The local vicar is on holiday and the service today (not at my usual church in the benefice) was taken by a retired but very experienced 85 year old priest. One reading was from Acts 16:16-34 about Paul and Silas being chucked into prison for casting out a fortune-telling spirit from a girl who was being exploited by her owners.
His thrust was that Satan sometimes speaks the truth, but not all of it. In order to make his lies sound more plausible he sprinkles them with truth so people get taken in.
He did not go so far as to mention the Sue Gray 'partygate' report or Boris but I knew this was what he was referencing.
Well done that man!
