44 years on, we remember. Today, we honour the service of all who took part in the Falklands War. We remember those who never returned, those who were wounded, and the veterans who continue to carry its legacy.

Today marks 44 years since the end of The Falklands War. Please stop for a moment during your day to remember those who fell during the 10-week conflict and to think of those who still carry the scars of battle today. The courage and sacrifices must never be forgotten. #falklands

As the FIFA World Cup gets underway, we look back to 1966, when trainer Bill Watson was in the Blue Peter studio demonstrating the punishing agility exercises, he put professional footballers from English clubs through.

Rain or shine, the parade goes on. 🫡 The last weather cancellation of Trooping the Colour was back in 1948, and this year’s Colonel’s Review wasn’t about to break that streak. 💪

The big increase in the price of a pint since the last World Cup is sadly due to excessive taxation There's beer duty, VAT, hiked business rates, higher national insurance as well as new packaging taxes and the effect of the much higher minimum wage. "We are currently paying 54p a pint in beer duty," said Emma McClarkin of the BBPA. "If we contrast that with other countries in the tournament, we see Spain and Germany only paying 4p." "That's the kind of gulf that we've got," she said. "That's why we're asking the government to cut the taxation on our pubs, so we can keep a pint affordable for all." On top of duty, pubs in England must charge 20% VAT. But look at other countries' VAT rates and it's clear that many rival fans will be paying much less, (e.g. Italy & Spain 10%). Watching the World Cup in a British pub will be an expensive experience.
