Why are Chris Whitty and Patrick Valance wearing matching outfits?

?

Do you mean suits?

Boring ties.

It's green tie day!

Same suits, shirts and ties. Like a uniform.

Can I just say, I LOVE Chris Witty. He's such a gentle, intelligent man and he's had so much crap on social media about the way he looks.
Yet day after day, he's up there reassuring us.

LOVE YOU CHRIS!

Raab's not in a green tie.

Actually, Chris Whitty's shirt is better and the suit is darker.

But why do they both wear the same , boring tie?

Because they are intellectual men who get up, pick the nearest outfit from a rack of similar items, and get on with going to work to save the country. They are not Z list celebrities or TV presenters who have nothing better to do than think about their image.

DH is very much like this too, although not involved in this crisis as health is not his area of expertise

I just wondered what the significance is of the green ties!

Far too much of a coincidence that a) they both have the same tie and b) that they both decided to wear them on the same day.

Why does it matter ? I'm sure there not calling each other before to check

I don't know if it has any significance. That's what I'm asking!

It's annoying me that Dominic Raab's tie isn't straight 🤣🤣

It's a secret code for the Illuminati and our reptilian overlords.

Obviously.

I thought it was maybe a colour in solidarity with Carers, or something.

Who cares? I'm more interested in what they are communicating to us.

If they were female would you make this sort of comment OP? They are not there to have their clothing commented on. They are focused on saving lives.

Unfortunately women's clothing comes under a lot more scrutiny.

So, no one knows of there's a significance?

I agree! I love Chris Whitty. The way he speaks and explains things, I love seeing him up there

Maybe this should be in Style and Beauty.

Me too- he's so gentle and kind and reassuring. Theres also nothing wrong with the way he looks- he looks like any other 50 something guy.

I also love Chris Whitty! He comes across as one of those people that you can believe in what they are saying rather than feeling fobbed off. His background and qualifications are also pretty amazing. I also like it when Sir Patrick is the one going through the statistics and graphs.

They usually avoid blue or red ties as those look party political. It needs to be sombre, otherwise people would say it’s inappropriate. Black would be seen as too morbid. It doesn’t leave much choice...

We wondered if it was some sort of code too.

Big Chris Whitty fan. Lovely kind and reassuring voice.

Sir Patrick is very distinguished. I read Chris Whitty was number one on Grazia chart of lust! He gets my vote anyday, as per PPs; appears a gentle and intelligent man whose doing his best for the country daily. Bet him and Sir P never get a day off.

Ah I do enjoy the daily briefings when Chris Whitty and Patrick Vallance are involved. They both seem very genuine and are clearly such intelligent men.

As for the ties, I have no idea. Hardly think they're comparing outfit choices beforehand
