    Yup, which should be a reliable source, but a pedantic editor would say no blogs whatsoever, even if they're compiled by a news agency.

    They're in a state over this on Wiki. I can't see what people think they're achieving by even making an argument of this. He's dead, and the site needs to revise its guidelines on sourcing.

    I presume a live blog on a DDP site is good enough for that game if a pick died and that was needed. The Guardian will probably give him a proper write up soon.

     

    The Times and The Telegraph will surely give him a proper writeup in time

    After seemingly infecting some of his cabinet and his Chief Medical Officer, his delay and herd immunity and failure to adequately PPE folk up leading to deaths, watching the guy in the next bed to him die while he is fussed over....

     

    Any other leader in any other time would be gone. But gawd love the British, they do like their clowns....

    He is now more popular than any pm since Churchil

    Another piece of my childhood ripped away. Who would have thought he would go before Bill Oddie.  Does he get the title of most famous British person to die of corona or is it still Eddie Large? Corona is not goodie.It's very baddie :(

    Probally him due to having a level of international fame - the obit's mention how the Goodies was a big hits in Australia and New Zealand.

    You're quite right. Apologies. 

    Confusing. Their article from tonight says nothing of the sort and none of the other papers have picked up on it.

    I wonder if they got the scoop or if they're exaggerating?

    Well it is the star so could be either.

    That status says nothing of the sort?

    Is it fair to say you just misquoted the story and exaggerated it 10 fold?

    Look in the text of the article on the tweet - it calls him seriously ill in it.

    Boris Johnson says his life was saved by hospital staff..https://news.sky.com/story/boris-johnson-i-owe-doctors-and-nurses-my-life-after-coronavirus-treatment-11972103   Is it possible that this has been such a life changing event that he might decide to resign as PM and do something else with his life, spend more time with his new baby and fiance? Or am I being ridiculously naieve?

    Unlikely but who knows, it might have made him realise the job is not for him.

    If he isn’t showing signs I think he will be to be honest, wonder what he was in hospital for originally that might be more of an indicator to his overall health.

    Antibiotics for an infection - not sure how at the moment you would be admitted for that unless you in danger if you don't get it.
