yeah nationwide
it will be very interesting to see what happens in relation to exams this year. whilst in my eyes it would be incredibly stupid to expect students to still partake in assessments in the same manner under the conditions i wouldnt put it past the government.

ok well see the 5th word in my earlier response
Seems obvious it's been coming.
I can see it happening, the media has shifted towards talking about it more and more lately.

And the subtle signs from the PM are also indicative of him considering one.

i agree
Not the end of the world.
Yeah, most probably.

The peak of the flu season is usually around January and February. With Covid-19 around and the general worsening of health conditions over this period, there may be more deaths this winter. Therefore, we are most probably in for another national lockdown.
No, no and no. The idea of flu being a problem is stupid, australia has had its best ever flu season in terms of they had such ridiculously low levels, as did all of the southern hemisphere. This is likely as a result of social distancing. Secondly, the country would be bankrupted, most businesses that haven't already failed would, as the government couldn't afford to bail them out, people wouldn't accept it and would probably revolt, I know I would, people would protest, mental health issues would skyrocket, parents would be angry about their kids missing school, the government would have to admit they failed, and overall, no one would have it. So I think we will see measures like the ones just introduced I can see them banning socialising at least for a period but a full lockdown is really, really unlikely. Israel is the only country to have done it and their first wave wasn't even bad. France is seeing tens of thousands of cases and rightly or wrongly, are continuing as normal, or as normal can be expected under these circumstances
It's just one of those things you need to deal with, none of us can do anything about it.
maybe if the cases are rising and bojo is being a dimwit
It's felt obvious to me anyway, and i've said so several times,i'm undecided on whether it's a good plan, but we're doing it.

Just feels the same as the other Brexit logic "We CANT have an Irish hard border!" "Well we're GOING TO" "You can't tell every lorry to park in Kent!" "But we're GOING TO" ect ect.
They won't shut schools again but restaurants, pubs etc I think they will close

More likely to stop us seeing our family than to clos hospitality.
