Hang on a minute. Are you saying that you don’t believe those Russian FSB agents weren’t in Salisbury to visit the cathedral and see its 123m spire?

No you’re right. Everyone knows it’s a regular day trip from Moscow to Salisbury and Porton Down had plumbing problems with its Novichok supply just like the synthetic coronavirus pipe leak in that facility in China.

That newsnight reporter last night would be able to get it to confess. If they ever let it answer the question of course.

She was a little truculent, but thought Zahawi was being an evasive ****. She should have been more controlled, however.

Maitlis normally very good tbf and I think she’s extremely attractive. I find her intelligence very sexy and I reckon she’d be a good laugh too.
 
Still big mismatch on food supply where farmers had contracts with catering (e.g. supplying eggs to Macdonald's) and now need to sell to supermarkets (who don't want the eggs in boxes of hundreds) and dairy farmers with no outlet for milk.

Based on a conversation I had yesterday, I understand the government have directly intervened in relation to the production and supply of eggs. Makes sense, given the shortage there’s been in the last couple of weeks.

It's interesting this. Dyson don't really make anything in the UK. In fact they don't really make much at all they have 2 plants of their own which make the - Dyson Digital Motors which go into their products. Everything else is outsourced to contact manufacturers. And none of the above is in the UK. In the UK they have their R&D labs and the disbanded automotive development centre (the aerodrome is near Malmsbury in Gloucestershire) but no high volume manufacturing capabilities. So it is a bit of a mystery how they plan to produce 15,000 ventilators in the UK any time soon.

‘These figures do not cover a full 24 hour period’

It looks like yesterday’s numbers are from 1pm on the 24th to 9am on the 25th which would explain the lower than expected deaths total. Although it still could have been a drop even up to 1pm.

Could be quite a high number today if they do 9am yesterday to 1pm today.

It’s scary how many more deaths are to come if we “only” reach the 20,000 deaths that the Chief Scientific Adviser described as a good outcome. But if that is something like the final outcome it will not be long before we start hearing a resurgence of the “its only flu” comments. And then criticism that the measures being taken and the restrictions imposed were completely unjustified. It will be quickly forgotten by many that without those measures deaths would be in the hundreds of thousands

She’s gone back to their family home??? It’s not a holiday home, it’s their main home. She lives in her London house when she’s working and filming.

Don’t know what your problem with her is, other being posh and having a few bob.

Yep. When you read the article it states she has a family home in Devon. Nowhere near as outrageous as some are suggesting, and trolling her on social media is bang out of order.
