Newsbiscuit Writer of the Month June 2024



Another storming month for Deskpilot. I'm expecting a major score at the end of the year as Deskpilot seems to be going on from strength to strength. Unfortunately, this means we need to invoke the Wren rule again as Deskpilot won last month so eppursimuove takes the crown this month.


As usual the full set of links follows the leaderboard, as does the cartoon of the month and the full list of headlines.
