The U.K. government saw before its eyes what was happening in Italy. It chose to do nothing. Boris Johnson orders a lockdown now, with weeks of delay. This is an astonishing failure of leadership. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
What were the U.K. chief scientists doing when the consequences of the new Coronavirus in other parts of Europe were so evident? Why were they not shouting from the rooftop? Did they give the wrong advice - or did they fail to speak truth to power and to the public?
My thoughts go to my many friends in the U.K. 🇬🇧 - a country I love and where I spent many wonderful years. You will get through this, just as us in Italy 🇮🇹 are doing. Even under a lockdown, keep calm and carry on - as you have taught so well to the rest of the world. (ENDS)

La decisione di Conte di ieri è assolutamente dirompente. Al netto delle valutazioni scientifiche, spero il governo abbia ragionato con attenzione su dettagli e attuabilità. L’ultima cosa di cui abbiamo bisogno sono filiere essenziali interrotte per ragioni burocratiche 1/3
Abbiamo deciso di rafforzare il lockdown. Ma perché non ci sono progressi su altre questioni che gli scienziati dicono essere essenziali?
- La politica dei tamponi
- Il tracing degli infetti
- L’isolamento non in famiglia dei contagiati non gravi
- La gestione degli ospedali 2/3
L’emergenza non può impedirci di fare domande. La limitata esperienza di gran parte del governo ci impone di essere scettici. Conte deve essere molto più trasparente. In questo momento non può bastare una diretta Facebook in notturna 3/3

As I scroll Twitter from my flat in Milan, I still see a lot of complacency around the world. Don't go out unless you have to. And when you do, keep some distance from others. The earlier you start, the less pressure on your healthcare system, the fewer the deaths. #COVID2019
Governments will take time to take effective measures. They will try to balance different interests, as they need to keep the economy going. They'll make mistakes. But with some simple steps you can make a real difference for yourself, your beloved ones, your country. #COVID2019
Of course, we can't cut ourselves off from the world. Some of you can't work from home. Some of you will have kids they have to take out for a walk. You will all need to buy food. But you can all reduce you social lives. Do it sooner rather than later. #COVID2019

Il MES è uno strumento essenziale per il buon funzionamento dell’euro. La questione di fondo è se l’Italia vuole continuare a far parte della moneta unica. Il mio commento per Affari e Finanza di @repubblica. #MES
Il MES supera il principio - molto caro all’ortodossia tedesca - che non ci possano essere salvataggi nella zona euro. Ed è la base del ‘whatever it takes’ della BCE che ha messo fine alla crisi dell’euro. Davvero vogliamo abolirlo? (2)
La riforma del MES introduce delle modifiche - alcune volute dall’Italia, altre da Germania e Olanda. Stare nell’eurozona richiede dei compromessi. Se non se ne vogliono, allora bisogna uscire dall’euro, con tutte le conseguenze del caso. #MES (3)

How it is possible that @BorisJohnson is being investigated in the USA for potentially being compromised but nobody in the United Kingdom including the #bbcqt #media #Police have investigated this #crime #Brexit the #GeneralElection is days away #ReleaseTheRussianReport
The intrigue over a 'buried' probe into Russian spying deepened last night amid claims in security circles that it contains references to blackmail fears concerning Boris Johnson. #ReleaseTheRussianReport
One expert witness, who gave evidence to the ISC inquiry, has claimed privately to friends that he believes Boris Johnson was 'compromised' by a Russian businessman on a foreign trip in 2016
This is getting crazier 😱 #ReleaseTheRussianReport #GeneralElection2019 #GetJohnsonGone

Johnson’s only been speaking for a couple of minutes and already I’m desperate to switch off.
Even now, ‘taking back control of our laws, borders and money’. NI will be subject to the ECJ, we’re going to pay the EU £39 billion and he’s literally just agreed to put up a customs border in his own country
Take a step back for a moment and consider just how outrageous it is that MPs are having to offer definitive judgement on country’s most important international treaty in decades, which could clobber jobs, the Union and our economy, less than 48 hours after it was even published

Boris Johnson is/was advised by Steve BANNON – Trump’s campaign manager & VP of the notorious, now-shuttered electioneering firm Cambridge Analytica, which he co-founded in 2014 w/ hedge fund billionaire Robert Mercer, who also backed the Breitbart sites.
bylinetimes.com/2019/06/12/bor…
📌Johnson and Bannon became friends when Johnson was still Foreign Secretary and Bannon was still in the White House in early 2017.

📌They have been in contact ever since and the fruits of this friendship have been evident for some time
