Summary
A viral leaflet claims 380 “illegal boat migrants” live in Makerfield, tied to Reform UK—but the number is just a flawed math estimate based on asylum seeker data, ignoring real-world distribution and arrival methods. Meanwhile, a fake video of Iranian jets being shot down in Israeli airspace? Nope—it’s a War Thunder game clip, confirmed by the devs. Both cases show how misinformation spreads fast—always verify before you believe.
