No, the Florida jet crash wasn’t faked to cover up a missile strike. Verified dashcam footage, flight data and pilot audio clearly show a Learjet 60 aircraft crashed in Palm Beach on 1 November, killing nine people. fullfact.org/us/florida-priv…

Have you seen a screenshot of a Truth Social post supposedly shared by Donald Trump claiming that the Republicans have already won the 2026 midterms? It’s fake and was originally posted by a satire account. fullfact.org/us/donald-trump…

2/ Plus: we asked our fact checkers which words and phrases they expect to hear from politicians of all parties around the Budget and turned them into this bingo card. Screenshot, play along and let us know if there any we missed!
Full Fact’s “Budget26 Bingo” graphic on a bright turquoise background. A pound coin forms the final “o” of “Bingo”, and the subtitle reads: “Screenshot to play! Tick off all the phrases you hear.” A 5x5 bingo grid has the Chancellor’s red Budget box as the centre square. The other squares read: “Black hole”, “Fiscal rules”, “Tough choices”, “Highest ever”, “Working people”, “Backlog”, “Out of touch”, “We inherited”, “Cost of living”, “Broken promises”, “Let me be clear”, “Fiscal drag”, “Tax burden”, “Difficult decisions”, “Families are worse off”, “Record investment”, “Over the course of this parliament”, “Uphold the manifesto”, “We have heard it all before”, “Headroom”, “Taxpayers’ money”, “Real terms”, “Triple lock” and “Full stop.” Cut-out photos of five politicians peek in around the edges of the grid.
