"With the Chief Medical Officer for England Chris Whitty and the Chief Scientific Officer Sir Patrick Vallance".

or, as one paper called them recently, The Chuckle Brothers!!

What is this use of 'misspoke' all about? Have we always talked like this or surely its an Americanism for 'got it wrong' or even 'lied'. I thought Boris's grasp of the English language was one thing to be admired - another illusion crushed.  :'(
HELP!!!

I heard a great remark on "today" this morning re the rebirth of Spitting Image (sadly not on free tv). The man doing some of the voices, including Trump, Starmer and Johnson said of the latter, "His mouth runs faster than his brain!". ;D
