Cloud Potato posted:Are the Guardian and Times not tabloids nowadays? Yes and no. They are tabloid sized but are still viewed as not tabloids for historical reasons. So it's called "compact". But then Mail also traditionally in a different class to tabloids with the Express. It is all kinda meaningless.

He was pretty on point with the people lounging in their expansive back yard while others were stuck in their high rise flat during the first lockdown too, but it's all because he doesn't like any public health, not because of his concern for any hypothetical worker.
