# CAPTAINTOM

Captain Tom Moore has launched his own gin. The Second World War veteran is endorsing a £ 35.95 bottle of London Dry.

@Loiner77 said: “Somebody, or more accurately some people, are cashing in on his popularity. It's great that he raised loads of money, but there are some who have done so much more, but we'll never hear about those people.”

@Bartlettm96 wrote: “He was in the right place and the right time. Could have been any other person, but fair play to him anyway, not sure about all the big hoo- ha.”

@nadimessa tweeted: “Imagine if Meghan Markle did that.”

@mattyforth wrote: “This is getting a bit silly now.”

@Lesley5856 said: “Sadly there are many people out there who have done so much more and will continue to do so without seeking glory. A bandwagon and distraction that suited the government just like the clapping for the NHS did.”

@ stressfulvurgo added: “I’m sick of hearing about him now. Overexposed.”

@Globerunner31uk replied: “Shame, I've never read that about Kim K or other celebs we hear about ad nauseam, although there must be a few around. What's the problem? Values, that's what.”

# ARCADIA

Billionaire Sir Philip Green’s Arcadia Group, which owns Topshop, Burton, Dorothy Perkins and more, is reported to be on the brink of collapse. @ saltyduchess wrote: “Very worrying news for all the employees, but for him… no sympathy whatsoever.”

@ harveypuss said: “He’s worth multi- millions, he could furlough his staff for a few more months – might have to sell his yacht.”

@ elimodnar tweeted: “Agreed. Very concerning for employees and they have my sympathy.”

@ samswalez wrote: “Lockdown 2.0. Probably saved a single life, but destroyed another 15,000 families lives.”

@ superposh7 replied: “A huge proportion will find alternative work, nobody finds an alternative life. Letting this virus rip would destroy many more families overall.”

@ Deucesparky responded: “Mate, there are no jobs. Try Indeed and apply for 30 or 40 jobs and wait and see what it says. Averaging 1,000 people going for one job. I had Sir Philip Green that said there was 3,500 applicants. This is worse than the virus”
