BBC rant of the day.
Good to see you dumb fucks sending a reporting team to stand outside the hospital where Captain Tom is staying. The article just wouldn't have had the same impact otherwise.
Also enjoying the responsible sports segments, where it typically begins with a picture of hugging footballers. Bravo.

9 million now vaccinated with 600,000 people reported vaccinated in last 24 hrs.
Medical Centre up the road in St Austell jabbed more people against coronavirus on Friday than the total number vaccinated in Australia, New Zealand, Latvia, Lithuania and Ecuador combined.
Not sure that's really a worthy comparison.
What is the status of the vaccine programmar in those countries? What's the supply like?
Great effort. Well done. But it's kind if a dumb statement.
Is this your debut into the UK media?

Note 7.3m under 65 fatties, and other at risk.
Surely that's 7.3m people, some of whom are 65 years of age with no co-morbidities and the rest who are under 65 with co-morbitidies.
Even taking the 65 year olds out of the mix, that's a lot of people 'at risk'
Just under 11% of the UK population
The UK is the on the ottoman 'The Sick Man of Europe'
-
@MiketheSnow There are 2.9m total in 65-69 band. But only 1.8m in 'healthy' 60-64 band. Which suggests at least 1.1m unhealthy in 60-64 band, or 38%!

@canefan What a last 12 months he had though eh? Raised 32 mill quid for the NHS, promoted to colonel, knighted, #1 on the Pop charts, holiday in Bahamas. Through it all he came across as a bit amused by it all and just a decent old bloke.
Too sick with pneumonia to get the vaccine so I figure his time was up. Cracking innings though 100 and out.

@MiketheSnow you are definitely getting the "most banged drum" award in the 2021 Fernies. 😉

Nice words. Got this on a chat too which I thought was great.
“ Poor old capt Tom didn’t stand a chance at 100 yrs plus Covid pneumonia. Inspiration to all in a society which too much leans towards lack of respect to the elderly”

@Victor-Meldrew A wise man once said "The earlybird catches the worm." Clearly this didn't resonate with the walaahs at the EU
Kate Bingham deserves a Damehood or whatever it is they give women.
PS: In Peston tweeted and quoted a pro-Remain AZ director as saying he now fully understood the rationale for Brexit..

And the lines of descent often went sideways?
