Boris Johnson’s got a new Covid-19 slogan: ‘Hands, Face, Space’ – 17 favourite responses
As you might have seen by now, Boris Johnson’s got a new three-word catchphrase in the government’s fight against Covid-19.
It’s ‘Hands, Face, Space’. As in wash your hands, wear a mask (on your face) and maintain social distance. That’s the space bit.
"I think I repeated that often enough?"
Boris Johnson is heard checking with Professor Chris Witty after reiterating the "hands, face, space, get a test" slogan.

Johnson: “Hands, Face, Space. I think that was pretty punchy, wasn’t it?”
No, it wasn’t. And perhaps constantly trying to reduce complex advice to three-word slogans is part of the problem.
