    Who deserves priority?,a taxi driver sent to pick up 4 junkies who don't give a monkeys about the virus or a teacher with 20 five year olds in their class ?.
    Teaching unions need to shut the phuck up their members are not in meat or chicken factories or in a saloon car picking up passengers possibly carrying the virus.
    If they were at a greater danger of contracting the virus i would say fair enough but they are not and they spend at least a quarter of a year without any pupils to deal with either in an empty classroom or with their feet up at home.

    As you put it like that, and this is not based on anecdote! Where are the taxi drivers kids? Where are the junkies kids? Where are the kids whos families are at food processing plants? Who is spending time with the kids of those essential NHS workers? Who is spending time with the ones who are most likely to be partying? She is not a teacher, but she does work in a school with classes exceeding 20!

    I question the data because teachers and staff risks were low while others was very high and i dont think this was considered. But our leaders are asking teachers and staff to accept the same risks, and i think ALL high risk workers should be vaccinated ahead of me! Neither have i ever believed that kids dont catch and spread this, the spread of the common cold in my experience disputes this!
