LabourHealth Of course they do

Then support the government in getting them back to school then, we have examples from other countries and if we never eradicate this virus does that mean children never go back to school ?

This whole covid thing had become a political battle ground

And so you should be fearful your causing it !with your approach and nonsense !

Has anyone got a backbone anymore ?

So he is concerned about the children's mental health but won't be encouraging them back to school. Labour. Unfit to run a bath.

The lockdown is causing immense damage in so, so many ways, yet here we are in week nine without moving forward.

Fully support!

Live alone with stress and depression. When can I hug my parents / family or another human being?

There’s been a historical lack of MH funding & support from government. Why are politicians so bloody concerned NOW? Unbelievable!

did you not plot to allow this sham of a gov to enter gov in 2017? JonAshworth

katesilverton My Trust are doing well supporting hospital & care workers with mental health issues.

Tomorrow are they going to announce that an old soldier is raising money by walking round his garden? They keep in showing their total stupidity on an hourly basis...

And getting good kids to socail distance won't help matters! endthelockdownnow EndTheLockdownuk

Lockdown may seriously affect people’s mental health . There are definitely going to be other health consequences because of covid

WHAT THE FUCK , so you're haplessly quoting the words of a GOVUK minister who's helped cause this human death catastrophe saying 'healthcare workers need support too' with no comment or assessment. GO HOME!

Well I'm still working and I've been very depressed but really I'm not blaming the NHS I'm blaming the austerity obsessed Tory party

maybe if you stopped spouting fear porn down the tele every second of the day they'd feel alot better.

JonAshworth Challenge him on 'fewer were discharged than last year' surely much fewer were admitted. Pick the specific weeks i March when hospitals were being cleared of patients ready for COVID ones.

It's no fucking wonder when they are actively trying to scare the sheeple... 👇

My sons mental health is terrible seeing as Autism_CEO Autism are closing his specialist school permanent from July 😰 SaveTheAnderson NASFailings MentalHealthAwarenessWeek

So why have teachers not been speaking to their pupils personally over phone or the video call thing zoom ?
