People going to NI don't have to quarantine in Dublin and NI doesn't have quarantine, of course, that might stop the virus.

As for enforcement, I suggest they should require a €1000 deposit for non citizens and that they cancel the passport of any citizen who breaches quarantine.

Enforcement? Sure you can't enforce the normal distancing rules never mind cancelling people's passports

So what if we don't get a vaccine and we have 5/6 cases on a daily bases?
And we still can't tell if kids pass it on
Say 2 years down the line 5/6 cases everyday
Take it you keep the kids off??

They are going back in September in some form, I didn't mention vaccine, but the cases will be a lot lower come September and more manageable should there be a rise.

Different reports on children spreading it so no I can't answer you. If the scientist can't give us a certain 100% answer to that I can't
Hardstation car crash causes serious illness or even death. Do you stop your kids getting into the car?

So you can't answer it? It's a simple yes they can't get and pass on or they can!

Placing 30 kids in a class and teachers plus staff and others that'll come into contact, applying social distancing to 5 years, good luck with that.

When you get me a proper scientist that says clods don't get the virus and if they do can't pass it on I'll send them back

Anyway, is the teachers' back pay getting paid this month?

Apparently so! How much do you think we will get? Double whatever our wage is?

We've picked a holiday for it, we are both 50 in just over a year, so New York in 2021 October during first term when she's off again! It'll go towards the flights lol

What are you afraid off? What is your concern?

Answer me this first, do you think kids pass on the virus?

What's the deaths rates in England got to do with the schools opening last Monday?

I wouldn't be sending my kids to school when there are so many new cases and deaths in England, but you're happy with that?

Great news Rois
3 weeks ago Ross and co had everything cancelled for the year
I actually think the north should go one step ahead of the South today and announce that any restaurants with outside facilities could open to serve food and drink up to a certain time from the 22nd of June. No reason that shops can affectively open now and restaurants etc can't. All that would obviously come down to places being able to stick to the 2 metre rule where possible
Madness that schools haven't been back from June 1st at a smaller capacity. Some uproar in England that schools were open last Monday hasn't been a word since. Good news not worth reporting

I'm not surprise there's uproar in England, have you seen the death rate there?

Slightly off topic but when da f**k are the recycling centres going to take soil?

Say they are waiting on government guidance?
Never mind the soil, I went on Friday with a load of plastic and glass bottles and cardboard. Sorry only taking cardboard! If there is one thing lockdown has generated in most houses it's bottles!

Pull up at most tesco's or Sainsburys, they've bottle banks in the car parks.

Is there one for soil  ;!

Is it £2500 then taxed? I've been lucky enough as work has looked after us, I wouldn't have struggled but would have been taking a hit wages wise had we'd been just given the basic

Can only talk about what I see, and teachers (that I know personally) are working via google classroom emails doing corrections and giving feedback. Why shouldn't they get paid like people who work from home?

I've friends in the street, one works for finance and his wife works for the council, they are working from home and getting paid! Could they do their job better at the office or face to face with clients? Yes no doubt about that.

So should they not get paid bunker?

Would you pay a Carpenter/Plumber/Accountant/Dentist full money for a job if they emailed you the instructions and left you to do the job?

I Can only talk about what I don't see, and teachers (that I know personally) are not working via google classroom, not doing corrections and not giving feedback.

Look they are on the Gravy train. It's been one long holiday. Chances are this will continue in dribs and drabs in September.

So am I on a free gravy train too? I work in private sector and been out of work since 22nd of March?

Furloughed and not back till 15th, my job is simple, sales, don't make sales don't make money. But because of my job I work with the vulnerable and it's not been safe for me or my clients to be in close contact until recent rules have been relaxed.

When lockdown rules are released further then teachers will go back.


Why are you bringing up other jobs?

Teachers teach in a class, usually 30 in them, are you telling me it's safe to do that? Where's your link to say that kids don't spread Covid? You're happy to send your child into that environment without knowing if it's ok? Like, completely ok?

Would it be a bad idea to pipe some crowd noise into the grounds?

Saw a bit of Union Berlin and Schalke earlier there was piped noise and the commentator said that it would be available in Prem League as an option whatever that meant..

I guess it means tv company add it rather than it being in the ground?

How did it sound? The only game I saw at the start of this was awful as a spectator sport
