Sabina Nessa was murdered as she walked home. Why is this not top of the news. We should all be furious. After Sarah Everard we said #nomore yet dozens of women have been killed since then. When is this going to end? #sayhername https://t.co/9kB6lB3PjK

We know that some fake news is funny but some can be very harmful, so really pleased to be part of the team who made this video on recognising disinformation

[Scottish Government @scotgov]

Before you share anything online, ask yourself: is it definitely true? Fake news about coronavirus can cause real harm. You can help #StopTheSpread.

Watch our video for tips on recognising false information. ⬇️

Help needed - my friend's 4 Yr old has CF & on the gov's priority list for supermarket delivery, but because she can't have an account (age 4!) they won't deliver to her family on her mum's acct. @Tesco @sainsburys saying not possible. Seems a massive loop hole! Please RT, thx
