Larry and Paul tackle the covid inquiry and ID cards in their ‘Real Daily Briefing’

You’ll probably have heard, by now, that the government will call an independent inquiry into its handling of the coronavirus crisis, but not until 2022.

People don’t necessarily have the most faith in it.

Larry Budd and Paul Dunphy turned their satirical gaze on that thorny issue, and more, in their alternative take on the Downing Street briefing. It’s two and a half minutes very well spent.

That new three-part slogan is a clear winner in the battle for hearts and minds.

And it’s always good to see our favourite angry Northern journalist.

Tweeters enjoyed the briefing very much.

Very, very good with just the right level of cynicism. Top marks! https://t.co/sMCUKisyTB
