Zelenskyy on Johnson: much keener than Macron to send military support. “Johnson is a leader who is helping more. The leaders of countries react according to how their constituents act. In this case, Johnson is an example. Britain is definitely on our side.

So much for standing by business @RishiSunak. Hospitality burdened with huge cost price increases, wage increases, national insurance increases, utility costs more than doubling etc. Nothing in your spring statement to help. Instead, VAT & National Insurance go up.
If there is any chance of long term survival of hospitality in the UK business rates reduction and VAT cut need to be made permanent to offset crippling cost increases especially in gas and electricity. Govt also needs to invest in promoting sector to new recruits.
The inbuilt pessimistic bias of the genius modellers who want us to shut down society yet again. Because it worked so well before - and led to no awful collateral damage. Institutional stupidity on an epic scale. spectator.co.uk/article/my-t…

Morning, Make sure that family members, colleagues & friends know of what was admitted yesterday. The Government modellers simply create projections to fit the policies that need them. Omicron won’t cause the Hospitalisations & Deaths they ‘predicted’ We MUST NOT Lockdown

I want to thank you for bankrupting 1/10 hospitality venues and costing UK £370 billion without actually achieving any health benefits, but causing immense damage to health and society.
I want to thank the extraordinary scientists and clinicians who provide the government and I with first class advice every single day. You are a huge credit to our country.

Replying to @BBCNews
@BBCNews - when you report the Covid stats on the news,perhaps consider reporting the number of people in hospital who are not vaccinated. This might act as a motivation to get the 5 million unvaccinated people to think differently! #Covid_19 – at Wandsworth, London

Chancelllor, I’m sure you’re as irritated about the prospect of having to provide more support to hospitality as we are about seeing vital revenue wiped out by Plan B & govt advisor doom-mongering. But here we are - being crushed & trampled over AGAIN & this response is pathetic.
Earlier I spoke about my meetings with hospitality leaders, the support available and the need for us to all #GetBoostedNow.

Our house is on fire, as Greta says, but it's not just a climate fire, it's a delta fire and an omicron fire and an inequality fire and a racism fire and an extinction fire and a democracy fire and a corruption fire and a misinformation fire, and it's all just exhausting.

Well said @Sacha_Lord
Can someone URGENTLY wake up ⁦@RishiSunak⁩ please. Chancellor, you’ve turned your back on the 5th biggest industry in the UK. You will be responsible for the decimation of businesses, livelihoods and mass redundancies.

Our thoughts are with the ‘modellers’ at this difficult, and embarrassing, time. For anyone still interested in facts👇 South Africa's Omicron outbreak slows, figures suggest mol.im/a/10299773 via @MailOnline

We can’t survive another lockdown that ‘isn’t a lockdown by all but name’ devoid of any support or compensation It’s not what’s happening now, it’s what signals are still to come… 👇👇👇
