The televised briefings are expected to be vehicles for the Conservative government to report on its policies.

They are expected to run in a similar way to White House press briefings with Ms Stratton answering questions on behalf of the Prime Minister and government.

As a politically-appointed special adviser, rather than an impartial civil servant, she will be able to take aim at opponents as well as defend the Government's actions.

So long as they cut the sign language I be happy. Daytime BBC show us virus updates from Edinburgh and Cardiff with sign language person taking the stage. It's OK we get the gist of the story, and if we don't we have subtitles available.

They're trying to pull the wool over our eyes. What do they take us for?

OK Mr Johnson, bring on ... Rowan Atkinson.

Subtitles no use for the illiterate or those who can't speak English. When it comes to sign language we should probably not be using British sign language but Indo-Pakistani sign language instead.

That's a good idea, yes. Now all we have to do is get them to watch it.
