Cleaners

You could, but that would be contrary to government advice....No different to paying your kid to fix your boiler or wire a plug is it?
 
I think it’s the contradiction of being able to let a complete stranger into your house to clean, but not being able to have a family member come into your house to visit.
 
Ah right.... Presumably it's two fold 1) You're unlikely to have sustained close contact with a family member and 2) There's an economic priority to try and get people working.

I imagine its much easier to social distance from a person employed to clean your house than it is with a loved one. Its fascinating how people try to find a work round procedures put in place to keep us safe.
 
Think Laura Kuenssberg made the perfectly valid point on the news yesterday. The gov't can issue advice but it is impossible for it to cover every scenario. Yet here we have people deliberately being goddam awkward for no other reason than it doesn't suit their political agenda. And I genuinely don't know whether she's red or blue and neither do I care. She just made a perfectly valid point by stating the obvious.

If they can have cleaners in ( which you can ) paid childminders can have have kids in. Why the fuck can’t I have my two little grandchildren. Not all grandparents are over 70 ffs.
This question was asked on bbc news this morning to Matt Hancock and he said because they’re trying to protect the elderly over 70s. We’re not all old grandparents
 
Have you covid 19 or got symptoms michelle, have they got it or symptoms,if the answer is no then I would use your commonsense and have them. Whether you wish to practice safe distancing or wear ppe is up to yourself,I would if giving a hug.

No we haven’t been out for 7 weeks my husband or I only hubby takes dog a walk.
No symptoms nothing. Family with the children have also been staying in as both nhs and can work from home only been Stanley Park with the children for a walk
I won’t break the rules I just can’t see the difference between letting children stay with a childminder as opposed to their own grandparents

That's true... there are so many anomalies with "relaxing" the rules a little bit but I guess that's inevitable.
There will be many current 40 - 60 year old teachers and teaching assistants who are also grandparents - allowed to mix with hundreds of other people's grandchildren but not their own 🤪

Same with taxi drivers- can’t mix with their grandkids unless the meters running!
😂

I know you don't care but, for anyone who is interested, she was the President of the Oxford University Conservative Association. Nick Robinson was too coincidentally.

Nope, had no idea. I find it amusing to read the right wing accusing people of being biased towards the left and the left wing accusing people being biased towards the right. The only left wing and right wing I'm fussed about are those in the Blackpool team.

That might suggest that the BBC are getting it right by managing to piss off both sides. (Retires to safe distance)
 
My cleaning lady has come as usual once a week whilst I am at work. She wears gloves to come in then washes her hands. Just common sence really.
