Anyone happen to know what bad news the UK government tried to bury today?
@squeakycheetah every news source in the country will be reporting on the royal wedding and not much else today
Perfect day to put out bad news because nobody will be paying attention

@troubleMoney Well, May is taking a battering in the Lords, so she's trying to get it in favour of her.
UKpol
@troubleMoney Although, to be really honest, you're really cynnical.
UKpol
@squeakycheetah for the most part probably
But this is just spin 101, if you have to announce bad stuff, do it on a day when everyone's reporting on something else that's bigger
@troubleMoney Thanks. I always forget bad news comes on fridays for the forgetting over the weekend.
Can't see much. Brexit is looking increasingly unliked as they are planning an 'intervention' with May to get her to stand up better to the hardliners and former 'leave' types have come over as well. http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-44175169
@troubleMoney What?
