Limit political journalists at UK Gov Covid 19 Press Briefings

Petition Details

Limit the number of political journalists asking questions at the daily press briefings for Covid 19. Each news organisation should only be allowed to send a political or economics journalist once a week, and the rest of time must send science or health specialists.

Additional Information

The quality of the questions has been extremely poor, asking repeat questions, questions treating the crisis as a chance to make an impression, or generally unhelpful questions. It wastes everyones time, when what we need are people who understand something about how we can work through the crisis.
