep it as planned?" Keep it as planned In terms of personal responsibility we've asked everyone coming for Xmas to isolate as best they can this week and next, it doesn't cancel the risk but reduces it to within our comfort! | |||

The thing is these same people would do what they want rules or no rules the majority of people know how to act by now. | |||

"Follow the scientific advice and tighten restrictions Are people not to be trusted to make calculated decisions then? you believe we need to be told? " Well you know the people you might be sharing Xmas with, can they all be trusted? Do they all feel some responsibility to each other? Those that don't I wouldn't want in my home anyway. | |||

" Unless Christmas is now no longer a religious celebration but an orgy of consumerism and the other festivals do not matter..." I think that pretty much covers it! Xmas hasn't ostensibly been a religious celebration (for the majority) for many decades! | |||

"Before its announced what are peoples thoughts on the 5 day easing of restrictions,should he change his mind andtighten restrictions or keep it as planned?" I think Boris has put himself in a bad position. Promising 3 households can mix over Christmas for 5 days will no doubt cause a rise in infections and deaths. So many people are already struggling suffering with mental health issues due to isolation that now changing his mind and scrapping the relaxing of the rules will mentally crush a hell of a lot of people and could easily increase the rates of suicide and depression. He jumped his gun way way too early by declaring the 5 days and now he's definitely between a rock and a hard place. I think he'll copy Scotland and reduce mixing to 2 households. | |||

Boris may be all the things you say. But here's the rub...we are adults, we are the ones choosing to ignore advice and spread the infection. So blame others as much as you like (and yeah I agree they have been shit...) but it's all on us... We can take simple measures to reduce the spread. And we are choosing not to (in a sizeable minority of cases). | |||
