Lewis Hamilton has prepared a dramatic finale at the end of the year on the F1 calendar after winning the chaotic Saudi Grand Prix – along with red flags and controversial reboots. The political calendar has a dramatic end to the end of the year following the controversial resumption of pre-departure tests for coronavirus. The omicron version continues to raise a whole host of red flags. Which makes us wonder how a man in a hot seat, Boris Johnson, could steer the direction toward Christmas when it comes to the edges of Covid.

Inside the bubble

Good morning at the High Court, where we will hear a ruling by the FDA’s civil service union challenging Boris Johnson’s decision that Priti Patel did not violate the ministerial code on allegations of intimidation. Meanwhile, the government will set its 10-year strategy to fight drugs.

Daily briefing

FUTURE SHOCKS: A gloomy start to Monday morning. Professor Sarah Gilbert, co-creator of the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine, noted that future pandemics could be more deadly than Covid. She said vaccines appeared to be less effective against omicron – and called on the government to “take steps to slow the spread”. Another top scientist said the latest tightening of travel rules is “closing the barn door after the horse snaps”. Professor Mark Woolhouse of the Spi-M Group argued that pre-departure tests for those coming to the UK came too late to make a “material difference”. After calling for a move last week, Labor patted each other on the back and said it was a “constant step forward”. But the Business Travel Association said survival would be “ruined.” Deputy Prime Minister Dominic Raab said the government has always been exposed to “goldsmith criticism” – some people say it is working too hard and others say it is not enough.

CENTURY SALES: Government plans to sell the vaccine plant in the UK will be leave the country vulnerable to emerging versions of Covid, warned the head of the Oxford Strike Center. Professor Adrian Hill said The Independent that the sale of the Vaccine Innovation Center (VMIC) in Harwell was such that you were “in a terrible war and you suddenly cut your defense budget sharply”. Labor MP Wes Streeting, the new shadow health minister, said it would be “incredibly short-sighted and complacent” to sell the VMIC amid a pandemic that is still raging. Meanwhile, concerns are growing about the slow introduction of amplifiers. Data show that at least 300,000 people locked in the house have not yet received a cure. The Telegraph.

TENDERERS IN STORM: Business Secretary Kwasi Kwarteng said it was “totally unacceptable” that power outages due to storm Arwen – mostly in the northeast – would last more than a week. The minister said the performance of energy companies would be reviewed. Shadow Labor Environment Secretary Jim McMahon said it was “incredible belief” that the government has not considered this a national priority so far, and argued that the response would be different if power outages affected the South. “Where was Boris Johnson? Why wasn’t Cobra called in to deal with it? ”Work has to deal with its own minor storm. Senior Assistant Angela Rayner has been suspended and put on trial for suspected personal data breaches, a clear sign a fight between her office and Keira Starmer’s team. It is understood that Rayner’s aide denies any breach and consults with his union.

COCAINE, FLOW ON MY DRAINAGE: Assembly Speaker Sir Lindsay Hoyle says he will forward allegations of widespread drug use in parliament to police. Report in Sunday Times he said cocaine was found in several toilets – All but one of the 12 toilets tested showed traces of Class A substance. Sir Lindsay said those who “despised the law” should be punished and the Commons authorities should consider using sniffer dogs on the estate. With flawless time, the government will pledge £ 700m today to tackle problematic drug use over the next three years. This could be seen by middle-class drug users confiscated passports and driving licenses, said Boris Johnson sun on sunday. The government will promise to break up 2,000 county gangs as part of its new plan.

THE SPIRIT OF THE CHRISTMAS PAST: Dominic Raab has rejected reports of Christmas parties at no. 10 last Christmas, when prison curbs were still considered a work of “anonymous sources”. The Minister of Justice added that if the evidence of the events were “actually realized, it would of course be wrong”. But he added that too the police “usually don’t” look back and investigate things this happened a year ago. Hmm. Honestly, the metropolitan police said it was a policy of the forces not to “routinely investigate retrospective violations” of Covid’s rules – but said they would still “take into account” letters she received from Labor MPs about holiday parties at Downing Street. It comes when a new poll shows that trust in politicians has fallen to a historically low level – 63 per cent said MPs are “for themselves”.

THEY WERE AFRAID OF THE LAW: Number 10 looks at a “new war” with judges to allow ministers to “drop all legal judgments they don’t like,” he says. Hours that morning. The newspaper claims that Boris Johnson is enthusiastic prevent courts from outvoting ministers through judicial reviews. One option would be an ‘interpretation law’ to erase findings that the government is not too keen on. Meanwhile, Raab had some interesting things to say when asked about Meghan Markle getting a complaint over Sunday Post Officepublication of excerpts from a letter to her father. The justice minister said he wanted to “fix” the shift towards privacy protection that prevails over freedom of speech. Raab suggested that his planned overhaul of human rights law would help move the country away from “continental-style privacy laws”.
