James O'Brien saying on LBC that Chris Witty missed some of the updates  because he couldn't defend the behaviour of Cummings.

O'Brien said Johnson after his mishandling of the pandemic that he wished he could hide in Trump's bunker!

I'll be totally honest that was more by good luck than good management 😂

My mobile has a mind of its own.

Sunak is realising what a job he's got on his hands from today.

Markets were allowed to open from today, and close to nobody decides to turn up across the country. 

And he goes 1 step further by appearing on Sky in an empty market pretty much saying "Look at me, I'm still alive" A bit like when John Gummer ate that burger infront of a cow during the Mad Cow epidemic

Very symbolic. I believe there had been calls for it to be taken down for years that weren't listened to.

Tories coming out to defend the slave statue left right and centre. 

They say it's an assault on property. 

Slaves were considered "property" back in the day, so fighting to abolish slavery was "an attack on property".

These are the same Tories that told people to celebrate the pulling of down of statues in Eastern Europe and Iraq.

Can you explain how that is racist, without using the false equivalence of 'if a white man said that'?

Because it’s clearly discriminatory based on the colour of the business owners skin

But I'm asking you to explain why it is discriminatory.

A public figure encouraging people not to spend their money in businesses owned by those of a certain race 
I can’t do any more simplifying of how that is discriminatory. 

I suppose the media can’t say a bad word about the former drug dealer Joshua though so hardly surprising on the lack of publicity on this
