Labour leader criticises prime minister for ‘chopping and changing’ policies on coronavirus restrictions
Keir Starmer has accused Boris Johnson of presiding over a “summer of chaos” due to confused policies and mixed messaging over Covid restrictions, also indicating potential Labour misgivings about plans for vaccine-based Covid passports.
In a prime minister’s questions in which Johnson appeared virtually from his official country retreat of Chequers, where he is self-isolating, the prime minister also chose to not reject claims by Dominic Cummings that he opposed lockdown because most Covid fatalities were in their 80s.
