  1. I know, terrible, especially when children are so obviously at high risk from Covid. All those young people it’s killed. Just madness altogether. Don’t they know that more than 6 Children in a room at once from more than two different households could kill us all!?

  2. Kids are already way behind where they should be. We can’t hold them back forever due to the virus. Hospitality and schools have been f*cked over more than any other group.

    If you want to direct your ire, point it towards

    (A) The government who run the health service that already nearly collapses under the winter flu strain

    (B) The unvaccinated who make up the majority of those in the ICU

    We can’t continue the cycle of reopen, lockdown forever. The virus isn’t going anywhere.

  3. Educational facilities (primary level – third level) should not be closed at all. Absolute freaks on here foaming at the mouth thinking of students trying to learn on Zoom. Weirdos

  4. What I can ascertain from this post is that people would rather the schools close so nightclubs can open ?

    Prioritising 10 euro For 3 Jagerbombs over kids education?

  5. They only need another few months to qualify for that sweet, sweet, juicy ministerial pension. Also, the government wasn’t formed and ministers appointed until some time around the summer of 2020, so they’re probably only about 18 months in, and is it 2 years you need to be a minister to get the pension, or did they up that?

  6. What a load of trite cliched rubbish compressed into one short post.

    Parents know that children are best served by allowing them attend school, to best serve their social, developmental and educational needs. There is a reason why the right of a child to an education has been hard fought, and won, down through the centuries.

    Therefore, school closure should be a last resort, and where school closure or to other measures which impact negatively on children’s school experience and participation are imposed this should be only where there is a clear, evidence based need for those measures.

    Schools are not “childcare for parents durrrrhuhhuhuh” they the place where kids need to be during school terms, routinely, consistently, and with as little disruption as possible.

    And if there is going to be measures imposed on kids that impact participation in school someone has to stand up the evidence that sustains those measures so as to outweigh the disadvantage to the people affected by them.
