Robert Jenrick:
"Some people have been profoundly impacted by this".
(The most British way over saying "over 100,000 people died" ever.)
Robert Jenrick:
"There is no textbook for how to handle a pandemic like this"
(I'm pretty sure there bloody well are)
Robert Jenrick:
"There will come a time when we should learn lessons"
Robert Jenrick:
"Nobody has worked harder than the Prime Minister. I mean, the Prime Minister himself was critically ill as a result"
(Yeah, Boris catching Covid proves he worked so much harder than the nurses going to foodbanks between shifts)

Today's interview with Robert Jenrick and the one Matt Hancock did on GMB prove that all the Tory MPs have been given one simple instruction:

Under no circumstances admit to doing the wrong thing, or any responsibility for the consequences of that wrongdoing.
In both circumstances...
Matt Hancock would have looked better if he had simply told @susannareid100 & @piersmorgan that he regretted not getting the kids their meals sooners.
And Robert Jenrick would have looked better if he'd said something along the lines of "I believe we were too hopeful about how things would go, and too worried about damaging the economy our citizens have to live in."

With 100,000 Covid deaths, Journalists better mention that Boris Johnson:

Feb-
Said he wanted UK to have the loosest reaction to Coronavirus.
Skipped 5 Cobra Meetings.

Mar-
Told people to shake hands
Allowed mass crowds

May-
Denied the Stay Home order existed to save Cummings
Seriously!?
This was a #DowningStreetBriefing SPECIFICALLY on how we ended up at 100,000 Covid deaths!
None of you journalists mentioned this!?!

NONE OF YOU mentioned this!?

😄 I tweeted this last night because I expected a Twitter storm over Nissan.
Just logged on to Twitter properly... and I see everyone is having fun. So let's address some things...
1) As explained above, we damaged the supply route 70% of Nissan cars use, so now their survival depends on swallowing those costs or increasing their market share in the UK.
But their competitors in the UK will be thinking the same thing, so keep an eye on TOTAL UK car jobs.
2) A vital part of increasing their market share in the UK will be bigging up their plans for the UK with announcement like today.

The same reason some white people didn't want to take the vaccine invented by Turkish Immigrants, is why too many black people are nervous about taking the vaccine which Boris wanted to put a British flag on.
This government's vaccine nationalism is going to get people killed.
Black people's vaccine nervousness is ultimately wrong as the vaccine is safe, but given that the man who tried to plant a UK flag on it said blacks have watermelon smiles and the UK should still own Africa and suppressed the Covid Bame report for months... it's not surprising.
.@Nadine_Writes explains it far better than I can, but my key point is:

When people start getting back into work, a person's vaccination status will almost definitely be a factor.
So, black people, we cannot afford to face further discrimination. Not now.

With the damage Brexit is doing to people now, why didn't Labour challenge it for 3 years?

Too many cared more about the ideology of socialism, than making sure the pursuit of socialism didn't undermine the morals behind it, by making people poorer.
@graceblakeley @theJeremyVine
The UK had been electing mainly right-wingers to the EU Parliament since 1999, and mainly Tories to Westminster for 100 years.
i.e. our leaving automatically made the EU more socialist!
So for the UK to complain that the EU's not socialist enough, shows a lack of self-awareness.
And anyone who thought it would be easier to sell soft Brexit to Leave voters in the North East than a Second Referendum, never really tried.
This Leave voter in Darlington called even Theresa May's 'softer' Brexit "disgusting" and would rather vote again.

😍 Remember that time he told police officers to injure suspects as they're arresting them, then one killed George Floyd while arresting him, then he quoted a racist police chief to threaten the lives of people rioting against racist police?😍
#ByeByeTrump
😍 Or the time he said women should be punished for abortions but not men? 😍
#ByeByeTrump
😍 Or when he explicitly called for a ban on Muslims entering the US? 😍
