Scientists and Government could have reviewed such outcomes as a risk. This was predictable. Then weighed it in the balance when deciding whether to lockdown.

We said lockdowns were a bad idea from the start. Kids also have a speech impediments and some have picked a Yankee accent, due to watching American YouTube channels and kids programmes.

Annoys me in coffee shops the kids like to engage with their parents and get their attention, but the parents are too busy scrolling on their phones. I overlooked a phone by accident last week in a coffee shop. The kid was trying to talk to her but she was too busy talking to men on Tinder.

Glad my dating days are over.
