In other news… The Cabinet Secretary is appearing at a special Covid Inquiry hearing today. And this ⬇️ is essential reading if you want to remember why it matters.
As I write, this is at risk of being MASSIVELY overshadowed by events. But cabinet secretary Simon Case is meant to give evidence to #covidinquiry Thursday. Should have been last year but he was sick and only returned to work in January. Another long 🧵(sorry).

Obsessed with Sophie Raworth being asked if she is "A Boogie wit da Hoodie fan" on the 10 o'clock news. #BBCNews

Clarification on Assange ruling. He has been granted leave to appeal on three counts but not on the issue of “political opinions” as he hoped. The case will be reviewed again on may 20th.
