Ofcom accused of stifling ‘criticism’ of Government’s Covid response
Regulator said ‘a lower number of cases in reality than is being reported’ was a ‘common piece of misinformation’

The broadcasting regulator has been accused of stifling “rational criticism” of the response to Covid by labelling scepticism about Britain s approach to the pandemic as “misinformation”. 
Amid major controversy over whether official statistics were overstating the prevalence of coronavirus, Ofcom described the idea that there were “a lower number of cases in reality than is being reported” as a “common piece of misinformation”.
