Open parliment and house of commons before opening schools
Government needs to practice what it preaches, children are getting sick. Putting even one child at risk while politicians hide in their homes is not leadership it's cowardice. Teachers/parents will tell you keeping children apart is a ridiculous task and this has not been thought through at all.
Lead!! It's that simple, using our children as guinea pigs in a failed experiment is going to be the most unforgivable mistake you ever make. Go back to the house of commons, open parliment put yourselves at risk then open schools. You should lead and lead by example after all it's what we pay you to do. We are tired of you hiding behind the people you serve, walk out first into this war. Be a government who leads rather than risk our very future.
