Let me break it down simple since the world got confused: Airborne means the air you breathe is how the virus moves. Not the doorknob, not the desk, not the thing that you touched — it’s the whole damn room that’s doing too much. Someone breathes, leaves, you walk in — boom, exposure. The air holds receipts; surfaces got amnesia. Every breath is a deal: clean air = safe; dirty air = real. That’s why masks hit, why ventilation’s legit, why filters win fights you don’t even know you’re in. Your friend caught COVID from a room that “seemed fine”? Yeah — the air remembers. Surfaces don’t. That’s the line.

Farage should never be interviewed without being forced to answer for failures of Brexit. That the man whose lies fuelled Brexit vote which has cost UK Billions & who said Liz Truss budget was “best Tory budget since 1986” could be trusted on *anything* is mind-boggling #bbclaura

Chronic stupidity here; net migration went up AFTER Brexit. A youth mobility scheme (or free movement) would let young people travel & work; EU youth returning to their countries; exactly what the vast majority of EU citizens used to do. It might even lead to net emigration!

“No return to the customs union, to the single market or to free movement and that remains the case” says Home Secretary @YvetteCooperMP It’s difficult to reconcile the governments stubborn & entrenched position on Brexit with its policy of “growth, growth, growth”

@RoyalMailHelp just wondering if my delivery is coming today? Royal Mail 48 hrs tracking should have arrived yesterday. Need it for tomorrow for BT broadband installation. Been waiting in all day yesterday and now today. OR293236608GB will have to amend BT booking if necessary.

Word of the day is ‘recrudescence’ (17th century): the return of something terrible after a time of reprieve.
