Intriguing choice of muzak while waiting for Michael Gove to unveil lessons form the pandemic.... may feel obliged to live tweet... (there was applause at one stage...) can you really be this late for an online speech? Maybe Lindsay Hoyle has summoned him?
v interesting that this is being hosted by Smarter Govt Commission (but smart does not extend to being on time..). Nick Herbert refers to bold Ditchley speech last year (I thought it was a bit of a non-event..) . Yippee Q and A...
Gove - opening - this is one of those times when need for reform more evident.. made strengths and weaknesses made more vivid... Lots of wartime parallels here (Johnson as Attlee??? new one that)

Some thoughts on the Cameron/Greensill/Crothers affair.. we have focussed a lot on ministers and civil servants. The rules clearly need tightening up - but at least there is a semblance of rules - but there is a grey area.

First haircut since September.. no holidays to talk about so we talked about #brexit and #covid.
On #brexit apparently hairdressers - or mine at least - gets all his supplies from the EU. just restocked to reopen. prices have doubled since he last ordered.. puts it down to #brexit.. even if these are teething costs -- will they go back down?
frustration that the local council @RBKC slow and bureaucratic in processing loans.. systems not talking to each other. big burdens on small business of reapplying even where they know businesses have been shut. Money coming after needed.
