“a leading scientist attacks [Rishi Sunak’s] ‘spectacularly stupid’ Eat Out to Help Out scheme, which is believed to have caused a sudden rise in cases of the virus”
Seriously gang… I think the greater challenge is to find any UK scientist at all who HASN’T described #EatOutToHelpOut as #spectacularlyStupid.
And yes: in foresight as well as hindsight.

Speculation: #BorisJohnson's phone contains evidence that #Sunak either knew that (or at the least was alerted to and neglegent about) #EatOutToHelpOut increasing the spread of #Covid
That's why they're fighting to stop it seeing the light of day.

The annual UK budget for the #arts sector is half of one month of #EatOuttoHelpOut #GuardianUK and £3m less than in 2010. A competitive fixed-term #NPO process forces us to commit to ambitious programme and organisational development plans and subjective value measures like "Dynamism," so everyone's trying to do more for less. I'm not sure who's better or worse off; those in or out of this toxic "Portfolio" model. And we appear to have waved goodbye to #AtArmsLength

Quick 🇬🇧 news scroll and it’s a depressing affair. On the face of it, #CONservatives were reckless where #PublicHealth was concerned and their schemes and lies caused preventable deaths for 1000s.

The analysis is obviously well done and I congratulate the
@UKHSA researchers. I am questioning more the process behind. Why are we not empowering the research community to to what they can do best?
We see similar patterns with other work that researchers do where FOI that are intended to help improve data access are being refused or not supported. I am thinking of this one on #EatOutToHelpOut and many others: just look at my FOI track record:

@ImIncorrigible The #EatOutToHelpOut foolery followed Sunak's invitation of the #BarringtonDeclaration mob to Dowing Street, demonstrating his anti-science inclination. We have a Prime Minister opposed to rationalism.
