Let's turn these briefings into a drinking game, every time they say err or um take a shot, should make them more bearable to watch 😂

Haha no media Zoom today - what a relief!!

It's a miracle

bbc5live Press Conference all over in 35 minutes: is Alok on a promise!

bbc5live Bullshit

BBC. Budget Broadcasting Corporation. They can't even show the slides properly. When the minister who was doing a fantastic job impersonating Steve (really interesting ) Davis asked for slides they never appeared and when the professor did his presentation one couldn't read them

Get him to fuck

I wonder if AlokSharma_RDG has any idea how critical the university's overall financial position is?

Couldn't see the slides today can you sort that by tomorrow

bbc5live they circumventing normal testing protocols then... fair enough

I hope you didn’t sign anything. We have a cure. Why can’t doctors access it?

Keep ur vaccine, I will boost my immune system with vitamin c,d and zinc.

Once these Govt briefing’s end, what on Earth will Twitters resident left wing plant pots do next to embarrass themselves on a daily basis?

So we will work to have 30million doses ready by September but the vaccine trial will only be moving on to the 2nd stage in October? alokSharma and the government are making up so called news as they go along.

Excellent... ...pity the BBC aren’t competent enough to show the charts!

Making a lot of money in the process

That’s a fab headline 👍

BBCPolitics And I would like to pay tribute to Alok Sharma’s drive and determination to completely avoid answering any question he asked. Bravo, jolly good show you incompetent buffoon.

Steve Powis, 'er ah er ah er er ah er ah er ah er er ah er ah er ah er er ah er ah er er ah er ah er er ah er ah er ah er er ah er ah er ah er er ah er ah er er ah er ah er er ah er ah er ah er er ah er ah er ah er er ah er ah er'

What is the point of a media briefing if most of the questions are not being answered by Mr Sharma. An insult to the public’s intelligence!

What a complete load of old rubbish, if they have a vaccine by September I’ll eat my hat and it’s a bloody big hat 🎩!

We could not see any of the slides today for some reason. This is the main daily update we receive from the government whilst in the middle of a national crisis and is unacceptable.

What has happened to the slides being shown in the briefing? - yesterday they were too big for the screen - today they have to be viewed from afar - no closeup. As this briefing is many peoples ONLY trusted news source on covid- important the graphics are checked Number10press

BBCPolitics Oh no Switch off Not more empty phrases and lies

BBCPolitics Why no close up of the slides today. Kept saying “you can see” no we can’t

Would it be at all possible for us to SEE the graph slides?! Unbelievable!!

People who didn’t see the slides ... watch sky news, they never have a problem.

Please show the slides 🤔

Who's been to a garden centre? (Gove lockdownuk COVID19 NHSThankYou)

Are the slides going to fit the screen today or is that why they aren’t being shown at all?

Slides

Where's the slides¿? BBC get your act together use your cameramen

Why are you not showing the slides from the briefing

No slides yet again...pathetic switching to Sky

Would help if we could see the slides on update 🤷‍♀️

BBCPolitics To be honest I’ve been lied to 6 days this week. Think I’m gonna take today off thanks...👍

Slides!? Where are the slides

Talking about the slides about can't see them!

Come on BBC news where are the f’n slides

Show us the slides then

No thanks. Same shit, different day.

Slides?

Stay alert by working from home when you can. Never gets old!

Where is the interview with lord sumption? Absolutely brilliant conversation, totally blow your narrative and lies out of the water ... Show that interview here if you are really unbiased

bbc5live Where’s John Nott? falklandsspirit
