Having a hard time keeping my breakfast down listening to @LeaderMcConnell compliment AG nominee Merrick Garland, whom he refused to either meet with or even grant a hearing when he was nominated to the SCOTUS under President Obama.

As border crossings swell, White House searches for solutions…

“We’ve seen surges before. Surges tend to respond to hope, and there was a significant hope for a more humane policy after four years of pent-up demand.”

Truly damning. Public Accounts Committee finds “no clear evidence” that Govt’s Test and Trace programme is effective despite £22bn spent on it so far – and £15bn more to come.

– lack of evidence but rapid tests rolled outhttps://t.co/sVTmEhZjTg]

I've long argued that the post-Brexit UK-EU relationship would be difficult, but even I'm surprised how far & fast it has sunk
