In a move to reassure the public, Gove said the government was functioning well without the prime minister, who was admitted to St Thomas’ hospital on Sunday night.

TBH either Hancock or Sunak being hospitalised would be more disruptive right now and Hancock is giving every impression of bungling the whole thing. The work of government can actually go on without the PM even in a global crisis.

Labour has just released a statement about a video meeting that its new leader, Sir Keir Starmer, and his deputy, Angela Rayner, had earlier with representatives of the UK Jewish community from the Board of Deputies of British Jews, the Jewish Leadership Council, the Community Security Trust and the Jewish Labour Movement.After it was over Starmer said that he had used the meeting to stress his commitment to setting up an independent complaints process for the party, cooperating fully with the Equality and Human Rights Commission’s inquiry into Labour and getting reports on all outstanding cases sent to him personally on a weekly basis. He added:Over the last few years, we have failed the Jewish community on antisemitism. Labour is a proudly anti-racist party and, going forward, it will not be enough to ‘pass the test’ on antisemitism. We need to set new standards for best practice.In a joint statement after the meeting Board of Deputies president Marie van der Zyl, JLC chair Jonathan Goldstein, CST chair Gerald Ronson and JLM chair Mike Katz,said:While we would have fully understood the need to focus entirely on coronavirus at this time, Keir Starmer has already achieved in four days more than his predecessor in four years in addressing antisemitism within the Labour party.
