Then imagine we expect the children to engage in learning from home. Not to mention the parents who, at times, have to teach them who probably haven’t eaten at all so their children can... We MUST do better. This is 2021
3 days of food for 1 family... Just not good enough.

The voters have spoken, and they have chosen @JoeBiden and @KamalaHarris to be our next president and vice president. It's a history-making ticket, a repudiation of Trump, and a new page for America. Thank you to everyone who helped make this happen. Onward, together.

Minneapolis is grieving for a reason. To paraphrase Dr. King, the negative peace which is the absence of tension is no substitute for the positive peace which is the presence of justice. Justice is how we heal.

This is contemptible. All of it. Millions of people obeyed the rules HE created - and he brazenly ignored them multiple times. Now he’s lying away, playing the victim, and taking the whole country for morons. #cummings

We’re absolutely disgusted that Boris Johnson has put protecting Dominic Cummings above the health of this country Please RT if you are too

This poor boy's family stayed away from his deathbed & funeral because they obeyed the Govt rules. Imagine how that family is feeling now, knowing that all they had to do was follow their 'instinct', not the rules? You're a disgrace @BorisJohnson. RIP Ismail.

People have missed funerals of loved ones because of lockdown. Many have had to look after their own young children while ill. One of the architects of the rules keeping those people housebound drove across the UK, knowing he had the virus. Indefensible hypocrisy and selfishness.
Taking care of your wife and young child is justifiable and reasonable, trying to score political points over it isn’t.

Just for absolute clarity, nothing the Prime Minister said tonight affects when schools return in Scotland. I am working with Local Authorities, Directors of Education, Teaching Unions and Parents to agree a way forward for Scotland. #StayHomeSaveLives

Please continue to #StayAtHome. By staying at home, you are saving lives. You are respecting workers on the frontline. You are making a difference.

When I was at school in Scotland, critical thinking was openly welcomed in the classroom and was seen as an essential part of the curriculum. It still is. It isn’t in England. This might help explain the diametrically different voting behaviours of both countries.

Given Friday’s further restrictions on social distancing we need to take more action to keep numbers in schools to an absolute minimum. S4-6 pupils SHOULD NOT attend school to complete coursework. @sqanews supports this. Grateful to all schools for their support to young people.
