Good morning.
Why does every BBC news bulletin report the tory backbench headbangers 'demanding' lifting of lockdown?

Because they are permanently available for comment?

Revealed: Cummings' role in handing Covid contract to firm run by 'friends'
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/ ... by-friends" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
When the Guardian and openDemocracy first revealed in July last year that Public First had been awarded a contract without tender, the Cabinet Office said in a statement it was “nonsense” to suggest the owners’ long associations with Cummings and Gove were a factor in the decision to award it a contract.
However, in a witness statement submitted to the high court on Monday as part of a judicial review of the award, Cummings described himself as the “driving decision-maker” behind the government’s decision to conduct more focus groups and hire Public First, and said his faith in the company was based on his extensive experience working with its staff.
