Premium: Maggs on Media; SA back on the UK’s Red List

We're delighted at the response to our new partnership with Jeremy Maggs. His reborn Maggs on Media show has already regained must-listen status among a loyal target audience – and a growing group outside of it.

When be-masked Jeremy came into the office for his recording yesterday, his first question was whether we're worried about the just discovered Botswana variant of Covid-19. Having been otherwise occupied, I hadn't been paying attention. No longer.

Things move at warp speed in this networked world of ours. Although there's only a couple dozen locally confirmed cases, alarm bells are ringing. Last night the UK government put SA and five neighbours back onto its Red List (see below). From noon today there's no more flights to or from the UK.
