I don.t think Jeremy Hunt covered himself in glory and left a few unanswered questions as Culture Secretary under the Leveson Inquiry

regards

Jeremy Hunt pops up because he is the chair of the Health Select Committee.

He is a skin deep, lightweight politician without the ability or charisma to be PM.

My mystification is more about the media than JH ..... he was JH then ... and he's JH now .... it's just how he's gone from a Dominic Cummins-esque figure of hate with not a redeeming feature to someone who seems their preferred quotee on things pandemic and 'what the government should be doing' .... a seamless 'doublespeak' about face, without the slightest trace of self-awareness or consistency .... utterly shameless.

Modern politics in a nutshell. Remember when ministers used to resign when they cocked up or were caught out lying?

Sadly, I don't notice any resignations of Editors or Directors of News Services either .....

This morning on the Andrew Marr show he interviewed Professor Gilbert from Astra-Zenica-Oxford. She gave the best overview I have seen. Non political and sticking to virus/vaccine details. She declined to comment on lockdown/return to normal comments as she was solely describing scientific information.
They started investigating Covid 19 from when first news from Wuhan was known and ahead of spread. The virus characteristics were described plus how vaccines work. Also the mutations that occur and how the vaccines can deal with them.
She described the effects of vaccines covering how good, timings of second jabs, mixing types, longer term effectiveness and future options for regular vaccination as with flu.
No bullshit, wild claims, over optimism or negativity.
The interview was what is needed and should be widely viewed. The official public info bulletins by politicians and health officials like Witty are markedly lacking in presenting the facts. I think behind closed doors things are clearer but controlled when the info is broadcast. A case of Politics overtaking experts.
One thing that stood out was Andrew Marr being less aggressive in his input and questions. He let a real expert speak without interruption or steering of the interview. It added up to a good information session.

Great to hear, one wonders why good informative information provision is not the norm. Particulary in matters of public health.

Definitely +1 Bert!
No doubt there will be further broadcast of parts, if not the whole, interview later.
