@BBCNews I can’t believe the obvious bias in the questions being asked by @kirstywark I respect her as a very able broadcaster but she is prefacing most of her questions and statements with “the SNP needs” & similar-Her personal bias is showing to the detriment of her reporting

@johnsweeneyroar Narcissm out-Compassion in - USA & the World breathes a sigh of relief!

[Andrew Johnson @andrewbjohnson8]

@Tiffanyemma Brilliant! Just sums it up - a big ego with no substance humbled by the power of US society & values....

@emilyhewertson Both still possible & outcome not yet clear. If Trump loses Ohio = very significant as rust belt state. Biden seems to be winning higher population density counties and is well ahead of Clinton at its stage. As it stands it is more obviously Trump’s to lose = Texas & N Carolina??

@emilyhewertson CNN putting the BBC & Sky to shame: Factual accuracy is outweighing biased commentary hands down. Improved granularity & timing of data being utilised to maximum effect.

@pantomath__ “I have the best relationship with China of any President of the US-period. They recognised their respect for my greatness & sent me this suit. It looks so great in my mirror that I’ve ordered 500 more for my friends & family. Plus each one has a disinfectant anti-Covid lining!”

@charlotteahenry Why? Could it be that you belong to the most self entitled self indulgent generations yet? You really don’t understand that you are far better off than we ever were: income tax base rate was 35% when I started work, inflation was 15%, interest rates at 13%, min 25% deposits....

@maitlis My question for the Americast team is : “What does this say about the unity of world religions and the power of prayer?”.... Thank you

Anyone with doubts about wearing a mask should consider this evidence... Anyone determined not to wear a mask for selfish or predudicial reasons should just self isolate for the sake of the rest of us!! The inconvenience of glasses steaming up and other faux excuses do not wash!

[Rich Davis, PhD, D(ABMM), MLS🧫🦠 @richdavisphd]

What does a mask do? Blocks respiratory droplets coming from your mouth and throat.

Two simple demos:

First, I sneezed, sang, talked & coughed toward an agar culture plate with or without a mask. Bacteria colonies show where droplets landed. A mask blocks virtually all of them.

If true this is an appalling reflection of the low level of progressive and socially responsible leadership in national sports organisations. Every organisation should reflect the society it serves. National bodies must lead the way #BlackLivesMatter #Equality @newsnight @afneil

[Leigh Moore @Leigh_Moore]

This is a shameful reflection on our National sports!

Wonderful Ruby Wedding yesterday, lovely celebration dinner together cooked by our daughter Harriet. What a contrast to 40 years ago - my stomach has never been so flat since!!

@SteveBakerHW Could a valid use for the Nightingale Hospitals that have been set up be as facilities to handle Covid-19 cases only? This would facilitate the exit from Lockdown by freeing up other acute hospitals to treat the patients that have held back over the past 6 weeks.
