It's the Christmas pressure period, has always been the case. It's in the annual leave agreement section of the way forward agreement if you need official confirmation.

If you are lucky and have the right connections in your depot, you might get a week off after Xmas Day (w/c 26/12).

Its not the whole of December. Only Christmas Pressure , usually 9 th to 24th, You can have the 25th off Moya is generous to a fault.
