Borisjohnson went on to him as he put it, Dominic Cummings, for a two Week Holiday in february 2020, they were almost relieved that he wasnt going to the cobra meetings, the emergency meetings, because they thought he would be almost unsafe for the country if he did attend. Now, these things are astonishing, and even if they dont have an impact on voters, to be honest, they should do. It voters want to turn away, they have got every right to do so, but they are remarkable insights, albeit from a subjective perspective into the chaos behind the scenes of a british government tackling what is unquestionably the biggest challenge since i9li5. fine tackling what is unquestionably the biggest challenge since 1945. One of the Secific Biggest Challenge since 1945. One of the specific allegations biggest challenge since 1945. One of the specific allegations that biggest challenge since 1945. One of the specific allegations that was the specific allegations that was made about the government was over the decision to allow Hospital Patients who had been treated for covid to return to Care Homes. A purely having been tested first, but, of course, it turned out many of them hadnt been tested, and the consequence was a Lot Of people dying in Care Homes. You work in this sector, you understand a lot from you talk to a Lot Of people in this sector. Can you help us with this .

Experiencing what they didnt plan through, they didnt have the guidance through, they didnt have the guidance around, the government actually guidance around, the government actually changed its mind about five times actually changed its mind about five times since January 2020 up toward april with times since January 2020 up toward april with different guidance. That was confusing for the hospitals. That was confusing for the hospitals. That was was confusing for the hospitals. That was confusing for the Care Homes that was confusing for the Care Homes i that was confusing for the Care Homes. I know for a fact because the Care Standards specifically says when Care Standards specifically says when you Care Standards specifically says when you are leaving the hospital, you should when you are leaving the hospital, you should have a discharge plan, so if you you should have a discharge plan, so if you go you should have a discharge plan, so if you go from hospital to home, it should if you go from hospital to home, it should he if you go from hospital to home, it should be clear fairly planned by the hospital, and what we have was a panic the hospital, and what we have was a panic reaction. , an action that was a most panic reaction. , an action that was a most without leadership in terms of the a most without leadership in terms of the Government Response to that.

In that context, when the government says, we acted on the scientific and vice, they clearly did, but even the scientists werent sure, and therefore, are we trying to load too much criticism onto government of handling something when it was kind of blindsided by governments elsewhere in the world . ,. , blindsided by governments elsewhere in the world .

The broader political questions beyond just before that. The broader political questions beyond just the before that. The broader political questions beyond just the pandemic, there is a Lot Of criticism from Dominic Cummings, some have to miss dismissed a Lot Of it as personal as kind of revenge, bitterness for the way he left government. Couple of interesting aspects, one for my guess you can criticise as saying he was on the strength to control things, he says he was trained to change a structure around Boris Johnson to stop what i thought were extremely bad decisions. One might wonder if that is really their role of the adviser, but he then quotes the Prime Minister he says, you are right, i am the Prime Minister he says, you are right, iam more the Prime Minister he says, you are right, i am more frightened of you, Dominic Cummings, having the power to stop the chaos than i am of the chaos. Chaos isnt that bad, chaos means that everyone has to look to means that everyone has to look to me to see Who Is in charge. I wonder, assuming that that is a correct representation of what Boris Johnson said to him, what that tells us or might tell us about the conduct of government and what your views are on that. Views are on that. Yes, and again, ou views are on that. Yes, and again, you could views are on that. Yes, and again, you could say. Views are on that. Yes, and again, you could say, well, views are on that. Yes, and again, you could say, well, dominic you could say, well, Dominic Cummings was out to get Boris Johnson, and again, i would argue that that would be a perfectly valid thing to say. If it was at odds with what we know will stop at all the evidence suggests hes a chaotic figure, borisjohnson. As a journalist, is a broadcaster, used to do programmes with him sometimes. There was an air of chaos around. But does that matter . There was an air of chaos around. But does that matter . Yes, it does matter in terms but does that matter . Yes, it does matter in terms of but does that matter . Yes, it does matter in terms of clarity but does that matter . Yes, it does matter in terms of clarity of matter in terms of clarity of policymaking, delivering policy, of being not only decisive, but about making the right calls based on the evidence in front of you, which could be complex, detailed, dull, technocratic. And, you know, what we see suggests that that isnt. Boris johnson is a great Vote Winner to be absolutely clear about that, but that Side Effect chimes with what Dominic Cummings said. And his appointments in cabinet are fairly mediocre unthreatening figures, wholly dependent on his patronage. It reinforces the sense that rather than allowing others, big figures, to have space to impose order and control, he would prefer the chaos around him. So he retains a degree of control. So i do think it really matters in terms of the conduct of government. In britain, we have a Cabinet Base System in theory, although, cummings made clear cabinet was virtually wholly bypassed. A kind of president ial culture where Prime Ministers wield considerable power, especially in an emergency, and so it does matter what his when his most Senior Adviser says he prefers chaos to order so he has a kind of space to rule. �. ,. , order so he has a kind of space to rule. �. ,. ,. , order so he has a kind of space to rule. �. ,. , rule.

