'Covid vaccine passports would be un-British'

Dear Reader,
Sir Keir Starmer has found himself in an awkward spot throughout the pandemic, caught between doing the job of the Opposition and being seen to politicise a national crisis. Ahead of May’s local elections, he spoke exclusively to Ben Riley-Smith and set out Labour’s stall as the party of law and order.
Boris Johnson, meanwhile, joined 23 other world leaders, including Emmanuel Macron and Angela Merkel, in calling for a new international treaty to better prepare the world for the next health crisis. The Telegraph exclusively published their joint OpEd, which you can read here.
While Britain continues to make steady progress in its vaccine rollout, multiple countries have added or changed restrictions on the use of the Oxford-AstraZeneca jab that forms the backbone of the UK’s programme. British and European health authorities insist it is safe, so what’s going on? Paul Nuki explains what has got some countries worried and why the risk-reward balance still favours the jab.
One of the great unknowns remains how close to normal life after lockdown will be, and perhaps the biggest uncertainty lies around the return to the office. Rishi Sunak, the Chancellor, is keen for workers to head back in, but what about the employees themselves? In this fascinating piece, Marina Gask and Christina Patterson look at how lockdown has changed attitudes to work and why Tuesday’s mini-heatwave was the perfect illustration.
Happy Easter,
Chris
