NHS staff should not be sacked for refusing to get jabbed. If ‘my body, my choice’ means anything at all, it means the right to refuse an injection without losing your livelihood.
Disgraced ex-Health Secretary Matt Hancock has called for immediate mandatory vaccination of NHS staff. His article is full of factual and logical errors, however, and puts his authoritarian impulse on stark display.
In the latest London Calling, the topics are Amanda Pritchard's misleading claim about Covid hospital admissions, Matt Hancock's widely ridiculed op ed in the Telegraph and James Delingpole's inability to answer emails.
The former Health Secretary Matt Hancock has called for mandatory vaccination for NHS staff to be introduced before winter. Sajid Javid, instead, wants to wait until April.
Following a wave of criticism around Matt Hancock's job offer at the United Nations less than a week ago, the former Health Secretary has been told the offer has been withdrawn because of a technicality.
Matt Hancock tried to make a modest re-entry into public life this afternoon in the House of Commons debate about the Government's National Insurance hike. It didn't go well.

Allies of Sajid Javid say his approach to Covid will be so different to Hancock's because he is less "nanny state-ish". But in his first speech as Health Secretary, he will tell Brits that July 5th is too soon to unlock.
Sajid Javid appears not to have got the memo about perpetuating restrictions on flimsy pretexts as in his first full day in office he has said he wants the country to "return to normal as quickly as possible".
We're publishing an original piece today by the historian and Lockdown Sceptics' regular Guy de la Bédoyère about the demise of Matt Hancock, which he is deliriously happy about.
