End each briefing with a bit of hope? I presume they'll have that data to hand? I emailed that suggestion earlier today (covidexitstrategy@gov.scot) I think it would be a real boost to see that number rising each day....hopefully ahead of target ( surely possible once the Oxford / Vauxhall Astra) vaccine approved - some believe this week) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 That arsehole Patel has a decent shout of being next PM when Johnson inevitably jacks it in soon. She would win over Sunak in a direct vote from the membership. She understands the base psychotic hatreds of the Tory base and fuels the same deranged horniness that Thatcher did. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 Apparently Britain is genuinely well ahead of Europe and most of the world in something for a change, genetic sequencing. It's possible the new variant is widespread over the channel too, they're just not aware of it yet 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She understands the base psychotic hatreds of the Tory base and fuels the same deranged horniness that Thatcher did. I remember saying last December (a week or so after the election) that Boris would not be PM by the end of 2020 (he is neither up to it or up for it) Looks as if I will be wrong but possibly not by a great margin. I wonder if there would be another election soon after his replacement is announced - seems to be the way (after May and Johnson both did this) They might even do this to hinder chances of a quick referendum after independent party success at Holyrood.....now is not the time...blah blah..... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteRoseKillie Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 13 hours ago, virginton said: That depends on how many employees are in the total team and how many parents actually need leave. If you have 4 or 5 parents in a team then the number who actually need full-time level leave is most likely going to be 3-3.5 to begin with. The idea that businesses are going to be cracking the whip to insist that people come in to exploit the great business environment of January 2021 instead of having them take unpaid leave in the wake of nationwide school closures is just dystopian nonsense. Can you not for once pause in your self-agrandissement and think? In our beautiful modern society, families for the most part need two incomes. Unpaid leave is absolutely no fucking good to these parents, unless you suggest they should eat their kids? Schools are a significant part of the plan*, and with this lovely virus, the normal fallback of grandparents has largely been taken out of the picture. The idea of a societal failure who spends every day on here telling people how to live in the real world but, I repeat, spends every day on a wee football forum, has a few flaws in it as well. *As is, for many, having annual leave at different times to ensure childcare throughout the school holidays. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkey Tennis Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 Page 2062 on this very thread is where the discussion around the Swinney announcement on 23rd June begins. It unfolds over the following few pages with various teachers, including Gaz funnily enough, chipping in about the change in government direction and the change in school planning that it necessitated. It could not be more clear that the plan for schools to make a full time return for all pupils in August, was announced on Tuesday the 23rd of June. It had nothing at all to do with the exam mess which emerged with the results on the 4th of August, exactly six weeks later. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkey Tennis Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 On 23/06/2020 at 18:46, Gaz said: Our local authority's plans for the blended model had teachers being in school for most of the week but also working from home part of the week. A large part of this was down to logistics - under the blended model, we were to have a maximum of ten pupils in a class spread out over three times as many rooms as they would have normally required. This meant that when teachers had non-contact time, being able to sit in our rooms to plan / mark wasn't going to be feasible as our room would be being used. Given that we weren't going to be allowed to congregate in staff rooms, and our terms and conditions explicitly allow us to carry out certain aspects of our job remotely, our staff were to be expected to be working from home part of the week. This new plan changes that, we're now going to be in as normal. Remarkable. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
