Description: As a Tory Cabinet minister tells the Times newspaper that the Omicron crisis puts the government in a "Remarkable position" and "should put us in a good place for the new year", we look carefully at the facts - what do we know, how bad is it, and how do we avoid another lockdown? We are joined by Prof. Deenan Pillay from University College London - and the TUC's Shelly Asquith to explain how the atrociously low level of statutory sick pay is fuelling the pandemic. Also - as Labour thrash the Tories in Worthing, we look at the lessons the party can draw from it it with local activist Hilary Schan-Martyn.
