Should We Skip Christmas to Avoid a COVID Spike Next Year?

Fiona Bruce Presents an Hour of Topical Debate

With David Davis MP, Andy Burnham, Chika Russell, Madeline Grant, and Benjamin

As the UK faces a surge in COVID-19 cases, the question of whether to cancel Christmas has been raised. While some argue that it is necessary to avoid a further spike in infections, others believe that the economic and social consequences of such a move would be too great.

In this upcoming news article, Fiona Bruce will present an hour of topical debate on the issue, featuring a panel of experts from various backgrounds. David Davis MP, the former Brexit Secretary, will argue in favor of skipping Christmas, while Andy Burnham, the Mayor of Greater Manchester, will present the case against. Chika Russell, a public health expert, Madeline Grant, a social scientist, and Benjamin, a father of three, will also share their perspectives.

The debate will explore the potential consequences of both canceling and going ahead with Christmas, considering both the public health and economic implications. It will also provide a platform for the public to voice their opinions on this controversial issue.

"This is a complex and difficult decision," said Fiona Bruce. "There are strong arguments on both sides, and it is important that we have a thorough and informed debate before making a decision." The debate will be broadcast live on BBC One on December 10th at 9pm.
