Just thinking about some of our favourite Traitors moments ahead of the final...
 
#TheTraitors #traitors #traitorsuk #thetraitorsuk
Man with eyes closed and slight smile, captioned with, "When your Hinge date knows that people on HIV treatment cannot pass it on during sex," and "you can seduce me." A woman with long dark hair looks incredulously, with the text "what...are you thinking?" when asked "are you clean" on a dating app. A surprised and ecstatic woman with arms raised, capturing the joy of ending all new HIV cases in the UK. Text above expresses this sentiment.

Thank you the Chancellor for listening to #InfectedBlood victims and exempting their compensation payments from inheritance tax.

This is a welcome step, giving recipients peace of mind that their long-overdue compensation will not be unfairly taxed.
