During this horrible crisis we have all come to respect, more than ever, our frontline workers in the National Health Service. And the frontline workers in other sectors — our bus and train staff, the taxi drivers.
But has any body of people lowered itself more in the eyes of the public than our teachers, spurred on by their unions? I can’t think of one offhand.
I won’t link to the article.
My friend, who’s a Head at an inner city primary, has been in almost every day since March to teach the children of essential workers. She caught Covid during the first lockdown.
Rod Liddle is a c.nt.

Meanwhile across the country hundreds of thousands of parents were almost having full mental breakdowns trying to to home school just their own kids for more than a week.
Watching Joe Wicks for 10mins from the sofa while eating a bag of wotsits for breakfast in their Paw Patrol jarmies at 3pm is sort of like PE isn't it?
And fingerpainting with their own sh.t on their bedroom wall while you were crying in the toilet for half an hour is basically an Art A-Level.
This place is not a place of honor, no highly esteemed deed is commemorated here, nothing valued is here.
What is here was dangerous and repulsive to us.
This place is best shunned and left uninhabited.

c.nt paid to write c.nty things writes c.nty article. He’s just a Katie Hopclone.
Calm yourself Doctor NotTheNineO’ClockNews. We’re men of science. We fear no worldly terrors.

This diatribe just happens to coincide with the government admission that secondary schools really are entirely f.cked and a significant driver of infections, at least in London, Kent and Essex. He's a f.cking useful idiot, distracting from what government policy is doing.
And teaching unions have been so ineffectual, it's beyond a joke. I don't know how they've been painted as such bogeyman, when as far as I can see they've not mustered any significant resistance to the conditions their members find themselves in.

But, AIUI, there's no evidence (yet ??) that the vaccines do anything to stop people being spreaders of CoViD.
Anyone with expertise clarify that or not ??

Liddle being a c.nt is not at issue.
The c.nt's comments being relevant to vaccination/spreader stats is irrelevant (as AMS said).
My avatar was a scientific result that was later found to be 'mistaken' - I rarely claim to be 100% correct

Meta? I'd say so!

Absolutely. I stopped reading the crap he comes out with long ago, much better for the blood pressure!

I understand. One of my best friends is married to a school teacher, who caught COVID at school and gave it to my friend. Thankfully they didn't end up in ICU but they found it pretty rough. Hence my anger at that extract of Liddle spouting off once again about people and situations he knows nothing about. Ugh.

Be fair,
Liddle is an ex-journalist, hes now only a gobshite, and there seems to be a direct correlation between him becoming less of a journalist and more and more of a shithead.
