Here's a picture of the Wolfe Galaxy, it's a disc Galaxy and it's massive! Even larger than the Milky Way (i.e. the Galaxy we inhabit) and is a whopping 12.3 Billion light years away from Earth; that's even further than Dominic Cummings would drive his plague-riddled family for a weekend break on his birthday! Of course, perspective can be a deceptive thing sometimes, the disc of this galaxy (named after astronomer Arthur Wolfe) looks static but is spinning at a rate of 270 kilometres per second! That's about the rate that this Tory cabinet seems to generate lies and excuses, but much like honestly tackling the serious issues of the day, progress, from where we all stand appears glacial.
