    They do have a certain amount of mistrust and scepticism to overcome before a vaccine is accepted by many Americans.

    Christmas restricted to just Christmas Day now. Or none at all in the new tier 4 areas.

    People drink lots of alcohol on Christmas Day. It's ****ing stupid to make people drive home on the same day. Make it 1 night.

    Maybe those people will have to not drink alcohol for just one Christmas and not be selfish. It’s not that big an ask.

    Even if I don't drink I'm not driving back home on Christmas Day. The roads will be full of drunk drivers.

    Wager you'd get less drunk drivers on Christmas day than a standard Friday or Saturday night.

    How far you going? Could always get a taxi.

    Well then you've got a decision to make. No one can force you to do anything. Any elderly relatives there?

    I just wish the sodding government had listened to the scientists weeks ago when they said postpone Christmas, stop people travelling. Now, god knows how they’ll police it, there’ll be drunk drivers on Christmas Day evening and the ****wits who ignore the rules will still do as they want.
    My children are both in tier 4 now, so we’ll postpone and have a get together when we can. I’ll stay at home and, in the words of the great Billy Mack from “Love Actually”, just stay in “get pissed and watch porn” :emoticon-0102-bigsm:emoticon-0102-bigsm:emoticon-0102-bigsm

    Whole thing was pushed by the media, a decision should have never been taken at the stage it was in the first place.
