@GreenShoggoth@LeftieStats If Green's stood against him it would make them complicit in his ridiculous strategy. This is not business as usual. Some commentators are saying that there will have to be a second one later in the year when his financial wrong-doing forces him to stand down. We have to wait.
@EmmaRaducanu@British_Airways@british_airways behaved horribly with their staff in the pandemic. And thousands of them continue to feel bitter and betrayed by a company they once loved. Not sure they do your own image much good. 😥
@YvetteCooperMP BA flying three flights a day full of holiday makers to Dubai (and other places with relaxed restrictions). Passengers should need to prove they are travelling on business. Plus people coming from South Africa via Dubai in defiance of ban. Info from BA staff.
Hope you enjoyed the wake-up call this morning @BorisJohnson. Polluting cars and vans are responsible for around one-fifth of carbon emissions in the UK - it’s time you phase out new polluting vehicles by 2030. #FastTrackTo2030 https://t.co/XrK4tveFmq

@GeorgeMonbiot @BBCCountryfile Get that sheep maybe disaster in Wales but they have created one of most species rich habitats in planet on South Downs. Isnt it more complex than you make out?!
Hats off to anyone who has gone through this thought process:
I'm allowed to go to the seaside.

@mrredrunner100 @homeworkingclub Nor have I, so I share your suspicion. I hope its wrong but I was just responding to the glib feel of your first tweet!!
@homeworkingclub @mrredrunner100 Yes and five members of Sage breaking ranks and saying its too soon. I.e.,suggests Boris and co are ignoring their advice. #secondwave
@mrredrunner100 Its a phased process not a light switch. Apparently R value in Brighton near me is 1.75. I hope I am wrong but this feels like a dangerous experiment. I just hope it turns out ok.
