"We have closely followed guidance from PHE on action to take following a suspected case of COVID on site, including additional cleaning.

"Our risk assessment outlines the measures we have already put in place to reduce the risk of transmission in parliament." Labour shadow minister Toby Perkins had raised concerns over Mr Sharma's appearance in the Commons earlier in the day., it's not up to him to soldier on, he is jeopardising the health of everyone who he comes across and everyone else who touches that despatch box and every door handle he touches etc," Mr Perkins tweeted.

"Maybe he's had a test and knows it's not that, but if so he should confirm that to people watching, otherwise the message again goes out that what the government says and means about what to do if you have symptoms are two different things." Digital voting in the Commons was ended on Tuesday when MPs approved a government motion introduced by Commons Leader Jacob Rees-Mogg despite widespread objections.

Did you see the snots in that tissue. That green colour means he's a sick boy.

This is the 21st Century. Bizzarely, the HouseofCommons had voted to go back to the 20th Century by voting out remote attendance for MPs. And now MPs attend the House while being clearly ill. Sheer madness.

Sign and Retweet

On the one hand there’s modern slavery. On the other there’s legitimate trade which is gay. U choose

Hope it's not Covid...but either way, forcing MPs back was a mistake... ---and driven by the sole desire to give Boris some rousing support in the Commons.

And the Oscar goes to..........

Hope he was isolated.

Look who’s back..! lockdown covid19 coronavirus
