If I have an obsession it is in regard to people being safe in their places of work and that obsession I have retained for the last thirty-five years.
To be quite frank, you really don't seem very obsessed about safety in schools.
There are 8,820,000 pupils in English schools - nearly 16% of a population of 55,980,000. Until now, they have not been forced into environments which are considered unsafe for the general public. The potential damage which outbreaks amongst such a large proportion of the population could cause, doesn't bear thinking about. It won't just be the pupils and staff who will be affected, but the families and communities in which they live - and, of course, the economy. The government has a moral duty to ensure that doesn't happen.
