Prime Minister full of bluster but offered little in the way of answers during TV interview - and no apology

As the Prime Minister's warns of a 'tough' Christmas and beyond on The Andrew Marr Show this morning, Deputy Leader of the Liberal Democrats Daisy Cooper said:

"The Prime Minister's admission will leave people rightly worried about their loved ones. Sadly, as has become all too common with this Prime Minister, there was a lot of bluster but little in the way of answers.

"It is now all the more important for the Government to take responsibility for its failures and deliver a comprehensive strategy to test, trace and isolate every case of coronavirus to keep people safe and prevent new surges.

"It is also past time the Prime Minister shared his concerns with the Chancellor. To protect livelihoods in the months ahead, we need to see an extension of the furlough scheme, protection for excluded groups, and new investment to create jobs - especially in the green economy."
