A former member of the UK Government's scientific advisory group says Britain took the right measures against coronavirus but did so too late.

Probably true in hindsight.  Unfortunately, the scientific consensus at that time was that coronavirus infections were doubling only every 5 to 7 days so a lock down wasn't recommended. 

They've since discovered the virus was doubling every 2 to 3 days. They didn't know that at the time.

Three people are killed in a stabbing attack in a park in the English town of Reading, with an eyewitness describing how a knifeman turned on people after "shouting some unintelligible words".

Who knows? Couple of sisters stabbed in a North London park 10 days ago. Yesterday some chap stabs three  to death in a Reading park. Are they connected? 

Since the police haven't described this as a terrorist attack, and we know nothing about victims or perpetrator, we'll just have to wait on more info.

I am the stupid idiot who actually read (some of) this article and peered out at that fat orange piece of doctored femininity!

Will I never learn!

I owe you one Di!

Is this the idiot who boils her water in the cup in a microwave?

Yes
