I've been scrolling through Twitter and am disgusted at some of the things I'm seeing about students at universities at the moment.
Apparently police are stationed around some uni halls of residence, telling off people for playing music and apparently some were following students right into their hall of residence to ensure that they aren't attending a party.
And Wee Nippy up in Scotland is a total ageist freak - she wasn't willing to release lockdown for younger people back in the 1st lockdown but is more than willing to punish students and not allow them out at all during the weekend. How does that make a shred of sense? And it's now a criminal offence to go home? The suicide and self-harm rate will go up for sure. Put yourself in that situation - away from home for the first time, homesick, alone, not around anyone you know, in a different city, police around you. It does NOT bear thinking about. Why the hell are we still so COVID centric and why are we restricting students so much when we know that they won't die from the virus?
Criminals are treated better than that!!! We need to do something and do it ASAP!!!!
