Brewery news

Competence, not Cummings, is the issue now.

Matt Hancock, who put his 'protective ring' so effectively round the UK's care homes ('protective ring' on Google search usually comes up with a plastic part to seal a patient's connection to a stoma bag), leads an app which is still being explained to the people of the Isle of Wight (video below released on Friday - "this is not a scientific measuring tool", yet it could put you in isolation for 14 days), a test and trace service split between commercial call centre operators, "NHS Professionals" and Public Health England (surely a world-beating trio), and an NHS that now can't even count tests on a daily basis.

Priti Patel has been bounced into a plan to quarantine visitors to the UK that fewer and fewer people believe is worth the hassle, and faces louder and louder rumblings of a Tory revolt - perhaps a lightning conductor for the anti-Cummings lobby. Michael Gove doesn't know how many 'border agents' we'll need by next year, but says we can train them online. Even Dishy Rishi is beginning a tap-dance on how he'll turn off the free-flowing tap of Government support he so easily turned on. From Monday, don't expect full details from Gavin Williamson on the English schools that are/aren't back in operation.
