Spot on from
@guardian - many of us have been calling for a#VirtualParliament to be recalled *now* Technology means it would be perfectly possible for MPs to be holding Government to account - and to be seen to be doing so. It couldn’t be more urgent https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2020/apr/08/the-guardian-view-on-parliament-in-lockdown-time-for-a-virtual-recall?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other … -

Whats the reason of holding Punjab Assembly’s session in a private hotel? Can someone let me know who owns the hotel?
Makes no sense spending extra on such private hotels why cant they be cost effective and try going towards a virtual session?#virtualparliament#DigitalDemocracy -
The complete and utter lack of accountability is a scandal. We need a mechanism for Parliament to be able to question and challenge ministers on a range of issues -. PPE, testing, oxygen supplies, repatriation of Brits, financial support for those left behind.

#virtualparliament should happen as quickly as possible. The government needs holding to account.

Keir Starmer destroys Dominic Raab in
