Leaked SAGE report thread: Twitter seems to think the leak was by the government to stir up fear - a misguided allegation to say the least. Clearly people have not read the content of the story and do not understand the importance of transparency of science. https://twitter.com/N650N650/status/1299705944063049728

I was sent this model as the person who leaked to me believes scientific models should be in the public domain so it can be critically appraised and discussed in the way science should be. The person who leaked it told me (quoted with their explicit permission):

“Decisions are being made on opaque documents. We should be opening such models to the scientific community so we can improve them collaboratively and make them more useful. This cannot be done in secret. It erodes the credibility of modellers and public trust to do otherwise.”
