As the uni have said the exact site can't be confirmed until they know the final plans for the link road not sure why anyone would be expecting anything to happen before that. Was supposed to be imminent but seems to have ground to a halt, presumably thanks to covid. If you believe a new...

You could maybe excuse one or two dodgy contracts back at the start of this when there was a mad scramble to get PPE in place, although even that is down to the government ignoring the recommendations in its own report. But the fact that its still happening so often months later suggests to me...

What makes you think that? https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/boris-johnson-coronavirus-inquiry-when-delay-covid-b1347664.html

I've been very sceptical of a 'silver bullet' coming along to save us but the number of people who all now seem to be saying basically the same thing makes me hopeful. Without going all Big Pharma conspiracy theory how much effort is actually put into curing the common cold? In healthcare...

Its pretty much only hospitality, theatres and similar that aren't at work isn't it? The BMJ reported the roll out will take 6 - 9 months and will be done in a specific priority. Best case scenario is the current tests give the result we want and you're looking at approval in late Nov or early...

Its not been confirmed, and I'm sure it won't be until its passed every stage and been approved, but it has been noticeable how over the last couple of weeks multiple experts have changed from expressing caution and saying it could be months before we get a vaccine to talking about starting a...

Have they agreed a new TV deal yet? Last thing I read was nobody was interested so they were thinking of starting their own channel. Can't see that being anything but an expense. They'd have to come up with content to cover 7 days a week, even if it wasn't 24 hours a day and was full of repeats...

This jumped out of the article for me. We haven't been doing test on people without symptoms for months have we? Worrying that they are highlighting that as a cause of staff shortages in many areas with those that may not be infected having to quarantine. Our testing system is struggling to...

Your making the assumption that they've had no offers from elsewhere. Could well be they've had offers with big wages from places like China or the US and are just taking their time deciding what to do. Even if they haven't they might be doing media work which is more attractive to them than a...

Who would pay their wages?

If you're referring to Warwick Uni As far as I'm aware the next step was confirmation of the exact site and then a public consultation which the uni said at the time it was all announced would be before the end of the year. However they also said the exact site was dependent on the final...

There's already a narrative being pushed that any failings with Brexit are somehow the fault of remainers. Would hope that wouldn't stick as its clearly ridiculous but nothing would surprise me.

Rumours swirling around of a pending u-turn on kids meals. Seems Conservative MPs who voted against it are now unhappy they are being held to account by their constituents. Hancock claims Johnson and Rashford are talking, Rashford knows nothing about it. Also this morning calls for Johnson...

You need to be more specific. So much to choose from with the car crash interviews he's been giving this morning. Noticed that he slipped in 500K tests a day by the end of the year when it was previously said to be by the end of October.

While getting results quickly is obviously a good thing the cynic in me fears we're a step away from a £120 a time charge for attending events, seeing family etc.

Don't think anyone expected to have it rolled out to everyone by Xmas. Not even Johnson has claimed that has he? If they're planning to start this year I'd take that as good news as I was thinking next spring was looking optimistic. Would think that if you can cover NHS workers, elderly and...

Did he expand on that? Does he just mean because it will take months and months to roll it out to enough people to allow a return to normality or due to a lack of effectiveness?

Seems that staff at George Eliot have received a memo from the chief exec, Glen Burley, regarding vaccinations: Fingers crossed there is something to this and not just a case of crossed wires. Think knowing there is a light at the end of the tunnel would be great for people. Might also help...

That’s a ridiculously harsh red on top of the pen. We do like making things hard for ourselves.

Great attack, shame Godden couldn’t quite finish it
