It was an own goal. The most Lukaku, west brom goal you can get. That is still his goal just for being there

I don't really care how old I sound, we need more springwatch than 3x 4 day weeks. It's my favourite and that's all that matters, expand the programme

Sorry but Hunter Biden being this effective a communicator was not on my bingo card. This is powerful stuff

I see your profile picture. That’s Johnny Cash. My hero too. Arrested seven times. Smuggled 668 amphetamines across the Mexican border in 1965. Took every drug there was and drank like I did. Cheated on his first wife. Slept with more woman than I ever did. Hit bottom in a cave in Tennessee in 1968 trying to crawl off and die. And then he got up. He got clean. He spent the rest of his life singing for prisoners and addicts and the people the country threw away because he knew he was one of them.
That was the whole point of the Man in Black. He wore it for the poor and the beaten down. He wore it for the prisoner who has long paid for his crime. He wore it for the ones who never heard a word of Jesus. He wore it for the addicted and the dying. He wore it as a standing witness that no one is past saving.
You picked his picture. You did not pick his message. Try listening to the words.

And if you open this tweet you see a beardless Mr Beast on the right
"would you live in a jail cell for 37 days to win $835,000" is like your average Mr Beast challenge

Just saved a baby starling trapped in my chimney. Feel like she fell down on purpose to test my commitment to the birds

Was a privilege to work with @MichaelRosenYes today. His show "Nice" had it's second ever showing at my theatre today, and it was fantastic. Anyone who has any opportunity to see him live should take it with both hands- a wonderful man with a wonderful show.

This is the sensible response to the nonsense. Boaters shouldn't be exempt from mooring tax, but councils shouldn't be asked to chase them. This is a good solution in theory
May 12
It’s not about evading tax because they think it is unfair, it is the fact that multiple councils and public bodies have gone along with what has been happening in practice because it’s more convenient for everyone involved.
On your reading of the legislation, anyone who lives residentially on a boat needs to be paying council tax, even if they move that boat every few weeks. But you haven’t explained how that will possibly be administered or enforced.
Instead of different councils chasing constantly moving boats and having to provide them with services that will often cost the council more than they raise, why don’t we raise an equivalent fee on boaters which a central boat authority can administer based on the licence data that they hold. The fee could pay for boater-based services like rubbish collection and contribute to the public good by paying for the maintenance of the canal network & towpath which all of the public get to use for free but which councils don’t pay for.
Perhaps we could call this equivalent a ‘boat licence fee’ & have the Canal & River Trust administer it?

This discussion of who is the best person for Hislop to break down in public life is pretty disgraceful. Satire is one thing, this is just "who is the best worst thing for this country for me". Our media is disgusting.

🚨 Cathy Newman: “We’ve had five Prime Ministers since Brexit. Has Brexit made Britain ungovernable?”
Ian Hislop: “It looks like it.”

It's difficult to put into words just how unrecognisable this nonsense from Labour is when comparing to the hope they gave us under Corbyn, and even Miliband. It must be embarrassing for so many of the people that have stayed in the party that don't share these morals.
