I only watch it to see Whitty carefully and skilfully rip him to bit as he stands and watchers totally oblivious to it.

The last presser I watched with Johnson in it was when Whitty was asked if the (then new) tier system would work, way back in Autumn.
"Oh no" he answered, "we don't expect it to work!"
I paraphrase, but not by much.

Can we have that UCL professor being interviewed for our next prime minister! Ripped the government’s handling to shreds.

Yes, I missed the PM show today because I misjudged the wind direction and only saw her. Operational Researchers are smart cookies, you see!
It sounds as though getting my head kicked in by the wind in a rainstorm in the dark may have been preferable to seeing the PM speech, though!

I don't know if it's just me but I hate to see the word ''surpass'' to register the ever-increasing death toll. ''Exceed'' sounds like it's less of a target that's been achieved.
Anyhow, something marginally positive: the active rate of infection in Lewisham is now down to its lowest level since Boxing Day.

Wonder if Chris Whitty's memoirs are available to pre-order ...
If they are I can think of a few who will be busy buying up all they can find.
Doctors dignified response to today’s news. Somehow I can’t see N10 following it.

BBC Parliament currently showing questioning of the DVLA Chief Exec about the outbreaks there. The video conference camera is looking up her nose while she's literally hand-waving, grinning and offering written answers in reply to almost every question.

So after saying they would learn from their mistakes, and the fact that our track and trace system never really got off the ground, they now seem to already be going the wrong way. This sounds like it could have been a real benefit not just for covid but other diseases.

Does "redcacted" mean redacting them by spreading caca on the pages he doesn't like?
Is that's what he's been doing with the scientific reports he's given?
