So let me get this right.

Sunday was always an odd day for a #COVID19 announcement

Journalists did ask #Johnson why it had to be #Sunday.

He responded that the data wasn't all available, but ONCE it was, he wanted to move fast.

Details were crucial.

Except.... 1/3
He pre recorded the announcement, so no last-minute details were added.

Although data was relevant, he made no effort to align with the rest of the UK nations.

And managed to add all sorts of confusion about which industries in which way with which transport.

2/3
As I've said since Day One.

People who make bad decisions continue to make bad decisions. Then they create even worse outcomes as they cover up their mistakes instead of correcting them, more people die.

#Johnson is the walking, poorly judged talking case study of this point.
