Lord Bethell in the House of Lords last night was practicing the handbrake turn that will be needed later this week from either Matt Hancock or Boris Johnson. If it's Hancock, it's another move closer to the exit.
"We have... changed the emphasis of our communications and our plans to put human contact tracing at the beginning of our plans and to regard the app as something that will come later in support.
“One of the criteria of success is to learn from the pilot, which takes an early version of the app and hopes to develop learnings from it; we now have two or three. One of them, which I have mentioned, is that it is probably a mistake to launch an app before you have got the public used to the idea of tracing. As I mentioned in an earlier answer, that is something we have taken on board.
“When it comes to launching the test and tracing programme, we will begin with the tracing, not with the App.”
