Matt tv 5 pm.briefing.

I find that he puts the fear in people with his briefing. I think it's best he does not.

"i will let Mr.Green Shoots deal with the second question."

"we are all in this together"you must stay at home"

ppe promises shambles
100,000 tests looking a shambles

so expect another 5 point plan on social care

handjob loves a 5 point plan,used to be known as a can kicking  exercise

"testing  is a government priority,we are ramping up the testing" that's Matt's answer

less than 15,000 again yesterday ,2 days running with current capacity for 19,000 ,he,s got some ramping to do

GET TESTING DONE

A new badge.

This pillock is so boring and condescending I've stopped watching his briefing.

Juan Ker

Why the fook are they showing us a graph about how transport usage had dropped, surely we can skip past this "filler" can't we

a graph without care home deaths is pure misinformation. You'd be up near Spain if they were disclosed

Not enough demand for tests??..this guy is barking mad!

yay, Peston

Updated info for UK and Italy, both have reported data today.
Italy definitely past their new cases peak, UK not yet.

March and April split in to three periods, either ten or 11 days, 5 days so far for April P2.

Peston said it would be a quick couple of questions.......they weren’t Ffs he can’t even get that right ......yet he’s critizing the Govt on handling of this pandemic

Complete knob

listening to those whove had it done,if the virus doesn't get the elderly the test will,apparently the swab up the nose is very painful ,see stars for a few seconds

"Not enough people satisfying our small print criteria for testing" is what he meant to say.

Peston struggles to get one word out quick with his affected speech impediment.

I heard requests for additional guidance and information.

He should employ you goosey!

They are treating the Great British public with contempt, and more worryingly for the future, they are getting away with it...

Where are the real journalists who can ask the probing questions that need answering?

Whitty is getting to the end of his patience with these knob heads.

Thes journalists questions are pathetic, negative, don’t help and are insulting

When are you going to add care home deaths to your total and update your graphs?
Has anyone asked that?

Saturday err not Sunday.... any even get that right

told ye yesterday the only hope handjob has off reaching his total is to manipulate, 200,000 tests and volunteers for a 2day jamboree on 2 days alone near end of the month,no  chance of organically reaching 100,000 tests with incremental increases day on day,which most people thought was the plan and once reached it would be 100,000 tests a day and increasing day by day from there onwards

Nick won't be asked back I don't think

Was asked yesterday, the response was essentially that it's in the too difficult to do category.

you get worried when the minister in charge praises the work done by journo,s and admits in most cases they no more than him

Ha. I'm not even talking on a daily basis. I'm talking about all the weekly deaths disclosed so far. They should be added on to the 12.8k figure and graphs updated

You couldn't make it up...the Chief Medical Officer now tells us that the last place for a sick person to be is inside a hospital, as that is the worst place to be to avoid catching a disease....

Classic!

Maths is too difficult to do?

It doesn't help when you have Hancock listing all the things he has done for care homes when the answer in reality is feck all.

Isn't it a bit late?

Maths is difficult if you need an excuse to be dishonest.

Statistics is easy if you wish to manipulate data...

When they have recovered, do you struggle with spoken English? Have access to subtitles?

this nick martin fella is very good ,excellent during election touring uk reporting on left behind area,s people,no chance of the likes of handjob fobbing this fella off,he,s been genuinely shocked even before virus about left behind people,towns, ALL ROUND GOOD EGG,IMO

The thing I struggle with is being expected to believe blatent bullsh*t when it is being broadcast daily by members of Her Majesty's Government.

I think the assistant CMO was being frank and accurate when she said the last place anyone would not want to be at the present moment if sick is any hospital, why? The risks significantly multiplied when one is admitted to a hospital in this climate.

I have a hunch you don't have any issues with disbelieving it, in fact it's probably your default setting.

It's never a straight answer, stuttering, hand gesturing, pausing passing baloney daily.

I didn't realise you were quite that astute, I will amend my opinion of you accordingly

Did he not have a 25k a day test target by mid-April?

raising the bar goal,but initial ay erm goal already reached........so they already know they cant get 100,000 done..........

The NHS can provide expert care for hunches

and so it is

So the demand for testing was lower as some of our NHS heroes preferred to carry on self isolating over the easter holidays.

after been rinsed twice by morgan this week ,the government cummings would like to send gove out to give morgan a doing,but as his daughter getting a test is a morgan hobby horse,their isn't a single member of the government they can send out in the hope the,d bring good morning Britain down a peg or 2
where are notsocleverly,sculley,francois,bone,bridgen,jenkins etc

care workers getting a tuffty badge,
still heading for the worst record in Europe and still bragging about having spare beds, .com

Don't forget Rees-Smug.

he cant be trusted not to show his superior intelligence ,

"We wouldn't get infected Piers, it's common sense."

ask hancock,cummings,doris,witty,

A tremendous Stint by MATT , well done that man

tell you what I have missed is she called keegan telling us she used to be an entrepeaneur

Get Paxman and Piers Morgan to ask the questions.Ffs.How are the journalists selected.No real up and at em approach very poor.

