Why am I not surprised? I just wish this government would be more honest. This going back to school can be gussied up to be concerns for vulnerable and poorer ability children
Not at FR/Y1 level. Ability doesn’t come into it.

but it's just a desire to use teachers and nursery staff as childminders
Well nursery staff are childminders.
But yes, I would greatly appreciate my youngest to back to FR, and/or when school is over to go to holiday club. Myself and Mrs Pierre are both working full time and simply don’t have the time to home school as well. We’re trying but it’s not great. If youngest goes back we can at least do more with their sibling in Y4.

They obviously think enough people care - hence why they are running a disinformation campaign and attacking the unions and medical professionals who are sceptical about the value of opening schools.
Medical evidence is out the window and human life is dispensable as long as we can reopen the economy.
In a few months time it'll be we 'threw a protective bubble around schools' regardless of outcome.
No earlier than June, we hope to move to step two, opening schools to more children and reopening some shops. And no earlier than July, we can move to step three, opening parts of the leisure and hospitality sectors.
Some shops no earlier than June. Not all, not even most, but some. Indicating to me that the Government does not expect the majority of retail workers to go back to work.
Leisure and hospitality looks an even greyer area, further out in time.
Free movement in Italy from 3rd June 2020 - visitors from the Schengen Area, and Great Britain, will not be subject to restrictions.

Wot? No Force Majeure clause in the Withdrawal Agreement?
It's their way or the highway
If we don't do as we are told they will chuck us out.

A trip to the European Court of Justice is quite cheap compared to inviting a second coronavirus wave to your shores. It’s also time consuming enough to obfuscate the matter long enough to be irrelevant.
On Sunday [10th May], Downing Street said a reciprocal deal with Paris meant quarantine restrictions would not apply to people arriving from France. In a joint statement, the British and French governments said: “No quarantine measures would apply to travellers coming from France at this stage; any measures on either side would be taken in a concerted and reciprocal manner.”
But on Friday [15th May] Number 10 comprehensively backtracked from the joint announcement. “There isn’t a French exemption. What the statement at the weekend said was that we would be working with the French in the coming weeks because co-operation is particularly necessary for the management of our common border,” a spokesman for the prime minister said.

Llamas to the rescue?

'Llamas are the real unicorns': why they could be our secret weapon against coronavirus
he solution to the coronavirus may have been staring us in the face this whole time, lazily chewing on a carrot. All we need, it seems, is llamas.
A study published last week in the journal Cell found that antibodies in llamas’ blood could offer a defence against the coronavirus. In addition to larger antibodies like ours, llamas have small ones that can sneak into spaces on viral proteins that are too tiny for human antibodies, helping them to fend off the threat. The hope is that the llama antibodies could help protect humans who have not been infected.
