Today Health Secretary Sajid Javid laid out his two plans for dealing with Covid going forward. Plan A proposes a booster shot for everyone over 50, combined with the flu jab. Plan A would also see contact tracing continue, along with self-isolation for the infected and financial support for those isolating. Then there's Plan B, which proposes vaccine passports and mask mandates in certain settings.

To discuss how these plans were received by the Commons, Katy Balls is joined by Isabel Hardman, James Forsyth and special surprise guest Fraser Nelson.
