Official mascot of COP26 ‘Bonnie the Seal’ decried as ‘giant rat’
It was supposed to be a symbol of the international effort to tackle climate change and leave the world in a better state for the next generation.
But on Monday the Government was scrambling to distance itself from the new face of Cop26: a £1,600 taxpayer-funded seal dressed in a blue cheerleading uniform and Glasgow-themed bobble hat.
The mascot, which was signed off by Boris Johnson’s administration, will be patrolling the streets of Glasgow from next week as world leaders descend on the city for the 26th United Nations Climate Change Conference.
Newly released records show defence intelligence officials downplayed the risk of COVID-19
… The minister of national defence, Harjit Sajjan, told the House of Commons on July 22, 2020, under questioning from the Conservatives, that the government had made decisions in response to COVID-19 “based on sound intelligence to make sure Canadians are safe.” In a brief exchange on that day, he repeated the assertion no less than four times, while declining to divulge any specifics about the intelligence reports.
It is now clear, thanks to a long-delayed release of records under the Access to Information Act, that the minister’s confident assertion about the quality of intelligence was incorrect.

Cambridge University to slap ‘trigger warnings’ about ‘offensive’ slavery & racism content on classic children’s books – reports
The University of Cambridge is reportedly adding “trigger warnings” to children’s classics in its archive, flagging “harmful content relating to slavery, colonialism and racism”. More than 10,000 books are apparently under review.

But the banner, which should have been trailing behind the plane, was actually attached to its front.
