Those who hate Cummings will regard that as a car crash. Those who admire him will see his explanations as entirely reasonable. Each side will regard the other as "mad", possibly "contemptible". This is the reality of echo chambers in a digital world #cummingsPRESSconference

We support our local woodlands by using local wood. 66% of timber used in the UK is imported, but there are some great British sawmills processing high quality homegrown wood. @EastBrosTimber @cockingsawmills @HingleyTimber @northwoodoak #vasterntimber #gibweek #thread 4/7
