Make Children under 12 exempt from rule of 6 covid 19 restrictions in England.
We are asking parliament to review the guidance on the Rule of 6 covid 19 restrictions, to exclude children aged 12 or under from the restrictions, as is the case in Scotland
Why is it that a family of 6 cannot meet with another person/ persons if their children can mix at school with a full year group 5 days a week, or mix with other individuals within team sport.
If children are indeed scientifically shown to be less likely to spread or suffer with covid 19 then they should be removed from the rule of 6 restrictions, thus allowing family's to meet and offer support to loved ones in this difficult time.
