Watching the #DailyCovidUpdate when Whitty & Vallance join Boris Johnson over the last two years, they have looked increasingly like hostage situations.
Patrick Vallance: "it is very clear that this pandemic is not over, and we are not out of it here yet... we expect there to be further variants and they could be more severe"
If Johnson is able to apologise for actually breaking the law, and get away without losing his job & being prosecuted by @metpoliceuk, there really is no point in anyone trying to hold him to account for anything anymore
Don't say I didn't tell you this was coming #r4today#PMQs
Johnson can't apologise tomorrow because that would be an admission he was an accessory in an unlawful act, in which case he would have to resign (surely)
@LBC Boris Johnson is hiding in a fridge, so he's sending Michael Ellis MP (the paymaster general) to answer questions about whether the Crime Minister was at a party in his own garden.
And if you think Sue Gray is truly independent and would ever publish a report calling for the resignation of the #CrimeMinister, I've got some Turkish PPE from a Tory donor to sell you.
