If the latest plan works, the country can return to lower level restrictions throughout December

There are several in its ranks who think that Level 5 restrictions for six weeks are excessive.However, if it works the country can return to lower level restrictions throughout December.This would see businesses re-open for the festive and profitable period in the run up to Christmas.Today's meeting was grim at times apparently, with ministers hearing that upwards of 200,000 more people could be out of work soon.

There are also changes to the Employment Wage Subsidy Scheme devised to keep as many people as possible in employment during the increased restrictions.By then Government will hope that tonight's announcement will be a memory from a different time.In the meantime, the focus from Government is likely to remain on the things that will remain in place during Level 5.

🤪😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

The restrictions are so severe that people will mix and party more than ever in December for relief and we will be back where we started in Jan or Feb. Has the gov got behavioural scientists to help them as the current approach is encouraging a vicious cycle?

If it works! Will Fail better this time.

Every time you read a journalist spouting pure scaremongering, call them out every time

FFS you'd think it was 28 Days Later levels of dangerous, the way this lot are crushing the economy and life of everyone. It's a disproportionate reaction to impose such draconian restrictions

And then what?

Nobody knows...

You people are sick.

Throughout December...There you have it reported by the government muppets...Lockdown again January..🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕

Measures arent proportionate and trust lawsuits will start. RTE are puppets for the govt. Incompetent govt and CMO believe lock down is a management measure.

And if it doesn't? What's the plan then lads?

What’s level 6 and 7 you pricks

The virtue signalling fools continue. Save CHRISTMAS is the new COVID call. Keep all schools open, yet remove all christian symbols (not the wearing of hijabs or burka's) from national schools in case it offends Muslims. Is CHRISTMAS NOT A CHRISTIAN festival ?How inconvenient.

Does anyone, literally anyone actually believe this?

MichealLehane Christmas shouldn’t even be in the plan. Building up a contact tracing team that can effectively track down infection sources should so we can shut those households & businesses down. Targeted measures. Areas of the country have Level 1 or 2 case levels. Don’t drag them down

The idea is that people should be delighted if everyone does as they are told then you can have Christmas Day!!

Permanent lockdown baby whoseurdaddyleo

Not much of a plan....just winging it and the decisions becoming more and more ludicrous. What happens when the 'latest plan' fails yet again.....oh never-ending,there'll probably be a super extra bonus level 5+!! Ye are a joke 🖕

With schools are still opening, we see!

God your so transparent kontrol19

Be good little boys and girls now and do as ye are told and ye can have a little treat and be let outside for christmas. But only if ye behave now.

....and if it doesn’t, the people have only got themselves to blame for Christmas being cancelled........do they really think we are 5 years old? It’s similar to the way that abusers justify their actions.

Sure

Bollix because the cycle will restart, what ever happened to living with the virus as opposed to killing the economy, livelihoods and hope?

They don't even have a plan.

Get the Christmas shopping in, then back to lock down.

The majority are waking up. The previous restrictions made things worse. Why will this be any different. All for a flu like illness with a 99%survival rate and medication to cure it well known. Only the thickest in the country will still play along.

And if it doesn't?

Is there a level 6 if it doesn’t
