Gosh he is struggling. Forgot the name of one of the advisers.

He’s probably exhausted

Single2catsand1daughter · 21/04/2020 17:08

Exactly what I was thinking.

ExclamationPerfume · 21/04/2020 17:08

It's hard when you are lying through your teeth.

SpringBlossomIsBeautiful · 21/04/2020 17:08

Completely agree. Sounds really nervous & unsure & also setting us up for extended lockdown

Teddypops · 21/04/2020 17:08

He does look knackered!

Why is he saying that they’re only now working with uk manufacturers of ppi? Surely this was something that has been possible from the start?

CurtainWitcher · 21/04/2020 17:09

He sounds even less confident than usual.

Making me nervous!

Skybluepink123 · 21/04/2020 17:10

Just looked at his eyes, you’re right he does look exhausted.

Patterjack · 21/04/2020 17:10

I've probably missed this being explained but why is the number of deaths lower on a Monday and then higher again by a Tuesday?

vera99 · 21/04/2020 17:10

The unrelenting nature of this crisis at the heart of government must be off the scale of extreme. I've no time for Boris and most of his bunch but Matt seems to be a good guy trying his hardest in difficult times.

mrsnw · 21/04/2020 17:11

Where is all this money coming from? Yes, he sounds very nervous today.

Skybluepink123 · 21/04/2020 17:11

Oxford Project vaccine trials from Thursday. That’s really encouraging.

CurtainWitcher · 21/04/2020 17:11

He's always having to refer to his notes.
I don't trust Rishi Sunak, but he's a much for convincing speaker.

Teddypops · 21/04/2020 17:12

Patterjack the reporting is more difficult over the weekend apparently so they catch up on a Tuesday

OP posts:
TartanTexan · 21/04/2020 17:12

I always wonder what he knows we don’t - some have a better poker face than others.

Promising on vaccine/s.

Skybluepink123 · 21/04/2020 17:12

Professor Van Tam always makes me nervous!

Patterjack · 21/04/2020 17:12

Thank you!

CurtainWitcher · 21/04/2020 17:14

Van Tam's no Chris Whitty when it comes to presenting.

mrsnw · 21/04/2020 17:17

Where is Whitty? I know it’s his birthday but haven’t seen him for a while.

findumdum1 · 21/04/2020 17:20

I know this is mean but I am sick of the sight of Laura Kuensberg. Are there no other journalists in the UK?

vera99 · 21/04/2020 17:20

@mrsnw sounds like you are stalking him !

monkeytennis97 · 21/04/2020 17:22

Hancock hasn't shaved...he looks very nervous

mrsnw · 21/04/2020 17:22

Ok I’ve been found out!

findumdum1 · 21/04/2020 17:23

Sit back Peston and stop shouting!

loobyloo1234 · 21/04/2020 17:24

Very twitchy. Probably pulling all nighters in fairness (which he should be)