There is some systematic practices that have there is some systematic practices that have been going on in these countries that have been going on in these countries in france, in britain, in the united countries in france, in britain, in the united kingdom, and we are talking the united kingdom, and we are talking about Police Actions now, and what talking about Police Actions now, and what joe talking about Police Actions now, and whatJoe Biden says he talking about Police Actions now, and what Joe Biden says he wants to be able and what Joe Biden says he wants to be able to and what Joe Biden says he wants to be able to make that change in terms of policing. Be able to make that change in terms of policing, but look what has happened in the last week or so in us congress. The proposal being put forward us congress. The proposal being put forward has been sold. So that tells you people forward has been sold. So that tells you people come as Clive Set or not really you people come as Clive Set or not really ready you people come as Clive Set or not really ready to actually move forward really ready to actually move forward. It becomes something that everybody forward. It becomes something that everybody wants to be part of in Terms Everybody wants to be part of in terms of everybody wants to be part of in terms of human empathy, and this is systematic terms of human empathy, and this is systematic of why many people, for example. Systematic of why many people, for example, we talk about the covid a while example, we talk about the covid a while ago. Example, we talk about the covid a while ago, while many people of asian. While ago, while many people of asian, african, caribbean backgrounds are refusing to take the injections backgrounds are refusing to take the injections because they see the injections because they see the injections as part of the old thing to do injections as part of the old thing to do with injections as part of the old thing to do with black lives, policing, systematic and structures of society, systematic and structures of society, and we have a serious problem. Society, and we have a serious problem, but it demands serious solutions. Problem, but it demands serious solutions, and we are not getting it at all. Solutions, and we are not getting it at all. And solutions, and we are not getting it at all, and clive is right, you know. At all, and clive is right, you know. It at all, and clive is right, you know, it goes on in public for a short know, it goes on in public for a short time know, it goes on in public for a short time and then it goes back to the old short time and then it goes back to the old comfort zone. The old comfort zone. Steve, if black people the old comfort zone. Steve, if black people see a the old comfort zone. Steve, if black people see a systemic i the old comfort zone. Steve, if black people see a systemic problem, white people see no systemic problem. If we are looking in the state, how on earth does a white president or a black Vice President overcome that . In a political system where Culture Wars are almost starting to define the blood of the party themselves . Starting to define the blood of the party themselves . Well, they have not limited party themselves . Well, they have got limited Room Party themselves . Well, they have got limited room for party themselves . Well, they have got limited room for manoeuvre, L Party themselves . Well, they have l got limited room for manoeuvre, but they have got some room. I dont overestimate the long Term Potency of a tragedy, as clive suggests, i hadnt realised how things had gone backin hadnt realised how things had gone back in such a short period of time, but to be honest, depressed but not totally surprised. But i wouldnt also underestimate the power of the political altar. Also underestimate the power of the politicalaltar. It also underestimate the power of the political altar. It is different thatJoe Biden is president , speaking and responding to these kinds of events, compared, say, to donald trump, i mean, its a statement of the obvious, but that is a big difference. But in terms of power, i mean, you know, iwas talking earlier about britain having a Sort Of president ial culture in terms of Domestic Policy, quite often a Prime Minister has more control, albeit in a much smaller power, britain, than a president doesin power, britain, than a president does in Domestic Policy in the United States. So, i think he will use the altar to try and change the mood. He has already done so, and on several occasions. Now, im not saying that makes a practical difference in the short term, it doesnt. But i wouldnt understate that which has changed in the United States, but as a Signature Go back to my original point, these appalling tragedies, if you look back, there are protests, there are ritualistic protests, they still go on, footballers in britain still take the knee and so on, but then as clive has observed, it fades. It needs political will to bring about change in The End, but i think the difference between Biden And Trump is profound, and that is a new to the equation, a positive one. Clive, one of the most memorable rows during the democratic president ial primaries was when, Let Harris took onJoe Biden over his previous record on race, talked about how the young congressman had beenin about how the young congressman had been in her view to willing to compromise with some of the old racists to then use to operate in the senates and in the house of representatives, and it is on state of delaware how he had been willing to support busing, hugely controversial policy taking people from areas where there was white resistance to schooling, even if they lived in those areas, moving they lived in those areas, moving the miles and miles to go to a school where you could get some of the authorities could get them into that school.

