I would say testing staff is a must, you know who can/can't work, you can also send sick staff home to recover.

Better performance than his last effort from Hancock.

Don't forget the lies.
Fudging the testing figures so they present a wholly dismal picture instead of the disastrously dismal truth.
Lying about missing an email from the EU. As if that's all they did, send an email. This lie was after the PM's official spokesman confirmed they would not be taking part in a joint EU purchase plan for equipment because we are not in the EU and would go our own way.
Domestic manufacturers of ventilators selling their stock overseas as the government declined their offer of supply.
The same with the supply of necessary chemical components (reagents) for testing.
Flowery words and constant promises of jam tomorrow/next week /next month. All the while sitting on their hands.
This government is a disgrace.
I feel it is more than a little to do with the centuries old ingrained class system we have.
Why help the proles.?

I can’t bear to watch, so save me the pain. Has he given any straight answers?

Another QT guest, the Archbishop of York, asked Hancock why he hadn't done what Kitchener did and get an army logistics officer to get the job done.
"We have," said Hancock. "Brigadier Phil Prosser."
Good answer, the guy's on a roll.
Prosser is quoted in this story which did the rounds a few days ago.

He's not on Roll, he knows the name of a guy in the top team. Well done Matt have a lollipop.
The archbishop is on the better roll when he advised Hancock to
'Promise less, deliver more'.
Now that's a slogan.
Just a shame this it at fundamental odds with Tory behaviour.

I'd of prefered Francoise who I'm sure is somewhere on a beach fighting this virus single-handed.

Cracking a solo.
We haven't seen much of the Home Secretary, shouldn't she be front and centre in all of this?

It's part of the NHS ICS (integrated care systems) initiative. I think it's something they're doing across the board but obviously I only have experience of it from a pathology point of view. Basically they've divided the country up into regions, or 'networks', and adopting a 'hub and spoke' model, with one main 'hub' lab per region doing the bulk of the work, but each hospital maintaining a downsized 'spoke' lab dealing with acute and urgent samples. There's also planned changes to management and staffing structures, which is where I think they're planning to make most of the cost savings.
It's all based on the Carter report, Lord Carter being amongst other things, chair of the board of HSL, provider of private pathology services to the NHS...
