ohh okay, i misunderstood the rulesThis isn’t true? It’s still two other households for Christmas day
And there in is the contradiction like so many of the rules!!But thinking about Zoe's case, when everyone would be at their house, I mean, if you have already been together the whole day, then you could just keep going like that for another 2 days or whatever? The chance of getting the virus is the same no matter how long they stay there together, unless someone leaves the house.
I swear I heard Boris say it was down to 2 households instead of 3. And then I looked online and thought I was going mad!ohh okay, i misunderstood the rulesso confusing haha
He’s said keep it as small as possible! But the official line is 3I swear I heard Boris say it was down to 2 households instead of 3. And then I looked online and thought I was going mad!
Really, what don’t you people understand?! It‘s NOT a human right to have a Christmas party actually, we are so overindulged in the West it’s like people can’t comprehend that they have to sacrifice something over a longer period of time (which is really only one year) and experience something vaguely unpleasant. Look at the hospitalization rates and death tolls!Even if she wasn’t allowed and did mix she won’t be the only one and I wouldn’t blame her for it. A parent shouldn’t have to choose which child they’re to spend Christmas with! I really couldn’t care less what people decide to do on Christmas Day after a shit year we all deserve one good day with our families !!
And! People don’t even observe it for religious reasons, every other religious festival has been done in lockdown, eid was effectively cancelled the day before, I’m sick of this white supremacy mentality, if we have learnt anything in 2020 it’s that micro aggressions are the worst, and it’s time Boris and everyone else was called out on itReally, what don’t you people understand?!

This isn’t a game where you get to press pause because Christmas is fun for you!
My parents aren’t seeing all their children for Christmas, my brother is a teacher and we won’t be gathering with him and others. Boo hoo, we just get on with it ffs. It’s one Christmas and it’s really not that big a deal in the grand scheme of things. The next day the world will go on turning and Christmas will be over, so what does it matter?
I swear the same people who are like “oh we deserve it after this dreadful year!” are the same ones who went on like 3 holidays this summer anyway.
I mean what about the restrictions is “white supremacy”? That is an incredibly bold statement to make.And!

It’s not ideal but it’s short term pain!
The fact we’re still allowed to mix at all (outside of those who are now not allowed) because it’s “Christmas” where as all these other religious festivals (largely engaged by ethnic minorities) were just forced to accept it, no sorry from Boris, no mention of it by the main stream media despite it being one of the most popular religious celebrations in Britain (eid that is) the idea that a capitalist festival is more important, is a white supremacy mentality, it’s not a strong accusation when Boris is a clear racist and just don’t give a fuckI mean what about the restrictions is “white supremacy”?

5’10 and South Asian over hereCan we swap, I'm 5'7 and 'too tall' for a South Asian woman, although it is nice to have the option of using aunties as an elbow rest sometimes.
The biggest religious festival of all based on numbers and significance in the religion is Easter, which is Christian and was in peak lockdown, not EID. It wasn’t only religious festivals of predominantly ethnic backgrounds that had bans on mixing this year. Easter was heavily restricted and was before you could even meet outside.The fact we’re still allowed to mix at all (outside of those who are now not allowed) because it’s “Christmas” where as all these other religious festivals (largely engaged by ethnic minorities) were just forced to accept it, no sorry from Boris, no mention of it by the main stream media despite it being one of the most popular religious celebrations in Britain (eid that is) the idea that a capitalist festival is more important, is a white supremacy mentality, it’s not a strong accusation when Boris is a clear racist and just don’t give a fuck

EDIT: Oh and frankly the ~these rules are so confusing~ talk is so overdone at this point. ITS A CONTAGIOUS MUTATING AIRBORNE DISEASE THE RULE IS TO LIMIT YOUR SOCIAL CONTACT TO THE ABSOLUTE NECESSITIES! THE RULES ARE MADE UP TO ALLOW MORE LENIENCY ONLY BECAUSE THEN EVERYONE WOULD WHINE ENDLESSLY. Jfc! I’m sorry but the UK should be ashamed of themselves with this endless self indulgent complaining.

Oh come off it seriously. It’s Christmas. I haven’t had any holidays, I have worked throughout the lockdown. I also live alone and I am really suffering for it so yep I DO deserve ONE day where I get to spend time with my parents and my sister. That is who I am spending it with. Get off your high horse, I only said I don’t see the problem during Christmas because it’s one dayReally, what don’t you people understand?!

Yep, but as you said, that is you, YOUR life. We've all been seeing zoe disrespect the rules, trying to find loopholes. She's an influencer - as far as we know, you're not. You spending time with your family won't influence other people to do it. Seeing her bending rules to her will kind of makes her fans think they can do it too.Oh come off it seriously. It’s Christmas. I haven’t had any holidays, I have worked throughout the lockdown. I also live alone and I am really suffering for it so yep I DO deserve ONE day where I get to spend time with my parents and my sister. That is who I am spending it with. Get off your high horse, I only said I don’t see the problem during Christmas because it’s one day!!!!!! I have been on my own since March. Loneliness is a killer too!!! You are seriously derailing and your comment towards me was so rude and uncalled for.
now back to Zoe...
