If this was the Blitz the PM would be saying “basically keep lights on if you have to read, maybe you’ll read a bit less, perhaps you won’t. If you’re going to have a fireworks party it’s sort of up to you if you get bombed, buy a gas mask though, if you can”.

Utterly hopeless.

Dr David Nabarro of the @WHO is absolutely raising the alarm on @SkyNews right now. Quite terrifying actually. Feel quite sick.

I think Britain is about to find out the true cost of voting in populist nationalists who think individual responsibility is an appropriate policy remedy during a global pandemic.

At least they won’t want to vote in any more of them ever again, there is that.

This is madness.

Here is the @davidnabarro interview from just now. Watch it, share it, and do whatever you can to protect yourself and your family, as no government in the grip of Desmond Swayne can possibly do the necessary. Our measures are simply not enough. #Omicron

I feel sorry for all those working in the #NHS, constantly being told how heroic they are by a Prime Minister who will do nothing to avert the calamity he says is heading squarely in their direction. It’s awful, craven posturing. #Omicron

This is the PPS to the Foreign Secretary. She has now deleted it. The people of Beaconsfield chose this to represent their interests over Dominic Grieve. Well done! 🤦🏻‍♂️
