Rejected petition Allow extended households (bubbles) to still meet during local lockdowns

As we all know the first lockdown was such a strain on people’s mental health and the introduction of having a bubble was so helpful for so many people. Now that local lockdowns are in place it has taken that away from people forcing us to be isolated from those we love. If pubs are allowed to remain open with many strangers in a confined space then there should be no reason why extended households can’t stand. It is inhumane to keep people away from their loved ones.
