A small profits rate is a terrible policy. Added complexity, encourages individuals to incorporate reduce tax, does nothing for investment. — PolitiTweet.org

David Gauke @DavidGauke

@rbrharrison @iainmartin1 @TimPitt11 @DPMcBride On this specific measure, I am not convinced. Added to Brexit, it gives the impression that we're not focused on attracting inward investment. CT only one factor in a decision but our direction of travel will make attracting investment harder. — PolitiTweet.org

@iainmartin1 @rbrharrison @DPMcBride Yes but that is a case of the Chancellor using OBR numbers to support doing what he wants to do. Not a case of the existence of the OBR forcing the Chancellor to do something he doesn't want to do. — PolitiTweet.org

David Gauke @DavidGauke

@iainmartin1 @rbrharrison @DPMcBride If a proposed fiscal policy is impossible to defend because of OBR numbers it probably isn't a good policy. — PolitiTweet.org

Assuming the Government sticks to the 12 week gap between doses, 2nd doses won't make up a significant proportion of vaccinations until 6 April. Looks plausible that 75-80% of UK adults could have received a 1st dose by the end of the month IF the daily rate doubles. — PolitiTweet.org

David Gauke @DavidGauke

If the vaccination rate is really going to double, plenty people in their 30s will get a first dose in March. https://t.co/Jm52mrXqWK — PolitiTweet.org

David Gauke @DavidGauke

There might well be a case for regional tiers. But also a case, once category 9 received 1st dose nationally, of targeting the vaccine rollout in high case areas. — PolitiTweet.org

@colinrtalbot Fair enough. On this occasion, I think (as well as hope) that they are under promising. — PolitiTweet.org

David Gauke @DavidGauke

@colinrtalbot I suspect that there is an expectation of an increase in supplies as we go through the spring but that can’t be guaranteed. My point is that, even before there are high numbers of 2nd doses due, we might have made very good progress on 1st doses. — PolitiTweet.org

David Gauke @DavidGauke

@Ready4Rory @colinrtalbot @HugoGye The official line is category 9 by 15 April. But you can see how expectations might be exceeded even if the pace of first doses slows in April. — PolitiTweet.org
