If this tier 4 stuff is true then that will be the 4th set of different restrictions London will have been under in 19 days. This is changing faster than a Sugababes line up.

My other half sobbed after Tier 4 announcement. Two weeks ago he was philosophical and reconcilled to not seeing his folks over Xmas. Then Johnson waded in and raised his hopes. Guaranteed it. And even people who distrust him, wanted to believe it so much, that they did. Bastard.

It's the lateness that's frustrating. Late to take covid seriously. Late with PPE and track and trace. Late to lockdown. Twice. Late to fire Cummings. Late to change advice on facemasks. Late to change Christmas rules. The government's always fixing yesterday's problem tomorrow.

It’s now imperative that PM seeks an agreement to extend the Brexit transition period. The new Covid strain – & the various implications of it – means we face a profoundly serious situation, & it demands our 100% attention. It would be unconscionable to compound it with Brexit.

Right now, tonight, Johnson needs to do what he should have done many months ago, he must call Ursula von der Leyen and plead for an extension to the transition period. It will be politically embarrassing & probably cost him his job but anything else is criminally irresponsible.

We've just spent 5 years at war with each other, devalued the £ by 20%, savaged our economy, quit the world's largest free trade zone, created a mountain of red tape & flushed £200bn down the drain to 'control our borders'. 6 EU states just did it in 24 hours with a press release
