Back to school

This morning, the Sunday Express, The Sunday Torygraph, The Sunday Mail and trill with the Government line that it is safe to send your children back to school.

Though, there is one or two problems with that:

1. There is not enough room, staff or facilities to allow social distancing.

2. Even if that is true, is it safe for teachers to go back?

3. Israel unlocked with undue haste, and spikes in cases were linked directly to the school reopening program.

4. The word of Chris Witty and other senior health professionals has been forever tainted with being mute when the Government claiming to have followed the science whilst it since emerged that the "science" told the Government to lock down two weeks earlier. That cost 20,000 lives, but hey.

5. Studies have shown that the older children/pupils are, the more like adults transmissions rates are. And a child with the virus can carry that back to the family home and spread it to everyone, like every parent knows.

But, certainly, trust this cabal of liars that returning to school is safe.

I know what I'd do.
