Just seems like another disaster waiting to happen once again. High infection rates and allowing 4 families to mix indoors, putting the elderly at risk when they may have a vaccine a few weeks after christmas, why on earth would anyone think this is a good idea. People have made sacrifices on an unprecedented scale over the last 9 months, why throw that away for the sake of waiting a few weeks for some
Because people are going to do it anyway so it's reverse pyshcology. Here have these days and we'll go back to restrictions straight after.
And reading the reports on what the new 3 tiered system will be, then hopefully cases will continue dropping anyway as their are still restrictions in place.
Final point I'd make is that there are an awful lot of lonely people suffering mentally for the past 8 months that the thought of seeing their closest family (safely) for just a few days at Xmas , maybe the only thing keeping them on this earth.
