There are some reports you can find on Google: down to lack of staff in the first instanceSo why did they close the Nightingale hospitals?
Ours already is3 weeks is when school breaks up. Guessing our nativity will be cancelled
The pandemic will end eventually, this is just a step back but at some stage it will be overSending hugs I feel the same. I was in a bad way last night (I have OCD and anxiety) this is tipping me over the edge to be honest. I’ll be OK it’s just the uncertainty
It would seem unlikely to be a blanket cancellation. After all, if everyone you're meeting for Christmas dinner has been triple jabbed...Hmmmm. Review in 3 weeks time. Christmas to be cancelled again then?
We aren’t back to where we started! Don’t be so ridiculous. It’s a variant! Not a brand new disease.We're back where we started because it's a new variant. Mask wearing and vaccines had a significant effect in reducing the transmission of the previous strains. But sure, you keep fighting the 'good fight'.I hope neither you nor your family members end up dead because of your inability to follow a few little rules.
My friends school have tooOurs already is
Well, it worked for New Zealand, but they'll never do it here. There's too much travel into and out of the UK.I don't see the problem with just banning all travel temporarily. Nip it in the bud like we should have done back in Feb 2020. It would mean people wouldn't be able to travel overseas for Christmas but at least we could see family in this country relatively safely.
I was just repeating what the other poster seemed to be implying I.e we're back to square one even with vaccines. I know that isn't actually the case.We aren’t back to where we started! Don’t be so ridiculous. It’s a variant! Not a brand new disease.
My guess is they want to see how the new variant will develop, as well as delta, and then introduce new measures.Least it’s only masks in shops and on PT, I don’t see it being like it was before either in terms of compliance.
I was expecting Plan B at some point during winter anyway, and this is plan B light as still no WFH, vaccine passports or masks in all indoor settings thankfully.
If just the delta variant keeps climbing as it is I don’t see it being lifted in 3 weeks regardless of the new variant.
I thought no I'm A Celeb was to cheer us up.Ffs! Like another covid variant wasn't enough there's now no I'm a celebrity on tonight. Pass me the gin!
It's just so frustrating. We all know how it's going to develop. Why prolong the agony? Just hit it hard with restrictions now and get it over with. Otherwise it really will be 2020 all over againMy guess is they want to see how the new variant will develop, as well as delta, and then introduce new measures.
I think there will be a lockdown again.
Maybe, maybe not.My guess is they want to see how the new variant will develop, as well as delta, and then introduce new measures.

We can't lockdown again. We're already in massive debt due to furlough etc that financially it's not possible to close places again. It won't happen on that scale againMaybe, maybe not.
If there is, I doubt the majority will comply anyway - I know I won’t. (And I complied fully with previous lockdowns.)
I think they know that it won’t have the effect it once did so they’d be wrecking the economy for far less gain, making it a lot less likely than it was previously.
