Making #masks mandatory in the UK is better than nothing. Enforcing the wearing of masks with fixed penalty tickets, perhaps with spot checks, even better. Let’s just all of us do it for everyone’s benefit. Sajid Javid Professor Chris Whitty

Have people got so little respect for their own lives that they won’t take #Covid19 precautions just because Dominic Cummings popped up to the North East or there was a party at #10DowningStreet. How daft is that? It’s an excuse that can be deadly.

Festive cheer at the gates to #StrawberryFields in #Liverpool. New Year's Eve and a there's a steady procession of overseas tourists wanting to follow in the footsteps of #JohnLennon. The #Beatles legacy is as important to Liverpool as #Shakespeare was to #StratfordUponAvon.

Just a few pots and pans…. and you can curl away as these Chinese pensioners demonstrate….

Help please! I’m trying to make contact with former player & football coach #BOBHOUGHTON. Any help much appreciated. #BristolCity, #MaidstoneUnited, #HastingsUnited. [email protected]

Latest figures show sales of the print edition of my old paper #LiverpoolEcho is 20,158, a 14% drop over the last set of figures. When I joined the #LDPE the daily circulation was in the hundreds of thousands, and it was a must in most homes. How long will it survive, I wonder.

Chancellor #RishiSunak told #LauraKuenssberg on #BBCnewcast that #coronavirus is 'BEHIND US'.Hours later #ONS reported around 5 million of us in the UK have the virus (1-in-13). Around 20,000 are in hospital + over 1,100 Covid deaths in the last week. Is it really behind us?

While we are all told by #BorisJohnson we have to ‘learn to live with #Covid’ some of us are having to learn to DIE with Covid. Covid toll reported on official dashboard Wednesday,April 13 = 651 deaths in one day. Unlucky for some hey! Life’s no party…..

Maybe #Uefa, the result of the #LiverpoolFC vs #RealMadrid game should be voided and replayed as far away as possible from #France. The chaos must have had an impact on and off the pitch. Oh, and France should not be allowed to host an international game for 10 years (at least)

Will it be payback time for #Liverpool in the battle with #Glasgow to host #EurovisionSongContest in 2023. In the nineties both great cities went head-to-head to host Britain’s first #CityOfArchitecture in 1999 and the winner was Glasgow. Will it be 2-0… or 1-1? Eurovision Song Contest

Some people say Sunday’s #sunset over the #RiverMersey was one of the best ever seen….

Playful seal in the Mersey early Saturday evening, off Otterspool Prom near to Grassendale end. So close to the prom wall its snorting could be clearly heard. Nice to see sealife returning to the river….

So sad to here of the passing of Lady Doreen Jones. Lady D, alongside her late husband Sir Trevor ‘the Vote’ Jones, were a dynamic duo Liberal Democrats in Liverpool politics for some 30 years before and after the turn of the 21st century.
