Fortunately, our expert team is here to bring you calm, balanced coverage, on everything from the ‘circuit breaker’ rules of local lockdowns to the countries you can still visit on holiday. Tom Lawrence, meanwhile, takes readers on a trip through South Dakota, the US state which has sparked comparisons to Sweden in shunning lockdown measures. You’ll enjoy uncompromising opinion, too. Ross Clark writes that Boris Johnson’s confusion ‘captures the chaos’ of local lockdowns, while Tom Harris suggests that the Prime Minister is still acting in good faith, drawing compelling parallels between Johnson and The Lord of the Rings’ ill-advised King Thoden. By contrast, Rishi Sunak’s stock is soaring. Former Conservative party chairman Norman Tebbit states that the Chancellor is in ‘pole position’ to succeed the Prime Minister. At the same time, Alexandra Phillips and Ben Habib urge Mr Sunak to get Britain out of its current crisis by embracing a ‘clean break Brexit’.

With her characteristic humour, Allison Pearson, herself the mother of a current student, imagines what life in a quarantined university flat is like. Marianna Hunt, meanwhile, has been learning more about how refunds for tuition fees and rents will work, what’s already been done and what students themselves have to say.
