The Government wasted £2.65 billion on failed or corrupt Covid emergency contracts in 2020-21. That's the same loss in one year as would occur in 50 - yes fifty - years of disability benefit fraud. If you want to cut fraud losses, disability benefits are the last place to go.

Random Fact

The quoted post is a photo of dogs not wolves.

You can tell subjectively due to the emphatic facial expression (raised inner eyebrow) but objectively due to muzzle coloring.

Only dogs can have both a white muzzle and a distinctly colored forehead.

Another side of ‘decorative’ Alphonse Mucha ~ here he depicts exhausted Slavic peasant woman as she sits, hopelessly alone, in frozen, famine-struck field, throwing back her head in resigned despair. As the wolves move in, does the star represent hope? (Winter Night, 1920s)

Hurrah it is Wednesday and the weasels are dancing. Today they are boogying to a bit Eurythmics and Sweet Dreams. Dance like a weasel you know you want to!

Hoorays!! for much maligned wise women and black cats of history
In Western arts over time cats could be included in paintings as symbolic of ideas of mystery or female sensuality. Black cats particularly were associated with witches (aka wise women who had skills in healing).

It’s getting louder.

Slowly but surely the big institutions are catching up. C19 damage is making it into the medical mainstream. People have published it for a long time, now it’s turning up in teaching materials, public announcements.

It’s getting louder.