The british government s brexit| the british government s brexit minister, i was in the house of lords this and, again, blamed the European Union for what is happening in northern ireland with the so called protocol. We havent got time to discuss. Now, the protocol is a consequence precisely of Lord David Frost and borisjohnsons negotiation. But i think the other interesting twist as we have been talking a little bit aboutJoe Biden, Joe Biden is watching this closely. I dont think he will buy a thing if this all goes badly wrong, the border between great britain and northern ireland, that it was the European Unions faults. Boris Johnson Aches for a Trade Deal with the United States, as part of the post brexit situation, and wants a close relationship withJoe Biden. So david frost, if it does lead to trouble, i think could have consequences with which Boris Johnson Wouldnt Welcome in terms of his relationship withJoe Biden.

Well, some of us probably looked at the Sky Today wondering wheres all this fantastic weather were promising. Just a little while longer. It is going to improve. It was a temporary blip on friday. It is going to turn increasingly sunny and warmer as we go through the Bank Holiday Weekend into next week. But heres the cloud from friday, you can see a little hit and miss. There were some showers around. The best of the weather was across northern scotland and closer to the north sea coast, and thats because high pressures building here. The Weather Fronts which are trying to get in are stopped by this area of high Pressure Think of the high pressure as a mountain and it stops the Weather Fronts coming off the atlantic. So, the Weather Front thats been here across the west is in the process of disintegrating, so its raining itself out. The clouds are starting to break up, but it does mean that Saturday Morning is going to be pretty overcast, murky and even drizzly in some areas, so we will have to wait a little while longer. Well call it a cloudy morning on saturday, but then brightening up as we go through the course of the afternoon. I think second half of the afternoon should be absolutely fine for most of us. So, heres the forecast for saturday. Starts off a little grey, the best of the sunshine probably across eastern areas of the country. Could be a few local brief showers here and there. Look at the temperatures 21 in london, 19 in liverpool, were expecting around 20 or so in glasgow. And high pressure is firmly in charge of our weather on sunday. Light winds, strong sunshine, dont forget that. Weve not been used to the sun so far this spring, so slap on the sunscreen if youre out for any lengthy period of time. Temperatures up to 23 degrees around merseyside on sunday. After that, the high pressure really does become quite dominant across the northwest of europe, so notjust here in the uk but scandinavia, parts of central europe as well. The high pressure is a vortex in itself, so its actually going to be drawing in warmth from the southern climes and spreading it across the uk and keeping the Weather Fronts at bay out in the atlantic. So, our temperatures on monday easily getting up into the low 20s throughout the country. Thats it from me. Enjoy the Bank Holiday Weekend. Bye. This is bbc news. The headlines.
