Recent fact checks
Prime Minister Rishi Sunak claimed that A&E waiting times in England are the best in two years.
The most recent NHS data shows that while there have been improvements to A&E waiting times in England in recent months, June 2023 was not the best month in the last 24.
A&E waiting timesAn article published by MailOnline claimed a study shows you can reduce your risk of diabetes by eating earlier meals.

Correlation not causationSocial media posts have claimed that members of some religions who want to drive to pray at a house of worship will be exempt from London’s Ultra-Low Emission Zone charges.
These claims are inaccurate. There is no specific exemption for those driving to places of worship.
