Summary

As COVID cases are back on the rise another lockdown looks likely, but has the Government blown its pandemic response? And how will Britain react to an autumn trapped indoors?

And after Priti Patel called on the nation to dob-in their neighbours for breaking lockdown rules, we ask the panel if they’re likely to snitch anytime soon. • “Every school and workplace is implementing different measures because there is no clarity” - Minnie Rahman • “Johnson has lost the country and I’m not sure there is a way of fixing it” - Alex Andreou • “I don’t think anyone has anything positive to say about the Home Office” - Minnie Rahman • “We’re going to deter people from coming to Britain who we badly need here” - Naomi Smith Produced and presented by Andrew Harrison with Naomi Smith, Alex Andreou and Minnie Rahman.
