Summary
Today they assess: Donald Trump's media savvy as he recovers from COVID-19, the sheer scale of American election campaigns, how voters in the States are feeling, why what we see on TV isn't the real USA, Boris Johnson's latest speech and Prime Ministerial performance, why nothing seems to be normal, Scotland's draconian lockdown measures, whether exams really give you the right to a more worthy opinion, a crazy weekend of football scores and whether Saudi Arabian wind is really a target we should be aiming for. No hot air here, it's the Thought Police.
