The Gaurdians sources are members of SAGE and therefore very credible. Up until now any criticism of the govts decision making has been defended on the principle the are just following expert and trustworthy scientific advice from these brilliant people at SageGodIsADeeJay81 wrote: ↑Sat Apr 25, 2020 12:04 amhttps://www.standard.co.uk/news/politic ... 23776.html
At present I'd say that the guardian is far from credible, just like most of the news outlets during this pandemic.
None of them inspire much confidence at doing their job.
The daily briefings are cringeworthy when it comes to questions from the journalists and several have made themselves look really stupid.
This impeccable group of experts then speak out at their concern for two govt political advisers attending and influencing the Sage meetings and suddenly these experts become untrustworthy.
You would much rather just trust an unnamed downing street source who could easily just be Cummings himself rubbishing the story
I am happy to wait to see if the govt are prepared to provide full disclosure on the meeting attendees, their roles and the meeting minutes. If that shows the Gaurdians story to be hot air then thats great news
Until then I'll trust the sage members who have spoken out and voiced their concern over an unfounded statement from an unknown downing st source
