Hi Wick!

I don't think so.

Misinformation is the bane of oir times and will only get worsefrom here on. I salute both of you for providing examples. As the saying goes: Pay attention at school as otherwise, your own ignorance will be used against you.

I have a 7 year old daughter and preparing her to navigate a world full of bullshit will be my big challenge in the decade ahead.

Wish me luck, everyone.

Here's another debunked myth - strangely not in Latin - from Jacob Rees-Mogg, who said our food would be cheaper when we leave the EU.

He's a bit of a cult.
