This isn't true. We've checked.
The very definition of fake news - and the reason why giving a blue tick to anyone who'll pay for it is a horrible idea.
Also, any outlet that talks about "breaking rumours" should be viewed with inherent suspicion.
🚨BREAKING: Rumours of Axel Rudakubana being left unconscious after two prisoners managed to get into his cell

Seeing claims again that bike schemes slowed London buses. The figures show no such relationship. Camden and City, w/ many tracks and LTNs, saw 2nd and 3rd lowest falls in bus speeds 2013-24. The worst boros include Wandsworth and Ealing, which did no schemes or pulled them out.

I’m gutted to hear of the death of #Howard Hughes. We worked together at Capital - what a broadcaster! He lived and breathed radio. Do listen to this radio conversation with @DavidLloydRADIO podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcas…

Another driver choosing to overtake into oncoming traffic. It's more and more common. Simple solution: look further down the road than the vehicle in front.

I would have probably mentioned that Dyson owns 36,000 acres of farmland in England which was previously liable for zero inheritance tax

What a bizarre article
Public sector pensions disappear on death and cannot be bequests to kids, so the effective tax rate (if you insist on doing like this)…
…is 100%

You don't have to be a @CambridgeUtdFC fan/addict like me to appreciate the beauty and emotion of the account by @DavidWalshST of a late away goal for a struggling third-tier football team. It's about so, so much more.
THE REAL THING
TV football is addictive – but being there is so much better

Without irony Thames Water tells me it's returning water 'safely' to the environment. The bill has four elements: Fresh Water - rate + 7.7% on previous six months; fixed charge + 23.9%; Wastewater + 15.17%; fixed wastewater charge +13.2%.
