Americans lost on the streets of Liverpool after the Taylor Swift concert 🇺🇸
I hope they had a ball and go home with lots of crazy stories about Liverpool 😂
If a car had exploded in front of a hospital in London today, it would’ve been live crews and rolling news coverage. Liverpool, no. I’m getting news of my home city during this shocking time from regional journalists on Twitter and WhatsApp groups. Shameful really.
The US election is tomorrow. If you, like me, are tired of horse-race-style reporting, and need to zoom out, I wanna tell you a story. It’s about an ancient force influencing the election. And, as a bonus, it’ll give you an Easter egg to watch for as the returns come in. THREAD

Very bad tweet from BBC journalist implying the people of Liverpool simply forgot there’s a global pandemic on and not that messaging is so bad the situation has spiralled. Blaming the public yet again.
Liverpool is just an example of how the number of Covd-19 infections has ballooned in a fortnight. Everyone really needs to start remembering all the rules. Hand-washing, masks, distancing, minimising unnecessary contact. How did we forget so soon?
