Nailed it @karamballes, never has a “grass roots” parents group been more inappropriately named.

#UsForUs would be far more apt!

These particular parents are the v same people arguing against 😷s & vaccine passports & just about anything we know ⬇️s transmission.

If they actually cared about children’s health & wellbeing AND wanted to reduce educational disruption, they’d have put their weight & influence behind making 🇬🇧schools safer.
They’ve had months to do it & have wealth & political influence on their side.
So why have they not?

It’s quite obvious now, it’s all about THEIR FREEDOMs & THEIR RIGHTs.

They don’t want to #WearAMask or compromise their social lives, restrict their travel & they certainly don’t want to be involved in home schooling.

& I suspect for many, the #antivax narrative is simply because they can’t be seen to acknowledge that #COVID can harm & kill children and spread to their families without doing a 180deg about turn on the lack of #COVID19 mitigations in schools!
4/

They truly are the lowest of the low, they’d even sacrifice the health of their own children & own older family members to maintain a tight hold on THEIR FREEDOMs!

Sickening, chilling, grotesque!
