It is a mistake to wind down the self-employed income support scheme too quickly. The self-employed are the group we need to drive the economic recovery. They also have the least welfare support available to them. https://t.co/0O1hG08AbE — PolitiTweet.org

If Ministers really think they cannot remove existing Huawei equipment by 2023, they should stop installing new Huawei equipment now. https://t.co/eQaLypNe0H — PolitiTweet.org

Interesting to hear Venki Ramakrishnan, president of the @royalsociety, speaking about the need to wear masks on @MarrShow morning. There is mounting evidence in favour of using masks, which provide partial (not total) protection for both the non-wearer and the wearer. — PolitiTweet.org

The FT quotes me today, on Huawei, saying: "The coronavirus crisis had changed the political climate. The Huawei policy may have been arguable pre-corona but I don’t think it is any more. That may not be rational but the zeitgeist has changed.” https://t.co/UyWOBZK1DJ — PolitiTweet.org

@LiamFox is right. China is at crossroads between becoming a partner in the global community or a pariah state. That is their choice. The choice we have is our national security. Including Huawei in our 5G data network jeopardises this. https://t.co/4vnU9BKVzv — PolitiTweet.org

This policy made sense in March but not now. Someone travelling from Yorkshire to London is nearly 5 times more likely to have the virus than a holiday maker returning from Greece. — PolitiTweet.org

The answer to reducing the social distancing rules lies in other measures. Facemasks, screens in workplaces and supermarkets, and hand sanitising at schools and shops. A clearer direction on masks from the start could have made this easier. https://t.co/Co7V4CxrnR — PolitiTweet.org

Sir Ian Boyd is right to say the delay in early action cost lives. Although, the action taken could have been test, track and isolate rather than lockdown. https://t.co/8cVanWOAkE — PolitiTweet.org

I hate the idea of separating regions of the country. But as I pointed out yesterday, it has more sense behind it than international quarantine rules. https://t.co/AQPL8QdJ7g — PolitiTweet.org

The PM's proposal to reduce Huawei's involvement to 0 by 2023 is right but slow. The thing to do is stop any introduction of new equipment now and then remove existing equipment. Britain has been too compliant in the face of Chinese bullying for 20 years. https://t.co/mqDKOIUBE9 — PolitiTweet.org

It is unwise to restrict travel from countries who have handled the coronavirus better than us. Greece, for example, has a low infection rate and low number of deaths. Their economy relies on their tourism industry. It is unfair to punish them. — PolitiTweet.org

On the basis of scientific evidence, it looks to me that there is going to have to be new filtration regulations on air conditioning units to remove the virus from everything from our office buildings to airplanes. — PolitiTweet.org

Professor John Newton talking to the @CommonsSTC. Extraordinary that SAGE gave up on track and trace without even trying in February. If Greece can control the virus why can't we? https://t.co/uNZgemHhcj — PolitiTweet.org

From the beginning it has been obvious that an app only does around a quarter of the necessary work. Some do a lot less than 10%. The real work depends on the human trackers and how well organised they are. https://t.co/lwfoJd6nBx — PolitiTweet.org

The argument should not be if 1 metre or 2 metres is safe separation. Neither are if someone coughs or sneezes. It should be can you achieve better results with 1 metre, plus masks, plus hand sanitation, plus surface cleaning. — PolitiTweet.org

It is starting to look as though mandatory face masks, combined with hygiene measures such as frequent hand sanitation & intelligent distancing in schools, factories, public transport & other congested locations could achieve as much as lockdowns, on a more viable long term basis — PolitiTweet.org

Closing parts of the railway network will not prevent overcrowding. When the London Underground reduced its services, in hopes to reduce overcrowding, it had the opposite effect. https://t.co/Pws1QwDzsy — PolitiTweet.org
