Scotland going back into lockdown

stevestrat · 4th January 2021, 13:39

Due to this new covid variant spreading fast Scotland is going back into "stay at home" lockdown from midnight tonight until the end of January. Measures are even more stringent than the original lockdown, meeting outside is a virtual no-no, only allowed to meet one person from one other household, meeting indoors is out of the question.

Yeah, suspect the bookies won't be taking bets on that.

Most of the country is in tier 4 anyway,so it means the whole of England will be, it needs to be done though. I knew a U turn on school opening would come. They insist schools are safe, aye for little kids maybe,but not for staff,the only reason they didn't say close for today is the fact that they refuse to be told what they should do by unions.

Boris Johnson closing schools is really going to anger Boris Johnson who said earlier that they were safe.

As expected England joining the lockdown party.

I really don't see any end to this at all.

So are the results next day, A96 between Elgin and Lhanbryde was as busy as any other day. Same when we in Moray went into tier four from one on Boxing Day, all shops open and everyone going about their business as normal
