New + exclusive from me + @BrandyZadrozny:

The man suspected of ambushing the family of Judge Esther Salas called her “a lazy and incompetent Latina judge appointed by Obama,” part of a 1,700-page misogynist screed he wrote this year.https://t.co/kjrfwgNBMU

“Britain has seen so many die during the Covid pandemic, & will have a European deal that will kick a bleeding country when it’s down, because Johnson forced competent & principled men & women out of the Conservative party or left them on the backbenches” https://t.co/JM2N0VXHIr

Imagine claiming you are ‘following the science’, then dumping senior scientists & nurses who won’t publicly back your favourite aide. @BorisJohnson’s defence of Cummings was, and remains, indefensible. https://t.co/Hj4Di2cizA

"We do have serious concerns."@BorisJohnson says he doesn't want to be pushed into a position of being "automatically anti-China" but admits he has "serious concerns" over China in relation to 'human rights abuses and what's going on in Hong Kong.'https://t.co/W1keMeCeJs pic.twitter.com/iuxoMHpddd

Great to be back in London to reaffirm the #SpecialRelationship we share with our closest ally. Looking forward to meeting with @BorisJohnson and @DominicRaab as we tackle our most pressing global issues in combating COVID-19 and addressing our shared security challenges. pic.twitter.com/cskYXsWFGE

The #RussiaReport will be published at 10:30am tomorrow. Whatever's in it, Putin's already won. Through his information warfare and Russian hypernormalisation of fake realities, he aims to destabilise the West by sowing seeds of doubt & confusion about democracy. We're there.

Results from trials involving three different coronavirus vaccines all showed positive results, with evidence the vaccines can produce immune responses. More studies will be needed to show how safe they really are and whether they can prevent infection. https://t.co/vnHSSr9RN6

A coronavirus vaccine that requires each person to get two doses could complicate efforts to immunize billions of people. And then if it needs a booster shot every year….. https://t.co/lhvxvBxaEf via @business

Presumably if the Oxford vaccine fails, it’ll end up as people such as I did, graduating from St Andrews or Durham or Bristol.
