Weird how Eurovision got cancelled yet Iceland still won pic.twitter.com/p2pCM72j64

Some absolute bangers this year. Hello @Eurovision just do these acts again at the start of next year and then give Iceland the win and then do another contest in May. 2021 needs TWO EUROVISIONS. #Eurovision

Tunes in to #Eurovision for some cheering up:
"Loving this song, bet they're about to do something unexpected and great"
Song cuts abruptly, they are now sat alone looking like they're in a hostage video:
"Hi guys, I'm feeling pretty sad about death"

All week I've been trying to control the virus but it's really hard. There are so many other factors.

Best quote from today’s briefing…. “I can’t imagine a child would ever want to eat something from another child’s lunchbox “

Great to see some pop-up cycle lanes in London! But if they are anything like pop-up tents, I bet they are a nightmare to get back in the bag… 😬
— Paul Barber (@paulbarber3) May 17, 2020
Millennials and Gen Z are supportive of lockdown largely to protect *others*: their parents, grandparents, vulnerable people their age, etc. Lockdown has a high cost on them, and they're willingly bearing it.
Mocking them as scared for their own sake is a cheap shot that misses.

The weekend is over, so it's almost time to stop watching people talk on a screen for fun and time to start watching people talk on a screen for work.

I think Cummings might have just unlocked lockdown. Young people in my house who’ve been obedient so far saying “stuff the rules.. if he didn’t follow them why should we”. It’s not about politics.. it’s about leadership.
