Closed petition Exclude under 12s from the 'rule of 6' for a 'Christmas period'

Over the traditional UK Christmas period, from 24th December until the 26th exclude all under 12s from counting towards the 'rule of 6'.

More details

Allowing this would allow families to see each other during what is both a time of celebration and also a time when others are also under severe mental strain.
This would help not only grandparents and other family members celebrate with loved ones, but also help curb any disregard for current rules which could turn communities against each other alongside decreasing depression often seen at this time of year (and sure to increase if families are kept seperated).
