Government is to more or less enter a media blackout during the period of mourning for Prince Philip – no Covid press conferences, no press releases other than for essential public health reasons, no ministers on media interviews, including the usual political shows this Sunday.

The slowness of all streaming TV services tonight is a fairly good indicator that the British public are not as up for a 24-hour mourn-a-thon that the BBC and ITV seem to think we should be obediently watching.

The BBC, having adopted wall-to-wall Prince Philip coverage to avoid being criticised in parts of the media and politics…. has now received so many complaints about their wall-to-wall coverage they’ve set up a streamlined form to complain about it. https://t.co/jgOqU5e51N

Let’s see how the royal family will line up on Saturday following this unfortunate news….there’s definitely a big hole they need to fill on the right wing

Watching the royal coverage and remembering the various times I rehearsed #PrincePhilip obits for the BBC. Nick Witchell seemed grief stricken during the rehearsals. Can’t imagine how he’s coping with the day itself.

“If at any stage people feel it [the monarchy] has no further part to play, then for goodness’ sake, let’s end the thing on amicable terms without having a row about it.” – Prince Philip

There had been fears of even more serious violence tonight & the expectation of trouble meant that some public sector workers were earlier today told they'd be sent home early. But increasingly loyalist protests are being called off in light of the death of the Duke of Edinburgh.

Gaetz hires Trump defense lawyer Marc Mukasey to represent him in his upcoming still-to-be-defined legal issue. Mukasey is the son of Michael Mukasey who was Bush's AG at the time Jeffrey Epstein received a plea deal. Marc used to work at Rudy's law firm. https://t.co/xDh7yJ0vCJ

"What in the hell is the matter with wanting people to vote?" Mark McKinnon, fmr. adviser to fmr. President George W. Bush, says about voter restriction laws being advanced by Texas Republicans. "Shouldn't we have more people voting rather than less?"https://t.co/jj01tRqerb

Don't be surprised that GOP voter suppression takes aim at local officials. Preempting local laws they don't like is an old Republican move.

Propaganda alert. We are witnessing the fabrication of an alternate reality about Jan.6. Trump, Carlson & GOP deny the violence of the coup attempt *and* blame that violence on the left. Exposing those fabrications is part of democracy protection. https://t.co/HQM1GsWNyQ
