Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political question, so it has no leaning score. That is an answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political position.

🔮 The pilot - who later reported the sighting to military controllers - ducked the aircraft after the object passed close by, remarking to the RAF radar controller overseeing the refuelling exercise it could be a 'potential drone'. He said: 'Uh yeah, just had something go overhead of us – potential drone at one seven zero – have you got anything on your screen?' 'One seven zero' is code for an altitude of 17,000ft - the height the object was flying and more than 40 times the legal height limit for drones.
🔮 'No matter how this has affected me or impacted on my life I will not allow you to see me as weak.
🔮 Peggy-Sue was so large she struggled with walking, was susceptible to infection and overheating, and could not take a few steps without collapsing.

🔮 Dr Michael Young became embroiled in a row with the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea Council (RBKC) after building a screen on his roof which they ordered he remove in 2024. Dr Young, who works in financial services, maintained the screen was approved by the council in 2019, 2022 and 2023 – resulting in a two-and-a-half-year-long dispute involving the Planning Inspectorate and costing him almost £10,000 in planning consultants', legal and architects' fees. Yet despite the inspectorate ultimately ruling in his favour in May, Dr Young sought permission earlier this year to voluntarily tear down the screen he spent more than five years fighting to keep – and replace it with a three-storey extension costing £500,000.
🔮 But the marketing professor - who was told he might be wheelchair-bound or reliant on the use of a stick to walk because of the crash - has since defied expectations, returning to the US to complete the run and even running the length of Australia.
