    Sorry guys, there were some issues at the weekend that should be resolved now. However as Harry Palmr mentioned above, every time there is a new development or announcement in the Coronavirus crisis, a huge amount of traffic comes to the site all at the same time. The site can't always deal with the huge influx and becomes unstable for a while.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
