Michael Spicer hilariously explains how to exploit a massive loophole in the Covid rules
One detail from Boris Johnson’s announcement of a move to Plan B Covid regulations had people scratching their heads.
‘Work from home but go to Christmas parties!’
If any single policy perfectly exemplifies Boris Johnson’s disastrous handling of the covid pandemic, this is surely it?
Utter nonsense.— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) December 8, 2021
The 🛒 is such a total 🤡 his policy on omicron is – it's so dangerous work from home, but carry on with christmas parties theyre cool… Are MPs realising yet this farce will end their careers if they dont remove the entire dysfunctional court pronto?

Please remember that under Covid Plan B rules you must now work from home, unless you have to come into work for a party.#DowningStreetBriefing

Actor, author and comedian Michael Spicer spotted it.
Work from home but go to the office party. That’s a real thing that was said by the leader of the country this evening. Merry Christmas.

Being the satirical maestro he is, in the time it takes for three more Downing Street parties to come to light, he’d shared this hilarious sketch of someone exploiting the loophole.

As if that weren’t enough, he followed it up with this uncanny impersonation of just about every unfortunate Tory MP who has been shoved in front of a camera for the last week.

They should play that on the news shows – save the MPs claiming the taxi fare.
