Nope. Lamenting the Twitter ban, in fact.

Good good. Reveal your true colours Nige.
Iād love to ask him what he thinks is the difference between Trumps tweets etc. And an extremist Muslim tweeting to organise a Jihadist uprising.

Even if she ends up right, they have simply got to stop making wild proclamations like this.
Invariably everything they recklessly promise turns out to fall short. But crucially every single time someone in a position of authority on a covid related issue comes out with some light at the end of the tunnel thing like this, itās a red rag to every person who feels like going out and breaking the rules.

Does this include due diligence of PPE suppliers?

A LOT more. Sheesh, Ā£30 we could feed our family of 2 adults and 2 kids for a week, on a budget.

Someone worked that out to be Ā£5.22 out of an allowance/voucher value Ā£30.
Someone is getting fat on that and it ain`t the kids.
Disgusting.

Cynical view. There will be administration costs of putting bread and baked beans into a bag. And consultation fees. Itās common knowledge that nothing can happen without a Tory ministerās cousin advising on the process.

That is fucking outrageous.
Isnāt that also cynical? Just saying.
Yes it is. Sorry. It doesnāt have to be a relative. It could also be a friend of a minister, or their friendās spouse.

I was thinking about it later,would those costs come out of the voucher or would that be paid separately.
Thereās also the delivery cost.
Iām guessing those would all be reimbursed seperately to the companies involved as you wouldnāt want to impact on the Ā£30 value for he kids 
Drink in the same pub?
I think the way it works is that schools can buy in those services (food parcels for vulnerable families) and are then reimbursed by local authority to the tune of Ā£30 per fortnight per child, who are then reimbursed by national government.
My problem with the scheme is that it would be far more efficient to give the families supermarket vouchers (which would present less opportunity for top slicing) and more efficient still to just families the cash, although thatās not possible as we all know poor people donāt love their children and would spend the money on crack and tellies.
