The @POLITICOEurope walkthrough of the schools timeline is quite the read.

Government communication has been so shambolic for the past year that I don’t know if this means we will be sending the kids to school tomorrow or if they will be closed for the next month.

The words of a liar - no prizes for guessing which - a few days after the 2016 referendum. A liar now being lionised by the lying newspapers who helped him ‘win’ in making the country weaker and poorer and strangling business with red tape.

@Joanna_il_warda I had a mulled wine at 9:30 this morning, and then just snuck in a quick disco nap xx

@eatlikeagirl bloody hell!! I am lost for words. Hope you're managing to keep your spirits up!

I genuinely don’t understand the journey from Thatcherite true believer in markets to advocate of North Korean style self sufficiency that some Conservatives seem to have taken. It’s astonishing.

To continue to pursue this fringe agenda at the height of a pandemic is the most serious abrogation of responsibility I can imagine, and the Tory party as a whole should be completely ashamed of themselves. And as a country we must hold them to account.

[Mike Smith @splatEric]

I always knew then end of this year was going to be rough with the expected brinkmanship and accompanying noise that comes with it. But it’s still horrible. I hope that cooler heads prevail and an appropriate deal is reached with the EU.
