I think the main point is that many professions can make a case for needing the vaccine before anyone else and teachers are not a special case when emergency service workers (outside the NHS), prison officers for example are not even a priority. Those professions that cannot not be completed without social contact. As Dan points out those keeping the world moving ...but that list is long and try telling anyone that their own job or life is less important than someone else’s
Teachers and schools are a controlled environment. Distancing should be able to be managed and controlled. There are plenty of jobs in the public domain that are not so able to be controlled that could make a case.
Boris has turned up. 19:09
and how many seconds? #obsessed
English thing mate it's the ish bit ie 7 ishI just find it strange, that a world leader who says he’s going to make an announcement at 7pm doesn’t turn out at bang on 7pm.
Always found it very odd...

It was a standing joke when I worked with the Germans, we will have a meeting tomorrow at 9 am-ish. They would be there bang on 9 ready to go and we'd be strolling in with a mug of tea or coffee at 7 mins past. Took them a while to catch onYes, imagine Merkel sat there at 7pm waiting for Boris to phone her - she’d be having kittens.
Brits are always running a few minutes late because they’re making a cuppa tea. Me included

If was a Friday morning they'd have been eating white sausage and saurkraut and drinking weiss beer for breakfastDidn’t do them much good on D-Day though . We were a day late for that.
He obviously has Cornish ancestors.I just find it strange, that a world leader who says he’s going to make an announcement at 7pm doesn’t turn out at bang on 7pm.

The common sense thing for me would have been to vaccinate all the teachers first. They keep saying its vital to get the kids back into school then surely teachers should be classed as essential workers.

Don't get my wife started on that. She is a High Level teaching assistant with special needs children who have no concept of social distancing etc. You would think with the way the vaccine is being rolled out they would be able to vaccinate the teachers with room to spare.
He's a fucking neanderthal ignoramus and it's entirely possible he can't even tell the time. A national embarrassment.Arrogant, sloppy, ignorant, rude.
Which about sums him up so no surprise really.
Some of those journalists questions though.
Had to turn over before damaging my tv.
He's become a bit too self aware.I actually used to quite like Peston a few years back - was he always a cock and I hadn't noticed?
