  • “The shocking new ‘Bedwetter’ variant” – “The variant is known to cause rampant bedwetting amongst the conformists, the cowards and those pathetic people who have no lives of their own but who love to control those of others,” says Andrew Cadman, who pens a funny and satirical piece in TCW.

➡️ Where do @SkyNews find them?

▪️286 Covid patients NOT 10,000

▪️39 in critical care NOT 200
