Een piloot werd ontslagen omdat hij weigerde chemtrails te sproeien.

Publisher’s rating: De video is een grap van een Duitse satirische website. Chemtrails bestaan niet: het gaat om een complottheorie die nergens op gestoeld is.

The review identifies the video as a satirical story from the German website Der Postillon, published in September 2024. Its story about a pilot being fired for refusing to activate a supposed chemtrail system is presented as a joke, not a real event.

Lula seria réu em "Supremo Tribunal Internacional" por conta de fake news

Publisher’s rating: Falso

The review says the alleged “Superior Tribunal Internacional” does not exist and reports no record that Lula is a defendant in a case at the International Criminal Court. It explains that the video repurposed commentary about Lula’s remarks on the Lava Jato proceedings and the possibility of his being included in Brazil’s Fake News Inquiry; the commentator did not say he would be tried by an international tribunal.【S1】

Business Secretary Jonathan Reynolds said that “unbelievably the UK has lost more days due to strike action than France”. This is a claim the Labour Party has repeated on social media while promoting the party’s Employment Rights Bill, specifying that it relates to Rishi Sunak’s premiership.

Publisher’s rating: Labour has compared the number of days lost to strikes in the UK between October 2022 and July 2024 with the average number of days lost in France between 2012 and 2022. No official French statistics have yet been released covering the period of Rishi Sunak’s tenure as Prime Minister, making a direct comparison impossible. For previous years where comparisons are available, French strike action outnumbers British action.
