The Tories appear to be out on the attack today. Why would they be feeling so thin-skinned?

From the man who told me to ‘show some guts’ for warning about this *during summer*... ‘PM Boris Johnson has suggested the recent spike in coronavirus cases in the UK is a result of a "fraying of people's discipline" over the summer.’

I understand if people now feel they can disregard Govt guidance. But please don’t. We are nearly at the point where we can emerge, step by step, from this testing isolation. Each of us following our own instincts, and what we feel to be reasonable, will set that back. #StayHome

If I can’t work at home but can’t get to work except by public transport, what do I do? #StayAlert obviously, but what does that mean???

I listened to an expert, Prof. Sarah Gilbert, a vaccinologist at Oxf., being interviewed this morning. Not long following there was an interview with the politician who once said we’d all had enough of experts (Michael Gove). Guess which interview I found most informative?

I know less about judicial review than I perhaps should, as a lawyer. (Not my practice area.) This from @jessphillips is an important practical view on the good it can do. Our politicians and public bodies should not be above the law or scrutiny.

Thread. I find the proposals to "review" the judges and and judicial review process chilling. Having assisted with a number of judicial reviews and super complaints to protect victims of domestic abuse I can see that without the courts citizens would have been less safe.

‘So teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom.’ A prayer of Moses (Ps 90:12) apt for a new year’s eve. #happynewyear2020

Parliament did not ‘block’ the Conservative-negotiated Withdrawal Agreement. They literally passed it. J-Dog, meanwhile, voted against a previous Conservative-negotiated Withdrawal Agreement. Just as Boris Johnson did. Why would he not mention this? ‘Common sense’, presumably.

What’s going on? @northernassist @AndyBurnhamGM Couldn’t physically get on the train today at #davenporttrainstation and the next one is cancelled. Now I am driving to Liverpool and pumping more emissions into the atmosphere. This is NOT good #northernfail