Matt Hancock 16th March;

"And i want everyone to know we are working around the clock toensure we will do everything possible to reduce the risk vulnerable and elderly people face.

Anyone who is suspected of having covid19 is advised not to visit care homes"

That beauty is taken out of carehomeprofessional.com 16th March.

The kids off FYI would be a vast improvement.

the butterfly,snowflake dan walker is beating himself up at home,because the incompetency of tory minister,s is making him look like Paxo or Andrew neil,

will matt turn up tomorrow, suppose to be on good morning britain with pierse

bit of advice matt don't
piers morgan incredulous on twiiter  full meltdown that hancocks admitted that elderly people have left virus riddled hospital,s  and gone bac ink to care homes without been tested, no surprise care homes are equally run rabid with the virus, handjob might want to sleep in
morgan also saying that hancock give all the new uk manufacturers of ventilators the wrong spec,that only give oxygen for a few hr,s and nhs have told him their a waste of time and if they,d known they,d have told hancock not to bother

Where is Rishi "how does it feel ." Persad , when you need him ?

To treat me like you do ?

even mail,torygraph saying hancock lied in press conference when he said a journo was wrong to say hancock had promised 25,000 tests by today, they've all got the text from march with hancock saying we,ll have 25,000 tests in 4 weeks,that 4 weeks ends today,
he best hope the alarm clock doesn't go off,or don't set it

When you've laid your hands apon me.

don't need care home graphs, they would not be accurate and misleading giving false and inflated figures, 10,000 people a month die in care homes ordinarily.

Thus looking at the all deaths data removes any quibbling over what and where.

For Week 14 in England and Wales, there were 16,387 registered deaths.
For the previous five years, the average number of deaths for Week 14 was 10,305.

I think they should wheel out Dom Cummings to do these press conferences!
It would be a lot more entertaining

This week in terms of deaths, 3,475 had Covid-19 mentioned on death certificate, not listed as the direct cause.

There are a lot of ways of massaging the figures
If somebody never gets tested and dies of a lung infection or pneumonia then you could easily have extremely low figs
That is what is happening in the 3rd world countries
If they were using western methods the numbers would be off the charts

The official total where I live is 40, you can add two zeroes on to that at the very least

3 weeks more incoming from tomorrow

I've said from the start this virus is being made far worse by incompetent medical staff playing heroes in hospitals.

Look at the staff below wearing bin bags in order to treat highly contagious patients. Shock/Horror they actually catch the virus and no doubt spread it further.
No medical worker without PPE should be working with infectious patients. Medical unions have been a disgrace and their lack of action has contributed to the deaths of medical staff

https://www.businessinsider.com/coronavirus-uk-nurses-forced-to-wear-bin-bags-test-positive-2020-4?r=US&IR=T

No medical worker without PPE should be working with infectious patients.

And if the byproduct is patients die, so be it. You will save far more lives by not spreading the infection and practicing proper infection control methods
There is no cure, treatment for this virus yet so any "Treatment" provided by nurses in bin bags is a waste of time.
There is no proof ventilators are saving lives either

Petraco re bullsh1t, absolutely correct, can be seen on itv +1 @ 9.30am.

Well worth a watch. Handjob is losing it. He sounded deranged on R4 earlier

think we saw hancocks latest get out of jail card this, he said theres capacity for 25,000 tests today,although yesterday they said 19,000,and last few days 15,0000 getting tested,
hancocks going to say later this month theres capacity for a 100,000 tests and not his fault if people don't take up the offer
if you cant get ppe through the post ,amazon etc to care homes not sure how you can ramp up actually getting nurses with test kits to care homes to take tests, mini buses to Tesco car parks etc, seems to be hancocks answer,
300,000 tests going back  6 weeks what relevance today have the 1st few 100,000, they should be counted as not been tested

no mention of the amazing protective power of a badge from moron. the funniest part was when moron couldnt stop himself from interrupting. je ne regrette rien as ever from hancock

there is a view that if the lock down works we dont need 100,000 tests a day. south korea population about 50 million has never done more than 20,000 tests a day.

How long before we see a demand for the creation of the NCS ?

from reports i have read there are councils with public health employees and there are animal safety staff who could surely be trained to do contact tracing.

i am looking forward to the slide today about the transport ,i bet its down ,can't wait

Matt telling more porkies,this time about care homes,this guy is unbelievable .

you think hes bad you should see the CMO/Government in Ireland.

For the last 2 weeks, Hacks have asked every day how many cases are in care homes......


every day the same answer: "We don't have those figures to hand"

These idiots were given the answers to the exam. Stevie Wonder could have told them Care homes would be serious hot spots but true to form they f**k it up yet again.

This time though they have blood on their hands.

Hancock is absolute toast. Political career is done and will be toxic in the private sector surely

Matt Hancock has become compulsive liar(i guess its a addictive disease) but with it he has become compulsive viewing on TV.
Everyone in the nation tune in when he handles the 5 pm briefings just to see if they can find the lies every time he speaks.
A career in Show business is on the way for Matt,and it may be sooner that later.IMVHO
