“It was the right thing to do”, argues the Health Secretary.
“We mustn’t give up now. We must follow these new rules and make sure that our actions today will save lives in future and help get our country through this.”
Yesterday’s news marked an incredible achievement. Even so, there are many hurdles to vault.
“One of the big blunders from Boris Johnson was back in March”, says the Shadow Health Secretary, as he claims quarantine should have come sooner.
However, he doesn’t recognise the £10bn figure bosses are reportedly asking for on the NHS’ 72nd anniversary.
A national effort led by the Government is required to clear the backlog of operations and treatments. We can do this.
While barbers, beers and football are deemed priorities for reopening, female-dominated businesses, like nail salons, have been left in limbo.
“This week we will announce further details of the measures that we can take to relieve some of the national lockdown measures at the start of July”.
“But we also need to see greater use of facemasks” and “let’s get testing and tracing up and running”, says the Shadow Health Secretary.
The Health Secretary criticises the tech giant for not cooperating with “democratically elected governments”.
“Test, track and trace allows us to take a more targetted approach to lockdown – while still safely containing the disease.”
The Government is under pressure to tell the public to wear face masks. But if there’s not enough evidence, why?
Having extended its initial target to find 750,000 helpers, it seems the Government now has too many.
Used properly, stretch targets have the effect of galvanising the level of culture change, ambition, pace and delivery which is needed.
If staff hear a constant flow of worst-case scenarios presented as the norm, it understandably affects their anxiety levels.
