Default 16.00 News conference today

Boris is holding a news conference at 16.00 today after news has been leaked of a possible lockdown from Monday,I would imagine he will announce a lockdown for England today.

Gawd I hope not, but I suspect the Loo roll plunderers will be out with their trolleys five minutes after the announcement, if they are not out panicking already. Selfish idiots.

I took the opportunity after the last panic buying spree to buy several large packs when they were on special offer as no one wanted any.

My wife did our weekly shop this morning, then had to go to a different shop for the other half of it as Aldi looked like it had been ram raided. Still not entirely sure why people get Covid confused with dysentery.

The news conference is running about 2 hours late, apparently Boris is out Trick and Treating.

As if a MP would trick people whatever next

Why do the BBC insist on overlaying their news banner across the base lines of the graphs making them unreadable !
