He's 'taking to the podium'
They usually leak what he's going to talk about but I've checked on Sky etc and all I've found so far is something about Vit. D

I think he will be talking about Colin and Cuthbert.

I didnt know the Indian variant was a "variant of concern" I thought it was a "variant of interest"?

starbrightstarlight8888 · 20/04/2021 12:22

I think the football may get mentioned. There was something on the news this morning saying something about the Government getting involved in the new Super League discussions.

To be honest, a discussion about caterpillar cakes would be hugely more interesting that most of the rubbish he spews. Mmm cake! Grin

Apparently there is not yet enough data to classify it as a 'variant of concern'. But it seems it's not 'interesting' enough to put India on the red list til Friday Confused

@Puddington

He "styles" his hair that way on purpose to look like a harmless eccentric rather than a calculating bastard.
😆

He is quite clearly balding and somehow thinks having a haystack on his head is a better look.

Thankfully India have such strict entry requirements in place since March 2020 that there is likely to be very few people “rushing home” between now and Friday. Only Indian passport holders, OCI holders, medical visa or business visa holders can travel. Given the schools are back, I imagine the number of people there currently that will try to come back quickly is quite low

@Bluesheep8

Yes, you could say leaving the borders open until Friday will give us a tonne more data to work with. I do not understand why they couldn't red list them today.

He's looking rough now ...

10m with second vaccinations done?

BlessedDD · 20/04/2021 12:31

Probably wants to show us his new haircut

eddiemairswife · 20/04/2021 12:41

Perhaps Carrie will do a Delilah and shave it while he is sleeping.

Girlmama3 · 20/04/2021 13:32

I think he just needs to use his new room again to justify the cost.

The questions from members of the public have been selected. The first will be from "Dave of Chipping Norton" and is "What are you doing to sort out some government wonga for my mate Lex?"

Crowsaregreat · 20/04/2021 14:39

It's got to be government corruption, hasn't it?

@likeamillpond

I did read somewhere about there being 6 hour delays at airports. And that's at thewell organised airports! God only knows what it'll be like at any airport that's a bit small and disorganised.

I do t think I'll go abroad this year.
Can't be doing with that either end of the holiday Blush

I had to fly longhaul for an urgent family matter last week and returned yesterday. Heathrow was totally empty both ways. Very short security lines and virtually zero wait at immigration.

I’m sure that could change over the summer, especially for shorter trips with Ryanair and the like. At the moment it’s not even permitted to go on holiday abroad. But for the moment at least it is fine.

CrunchyCarrot · 20/04/2021 14:59

Probably going to warn us all not to lose sight of the target as we are so close now, don't mess it up!

Staffy1 · 20/04/2021 15:06

How to look like you've been dragged through a bush backwards without even trying.

ConstantlyChanging · 20/04/2021 15:34

I’d love to replace his shampoo with hair removal cream.

I dread to think what "Annoyed", of Tunbridge Wells, will think of the India double mutant situation.
