Ministers can no longer deny access to freedom of information documents simply because the responsible minister has left office.
As @isreinecke asks, what secrets can now be unearthed?

Meanwhile in #australia
In 2010, a nineteen year old Australian man named Sam Ballard spent an evening drinking with his friends in the back garden, when a slug came to their attention.
Being young and dumb and a bit inebriated, one of them suggested, as a dare, that Sam swallow the slug, which he did.
Some time later Sam started to complain of aches and pains and informed his parents of his foolhardy act, which they dismissed as irrelevant.
The sad truth is that the slug was carrying Rat Lungworm disease, a parasite called Angiostronjilus. Deposited in the faeces of an infected rat the slug picked it up and finally passed to the unfortunate man.
The parasite worked its way through its host’s system, finding its way to the brain and causing an inflammation that induced a coma lasting over 400 days.
On waking, he was completely paralyzed and was reliant on round-the-clock care in order to function. He finally succumbed to his condition and passed away in 2018.
Shout to those that hate coriander on this international day of hating coriander. I’m sorry for your loss in the genetic lottery that balances deliciousness with soap.

Two 19-year-old students from the University of Washington, Thomas Pryor and Navid Azodi have developed a pair of gloves that convert sign language to speech or text.
So aliens fly across the galaxy in super advanced spacecraft navigating black holes, planets, suns and other space phenomena and then they…checks notes….crash on earth. Makes for a good case of regular stops when travelling 🤷♂️ #UFOHearing
