Did Matt Hancock just completely ignore the question of how many people have been contact-traced since the system launched? #DailyBriefingUK
Next journalist repeats the question - gets a lot of waffle back. Spoiler: They. Don’t. Know.
This is a really long-winded way of avoiding the question. #DailyBriefingUK
It's rare that a government statement can be directly translated to "I've got a nanny. F**k off!"

Good question, btw, @Peston.
The comments below that video are so massively varied:
Half the comments think I'm praising Hancock for shutting @peston down.
The other half knows that I'm pointing out that "Look how privileged I am with my live-in nanny. How DARE you question me, peasant!" isn't a good look.

1⃣ Boris Johnson "We locked down earlier in our curve than Italy" LIAR!
We locked down at 336 recorded deaths. Italy locked down Lodi at TWO deaths.
2⃣ The lockdown ISN'T SUPPOSED to coincide with the peak. It's supposed to be BEFORE to keep the peak low!

For the record, If you simply google coronavirus deaths + name of country, the figures it gives you are much higher than the deaths recorded at the time. So I've gone with the latter and used news article from the time, because that's the information the government had to act on.
We are determined to overcome those challenges that have been knotty and infuriating @BorisJohnson addressing nation on #PPEforNHS #Testingmethods2020 #COVID19 
"We have passed the peak and on the downward slope."
Will be setting out comprehensive plan next week on economy, schools and work.
