Ruling politicians may be afraid of riots in the streets if Christmas is getting canceled. It's similar in various European countries.

@helenS Thinking it buys them a little more time.
Trouble is if anyone they meet actually contracts coronavirus as a result of their meeting.......

@helenS but overwhelming all polls recently carried out in the UK show majority support for lockdown over Christmas

@SW-User I believe politicians tend to think badly of citizens. In fact I believe many of them disdain citizens/their voters.
