I just dont get why when have come so far and sacrificed so much time that we could actually risk being back to square one come Feb/March. It's like groundhog day! We are all suffering, we have given up well earned summer holidays, other religions have had to forfeit their religious times. I feel it extremely selfish that people would risk everything (and everybody) for what has now become for most, simply a chance to eat, drink and be merry. I personally think we should stick this out, wait to see what happens with vaccines and put our efforts into making 2021 a better year and plan for Christmas 2021 instead. It's fine and well saying that for some of the elderly it may be their last Christmas, but we could really say that about anyone, we dont know what's round the corner. It appears as a nation we are so much weaker than our European counterparts. Their lockdowns and rules from the start have been much stricter. Pubs, etc in France are now closed until the end of January and Spain is on major alert until May 2021, and even the scientists here seem to think meeting up for 5 days is a mistake. We just all seem to fold and buckle at the sight of tinsel and the sound of a Christmas tune! I've now lost faith in all of the four nations leaders. Now, I sound like a real Bah Humbug, when in fact I am the complete opposite. I love Christmas, but I do think this is all too much too soon. In fact I find it quite frightening.
