So, two twitter surprises
Dominic Cummings has tweeted a long thread criticising the government's handling of the covid crisis. I particularly liked his description of the first lock down as a 'pseudo lockdown'. Plenty of people reminding him of his little lockdown busting trip to Durham... And of his ingratitude for being unprecedentedly shielded by the government for it...
Could a little rewriting of history be going on?

And, one of the nurses who nursed Johnson when he had covid has resigned,
Jenny McGee, who kept vigil by the prime minister’s bedside for two days when he was in intensive care, also revealed that his staff had later attempted to co-opt her into a “clap for the NHS” photo opportunity with him during what she thought would be a discreet thank you visit to Downing Street.
“We’re not getting the respect and now pay that we deserve. I’m just sick of it. So I’ve handed in my resignation,” said McGee, referring to the government’s proposed 1% pay rise for NHS staff, which unions have described as a “kick in the teeth”
