I certainly do. Can’t often fault it either, but maybe you’d like to recommend a better alternative.

Tongue in cheek-

If Matt Hancock announced the UK had created a vaccine for Covid 19, the press questions I'd expect would run something like this.

BBC: Will you apologise for not creating a vacine sooner?

ITV: Is it true that it contains animal products?

C4: Wouldn't it have been quicker and more lives would have been saved, had the UK joined the EU vaccination scheme?

SKY: You said creating a vaccine would take a year? Do you now accept that you were misleading parliament, the media and the general public?

Daily Mirror: Isn't it true that austerity stopped the vaccine being made earlier?

Guardian: Do you accept the evidence suggesting that vaccines are racially biased?

Even the Aussies are taking the piss now.

Would be funnier if you hadn't nabbed it from somewhere

Here's the ITN news headlines.

1, the good news that today's death toll is the lowest since March.

2, Boris is back, but is under pressure to announce the lifting of the lockdown.

3, farmer about to be put out of business

4, Spanish kids are allowed out to play

5, somebody dressed as a telephone is running a marathon in their back garden.

Actually, one of them wasn't mentioned, answers on a postcard.

Tbf guys - mac and Adi - I really wish we could be talking about football (or cricket) too...but there really isn’t any. Even transfer talk is on hold for the foreseeable.
