listening now @bbc5live only just back to working weddings after 14 months no income and weddings are still so HEAVILY restricted - difficult to stomach when you see all the football fans & Royal Ascot #whataboutweddings
It’s good to see @DrHilaryJones & @lorraine calling out @10DowningStreet for their hypocritical behaviour on weddings. So many ‘pilot’ events but friends and family can’t have an outside standing drink reception or a little dance. Despite testing #whataboutweddings@BorisJohnson
Congratulations to the weddings sector for getting this far. Today we'd hoped and planned for a different kind of reopening, and despite the odds, challenges and disparity, businesses have turned it around. In England & Wales today we join Scotland & NI and open to more than 30.
Our #weddingstaskforce Spokesperson @SarahHaywood was back with @JuliaHB1 on @talkRADIO this morning continuing to highlight the disparity between weddings and other activities. They also discussed the UK’s draconian marriage laws which date back to 1836!
This is just so insulting & utterly insensitive to all the couples compromising their wedding plans or postponing their much longed for dates. To all the business that are desperately trying to survive. How can this be allowed? #whataboutweddings@BorisJohnson @neil_parish
The continued inconsistency and penalising of the wedding sector beggars belief. @BorisJohnson@MattHancock you owe thousands of couples and businesses an explanation at the very least #whataboutweddings
So football can go ahead when there is no way to control crowds of people gathering but a dad can’t walk their daughter down the aisle without a mask on in a controlled covid secure venue? ABSOLUTELY LUDICROUS @BorisJohnson@MattHancock#whataboutweddings
So @BorisJohnson I've had to postpone my wedding from next Saturday to October as I'm not allowed to mix with my family & friends but this is ok??? @Keir_Starmer will you stand up for weddings #whataboutweddings
The promised "exponential" rise in cases is now so obviously not exponential that surely even Imperial College must have noticed. Back to primary school for Ferguson and friends. https://t.co/NFZFUhpUXN
It wasn't data after-all. We're now restricted until more are vaccinated. Then what? Will we be told a booster is needed for those vaccinated at the start? And a few sectors bear the brunt whilst the PM parties and there's dancing and partying at the races and football fan zones.
Difficult to see this when I had a meeting yesterday about having to significantly reduce the number of people at my wedding due to social distancing rules. Don't even mention the word dancefloor. How is this 👇 ok?? #whataboutweddings
Still finding it strange not to be working on saturdays
Still no weekend wedding until August.
We need all restrictions lifted so couples can book their wedding with confidence.
