It is expected the Government will allow people to visit the homes of their friends and family over a two-week period near Christmas next month, Tánaiste Leo Varadkar has said.

, countries that had a much lower incidence than us, the virus suddenly taking off in the course of a week or two, so it’s not possible to rule out a return to Level 5 at some point next year,” he said.

Restrictions are to be eased in phases next month, with shops, hairdressers, hotels, and museums expected to be allowed reopen at the start of December. “The things we’ll do towards the start are the things that we know to be safer, opening the shops, opening the gyms, allowing people to get their haircuts.”

No final decision had been made on when restaurants would be allowed to reopen, and the Cabinet would decide the final plan on Friday, following further advice from theMr Varadkar denied that a phased relaxation of measures would be confusing for people. “We are going to try as much as possible to keep the rules simple and straightforward,” he said.

Who'll stop us?

Sinn Féin up to their usual tricks... 🙄

Thank you, oh gracious one

😂😂 As if I need permission. I've had visitors all year. Christmas will be no different

My Nana died last Friday at 97, just before her 98th birthday. She was not allowed see her grand kids or great grand kids before she died. Utter cruelty.

Utter bollox. I’m planning a normal Christmas, same as every TD will be!!I don’t need ‘permission’ to celebrate Christmas and if I hear the word ALLOW again I probably will lose the plot‼️‼️F*CK OFF Irish government and wake the hell up🤬🤬

'Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of such things God's wrath comes on those who are disobedient.'

I have already given myself permission to do that don’t need the government dictating what happens in my home.

Annette57807615 Was visiting homes banned? News to me. Not that it would have mattered. Why? I do not consent. I will not comply.

It’s interesting to see how degraded the brands of and rte / rtenews have become this year. You’d almost think the “far-right” are actually on to something

Oh right, looked closer. It’s just another off-the-cuff tweet from sociopath varadkar

Allow

Allow 😂😂😂😂😂

Yes because corona is heading off on holidays😂😂😂

Oh great. Will you tell him we said thanks a mill. 🙄

It’s really quite simple. If you want to remain indoors hiding from the virus, do it. If you want to get on with living as is our birthright, do it.

Shebeen anyone

What a plank. Because of a casedemic, with a minimal death rate where people have died WITH, not from covid, we need to just keep taking this shite?

What virus?

Usurpers of the law

👏👏👏👏we will be allowed..Your in for a surprise Varadker.. Keep your shirt on and hold onto your hat because We are having a blowout this Christmas in safe surroundings mind you... You have been WARNED..

That is the funniest fucking headline I have ever read....Like we need permission, the entity known as government is corrupt and drunk on power, but its only power because the people acquiescence to it, they are nothing!

An bhfuil cead agam dul go dtí an leithreas, más é do thoil é?

Permission is definitely not needed to do this as it never stopped, what planet are the government on. Need to focus on the businesses that have been closed since March.👎

Wow .. thank you so much .. ya ya

My God Given Rights supersede the Vampires 'advice' !!

LeoVaradkar stickt to your role man and keep your opinion / comments to yourself, alternatively make a public announcement!

'Allow'..... 😂 People are fools to go along with all this. Dont forget Varadkar in the park with cans, Golfgate and RTEgate Rules for thee but not for me.... you and whose Army is gonna stop us doing whatever we want? They are the few and we are the many.

Allow...permit?

😂🤣🤣😂🤣😂🤣

Thank you comrade Lee-Oh

NPHET (HSE/DOH) cant do their day jobs hence the 600k on waiting lists. The HSE manages to make Eir look efficient and customer focused so why anyone would care what they say i have no idea. Remember doctors dont get paid if u dont get sick. Healthy diet, healthy lifestyle.

We don’t need their permission,know your rights,see the Irish constitution

If the publicans can organise with their staff, customers, and the public they will be open too

'“We are going to try as much as possible to keep the rules simple and straightforward,” [Mr Varadkar] said.' I foresee two options: 1) Go where you like when you like 2) Stay in bed all the time (wearing a mask) Both 'simple and straightforward'. But only one is rational. 🙄

they think they have any say in this? they never had the right to dictate this type of thing in a free society to begin with. as long as they behave like fascists we can safely ignore them.

Am I an outlier in believing this is in reality already happening?

I'm having a party on Saturday all welcome

Well there's confirmation that this is not about a virus if ever you needed it.

No permission required.

Honestly haven't a notion what planet these people are living on. I've been visiting my family uninterrupted all year.

Don't need their permission, never did and never will.

Since when do family need permission from NPhed or Gov. Remember constitutional rights

Allow 😂😂😂
