I've been struggling to think of anything to put into #TheWeekInTory. Quiet, innit?
Only kidding. It's an absolute casserole. This is the 3rd of these in 6 days, and is almost certainly already out of date.
Regardless, this is my life now, and I'm taking it out on you...

1. Boris Johnson became the third successive Tory Prime Minister to have their career destroyed by Boris Johnson
2. Always stickers for tradition, the Tories first promised, and then proved completely incapable of Getting Exit Done

3. This all began with the resignation of Oliver Dowden, the Minister Without Portfolio
4. After 43 resignations in 24 hours, we ended up having portfolios without ministers, including the govt’s flagship Levelling Up Dept, which was, irony of ironies, absolutely flattened

Finally! #GlobalBritain IS #WorldBeating at something: fraud. 😬🇬🇧
Criminals scammed UK banking customers out of £1.3BILLION in 2021: fraud accounted for 39% of all crime in 2020-21 (ONS). Globally, the UK now has the worst overall problem with online fraud relative to its size.

The average loss per victim of investment fraud last year was more than £14,000.
£77MILLION was lost to scammers posing as employees from utility companies, #HMRC, the #NHS or other official bodies using the threat of fictitious fines or outstanding debts to extract payments.

UK Finance warns that criminals research their targets, using information gathered from social media profiles, data breaches & previous scams - fake text messages urging us to register for energy help schemes, money off our shopping or pay for missed parcel deliveries etc
#PrimeMinister do you really understand the seriousness & gravity of what you’ve done?
You have today signed the unnecessary death warrants of 1000s of innocent ppl & consigned many 1000s of others to long term debilitating illness.🧵

2-Despite the determination to use a #RideTheWave analogy…
THIS IS NOT A GAME!
The lives (& avoidable deaths) of ordinary people may not bother you #PrimeMinister but they do bother my #NHS colleagues & I, & it pains us not to be able to care for people appropriately & safely.

3-The #NHS is NOT “in danger of being overwhelmed”
IT IS OVERWHELMED RIGHT NOW!
How anyone w/ even an iota of understanding of healthcare can’t see, that for ppl having an MI or other v serious event the need to make their own way to 🏥 is both UNSAFE & UNACCEPTABLE!

There are many layers to the #Covid19UK human catastrophe but IMO it’s all DELIBERATE @mrjamesob
Not even @BorisJohnson is so ignorant that he can’t understand the seriousness of what is currently unfolding.
The crux is - HE WANTS IT TO HAPPEN!

If you were looking for the perfect foil for the #BrexitShambles & #NHSPrivatisation in one fell swoop AND you wanted to divert attention from the cronyism & corruption being uncovered every single day….you’d create as much chaos, fear & desperation as possible….

You’d allow #COVIDDisinformation to run riot, including from the @UKHSA (& conveniently replace #PHE), whilst churning out a #COVIDisOver narrative through a compliant media.

1/ #JohnsonAndJavid - a grim tale of ego & ambition driven ideology combined w/ lethal ignorance & #WorldBeating serial incompetence. @MattHancock was just the warm up act.
#Covid19UK is a grotesque & callous population “cull” without care or compassion for those most affected.

2/ #WilfulNegligence no longer adequately describes their modus operandi.
Everything about this phase is DELIBERATE…PLANNED…CALCULATED.

3/ Every life lost to or affected by #COVID19 in this #3rdWave is in the “reasonable collateral damage” group, chosen by the most brutal & self-serving government of my lifetime.

1) Morning @GavinWilliamson, just reading the update from @PHE_uk @GOVUK below ⬇️.

2) Wondering how this particular bit of advice ⬇️ will play out in schools & early years settings after #Easter?
Crowded poorly ventilated classrooms w/ up to 30 kids from different households are the very essence of HIGH RISK spaces. Dining rooms/PE halls could even be worse!

3) If I’ve understood it correctly anywhere in the RED AREAS needs extra attention?
INDOORS ✅
HIGH OCCUPANCY ✅
SILENT, SPEAKING, SHOUTING, SINGING, PHYSICAL EXERTION ✅
POORLY VENTILATED ✅
& NO FACE COVERINGS ⬆️ THE RISK

#PrimeMinister, please watch this @BBCNewsnight clip.
Even as someone who’s worked as a dr throughout the #pandemic & seen #COVID19 up close, I found it deeply shocking & disturbing. 1/

This isn’t a real #Lockdown #PrimeMinister !The roads are busy, schools have far more “key worker” kids than in Mar & #earlyyears settings are open “as normal”.
In my local #Medicentre & @PostOffice ,9/12 in, #masks ARE OPTIONAL! A place countless people go, MASKS R OPTIONAL! 2/

These are today’s numbers #PrimeMinister, EVERY case, admission or death is a person with family & friends.
Our #NHS 💙is on its knees, staff are sick & exhausted, taking to social media for help. We are doing our very best but things are really bad.
REALLY BAD! @BorisJohnson

My daughter's class (London): teacher + at least 12 kids + nearly every member of those 12 families tested positive, including all of mine. At least 4 adults have been hospitalised. (Rant alert at the end of the thread) 1/
We weren't told to isolate until 5 days after schools broke-up, because test results for 1st child with symptoms took 4 days to arrive. 2/
Took 6 days for my test results to arrive, 5 days for the rest of my family. Impossible to follow up, 119 system has no track record of tests. Still no idea what the point of the call centre is. #trackandtrace call further delayed by 1 day. 3/
When the Nazis invaded Poland they took control of the media to pump hate propaganda, stripped people of their freedom, looted the country's reserves, attacked the judicial system, farms, the arts, libraries, universities & neighbouring countries.
No sorry that's #ToryBritain.
