@easyJet hi, what’s going on at Amsterdam Schipol flight 7007 - stuck on the plane for an hour and a half

[kemp20 @kemp205]

@Mr_Nic_HT thanks for posting

[kemp20 @kemp205]

@Mr_Nic_HT @EYAlliance have you seen this?

[kemp20 @kemp205]

@VOC_ORG Young person wants to continue previous/existing arrangements - one parent opposing this. Can you please help?

[kemp20 @kemp205]

@DHSCgovuk or anyone else - regarding children moving between households of separated parents - child under 18 in first lockdown but over 18 now - can previous/existing arrangements with moving between households continue #familylaw #lockdown #separatedparents

[kemp20 @kemp205]

So Downing Street have ‘clarified’ that the £60m is still on the table according to @BBCNews - did Johnson ‘misspeak’ yet again then??

[kemp20 @kemp205]

@ReicherStephen @SolihullNasuwt Noticed the same thing. He used to have integrity but that’s sadly waned. Bowed to politic pressure.

[kemp20 @kemp205]

If only that was literal rather than metaphorical 😡

[Mandy Kay @Mandoline_Blue]

@karmachochi Yes, it's obvious. Johnson wriggling around like a fish on a hook.

[Dino Sofos @dinosofos]

Quite a moment as Andy Burnham is shown the government’s £22 million offer on live TV.

[kemp20 @kemp205]

Johnson repeatedly said at press briefing they couldn’t give £60m to Greater Manchester as it wouldn’t be fair to Liverpool/Lancashire. Why did they offer it earlier today then? Either it wasn’t fair then (but they didn’t care) or it was fair then (so why isn’t it fair now?)

[kemp20 @kemp205]

Eat out to help out cost £522m apparently. Clearly it would be ‘unfair’ to support the people of Manchester with £65m. Or even £60m.

[kemp20 @kemp205]

He doesn’t give a flying fuck presumably. Used to getting away with petty, punitive behaviour with no comeback, no repercussions. And the £60m has been removed from the table; that’s what I understand from it

[(((Dan Hodges))) @DPJHodges]

I simply cannot understand what Boris thought he was going to achieve with that press conference. If the £60m is still on the table, why not just say so. Why leave the impression you’ve just deliberately shafted every man, woman and child in Greater Manchester.

[kemp20 @kemp205]

Nandy: "We were told £22m is for test and trace, not a single extra penny promised to help businesses & minimum-wage workers. The government appears to be waging war on the people of Greater Manchester. I grew up under Thatcher but I've honestly never seen anything like this."

[kemp20 @kemp205]

@ZoeJardiniere @IsntTony105 That’s my understanding too. Absolutely appalling 😡

[kemp20 @kemp205]

@Marie32123495 @liebshen15 @AndyBurnhamGM Agreed ☹️

[kemp20 @kemp205]

Shouting at press briefing as usual. Seems govt offered G Manchester 60m support, G Manchester said they need 5m more, govt said no, is imposing restrictions anyway and *withdrawing* the 60m. Seems like a punishment to @AndyBurnhamGM for standing up to the government. Appalling

[kemp20 @kemp205]

@Footyy365 Brilliant!

‘The dispute was due to be played out in court. It would have meant a public examination of the accuracy & speed of the testing system at a time when it has come under serious criticism’.
