Cillit Bang enjoyed a burst of unexpected publicity this morning following Donald Trump’s suggestion that disinfectants could offer a potential cure for Covid-19.

The popular cleaning product went viral on Twitter with a number of old-school ads making a comeback to promote the new formula ‘Cillit bang COVID’.

I can see the advert now.

“Hi I’m Barry Scott, back to tell you about our brand new formula…

Cillit bang COVID.

Gargling with Cillit Bang twice a day is guaranteed to kill COVID-19…

by killing you!

BANG and the COVID is gone!”

WTF?!

Among the other bizarre suggestions, Mr Trump also inferred that using UV light on the human body could tackle the disease.

There were also genuine concerns that people might take the President seriously after previous suggestions that chloroquine might offer a cure.

Seriously though, after trump suggested taking chloroquine some dude ate fish medicine thinking it was the same thing and died. Wonder how many people will die because Trump suggested shooting up Cillit Bang.

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
