The Covid Inquiry finds that if Boris Johnson had called the first lockdown even one week earlier then it could have saved at least 20,000 lives.

Dominic Cummings and Boris Johnson need to stand at the Old Bailey, charged with neglect and manslaughter.

I know this is very cliche but watching my 5 year old grow and go though the struggles of learning to read and realising that he will be able to read and learn things by himself is just incredible.

Journalists - if the person you are all trying to question insults one of your peers and them comes to you, the only reasonable response is to defer back to the insulted journo or to repeat their question. It’s not just about integrity - our main job is to make sure difficult questions are answered

This shocking claim was treated as fact by the channel which promoted the clip on social media where it was amplified by AI.

Amazing show. It’s done really well.
But if ABBA came on the scene today, they wouldn’t make it in the Top 100 chart.
They had the foresight to stop when they did and be forever remembered as they were in their prime.
