Summary

We have a round up on all things Covid and hysterical. From the people who think it's a choice between pubs and schools to those who want to live their lives in giant hamster balls. We also have a little update from the world of woke, with the latest batty ideas for stuff to ban. We finish with a fictional fight between Patel & Sturgeon. It's a dirty one.

Today, the Bank of England, I record this on the Thursday, the Bank of England have upgraded their economic predictions.
