The uni situation is a weird one. Government telling them all to go back and now a lot of them have been quarantined to their halls of residence and physically being unable to leave due to security on the front doors while at the same time telling them they can't have food delivered. Some also being told they may now be unable to go home over Christmas and will be forced to stay locked up in halls.

I don't get that. Have to wonder if it was a case of making sure the unis and student accommodation got their money for the year and then deal with the chaos after regardless. At least I got a refund for my Jimmy Carr tickets when that got cancelled :rofl :rofl
