British man held hostage for eight days in Italy is freed by police

  1. Well done to the Italians for freeing him. Wonder why the friend who the Guardian says escaped didn’t go to the authorities though.

  2. The Guardian finds any way it can to convey a negative vibe about the UK:

    “The man told police he had been in Italy since early June after travelling to the country *to escape the UK* after the coronavirus lockdown.”

    Yeah, he was on holiday.
