Short thread:

Prediction: we will see over 100,000 total #ukcoronavirus deaths within a month

I make this prediction in my role as one of the much derided 'twitter pandemic experts' ie someone who understands maths (Further Maths A level) especially exponential/logistic growth The daily growth of deaths is more than 4/3, ie each day on average the total UK deaths increases by more than a third.

Short Thread about the @AmberRuddHR memo. #Windrush
This is a quote from the memo, "This will move us along the path towards the 10% increased performance on enforced returns, which we promised the home secretary earlier this year."

So regardless of whether she... 1/x ...actually read the memo, she was aware the Immigration Enforcement Agency was attempting to increase enforced returns by 10%. How did she think that was going to happen? Put in some policies & hope for the best? Anyone who has worked in any sort of modern large... 2/x
