Gove up in the Commons on the ministerial code - this'll be interesting parliamentlive.tv/Event/Index/68…
Speaker has to scold two MPs for not wearing masks in the Commons. Threatens to suspend the sitting if they do not wear them.
I'm watching on telly, so can't tell which MPs he was speaking to. He was looking in the direction of the government benches. It felt for a moment like they were close to refusing to wear them - hence the threat.
On the 'let the bodies pile high' quote, Gove says: "She repeats a line from a newspaper but she ignores the fact that the PM not only instituted a second, but also a third lockdown, to keep us safe."
Rachel Reeves sounds genuinely furious.
