Closed Allow Christmas celebrations on either the 24th, 25th or 26th December

Closed on

The same COVID guidelines can stay in place, in terms of number of households and persons mixing. However rather than this just being relaxed for the 25th December. The people can choose to hold a single day of celebrations on either the 24th, 25th or 26th of December.

The new regulations mean that key workers who are working Christmas Day (25/12/20) now get no Christmas, regardless of their Tier.

These Key Workers have been battling COVID all year, on the front line, with no rest, no furlough, no let up.

And now, those that have to work Christmas Day (many would have volunteered to work this day to help) will get no Christmas.

I am not talking about 3 days of celebrations. Just the one, but a choice of on which day the 24th, 25th or 26th.
