Prime Minister Boris Johnson has been admitted to hospital for tests, 10 days after testing positive for chinky flu, Downing Street has said.
He was taken to a London hospital on Sunday evening with “persistent symptoms” – including a temperature.
It is said to be a “precautionary step” taken on the advice of his doctor.
The prime minister remains in charge of the government, but the foreign secretary is expected to chair a coronavirus meeting on Monday morning.
Mr Johnson is expected to stay overnight and is having what have been described as “routine tests”, according to BBC Political Editor Laura Kuenssberg.
In a statement, a Downing Street spokeswoman said: “On the advice of his doctor, the prime minister has tonight been admitted to hospital for tests.
“This is a precautionary step, as the prime minister continues to have persistent symptoms of coronavirus 10 days after testing positive for the virus.”

Have a good evening and stay safe

cunt since 1066 is first in on this one so.
Catherine Calderwood
Who you ask? This pure cunt was Scotland’s Chief Medical Officer. Ten days ago she gave out the grave and serious advice that nobody, I repeat nobody, should make any unnecessary journeys. She said to the people of Scotland, in not so many words, ‘do not leave your house, your bothy, or your shitty Glasgow scheme to get even a can of Irn Bru or deep fried Mars Bar. We are all in this together’. Meanwhile, while the rest of the Jocks are following her words to the letter and genuinely putting up with lockdown hardship, Mrs Calderwood has travelled not once but twice to her second home in Fife.
Wee Jimmy Crankie has even tried to defend her saying she has important work to do, but Calderwood has since resigned. As always it’s one rule for you lot and another set of much nicer rules for us. Catherine Calderwood, what a complete cunt. I hope the locals in Fife burn down her second, I will say it again, second home..
Apparently, we will be judged by how this iffy period was policed…
Business as usual for thieving me-do-as-I-likeys, county lines gangs (saw a postcard, “County lines at work, by night…” Don’t shoot til you see the headlights on their Beemers.
Policing by Consent is bizarre; we don’t pay taxes “by consent”; there’s the Tax Office, and the VAT squad, and woe betide… Is being arrested voluntary ??
Police need to ENFORCE the law; particularly vandalism against emergency vehicles (mindless chavsqhum behaviour at any time, but especially now. Also a few reported attacks of food shops; yes, mindless looting will be with us soon…(Italians are threatening it in Italy; given how diluted the Stiff Upper Lip has become over here…)
Luscious WPO: “Are you going to come quietly, Sir ?”
Me: “No, I’ll moan and pant and gasp as loudly as I like. So long as it’s consensual, Vera, and you’re OK with that.”
Neil Basu looks like a womble – a very pointless, indolent cockwomble.
