BBC have very good presenters and pundits but are inevitably getting heat for their World Cup Salford studio setting. One way to make their shows feel more connected with the tournament is simple: they have good reporters and production teams out here on the ground in Kansas City covering England. Give them more air-time, making the show feel less distant from the action, and bringing more detail and up-to-date info and insight into the Salford debate. Also, BBC are very successful in their “clips” strategy but it is still strange that there isn’t a morning highlights show of the late-night/overnight World Cup action. BBC have very good staff who could easily do it. It's possible to enjoy clips *and* want a more reflective highlights programme. #FIFAWorldCup

Your Reform Makerfield candidate publicly bragged about how he would love to both smell and lick Carol Vorderman’s arsehole. A healthy mind, that is not.

You lied, I didn't. You have broken standards and shown you lack the qualities to be Deputy Leader.
Next time you have an issue, call me. You don’t need to go telling tales and consuming officer time with tittle-tattle

On behalf of their client, Zara Sultana, Bindmans Media and Information Law Practise Group requires that I publish the following statement on X, and that such statement must be clearly visible and pinned to my profile for a continuous period of no less than 24 hours: “On 30 March 2026, I published a post on my X account addressed to Zarah Sultana in which I stated that she encourages and incites violence and is friends with terrorists. Those statements are false. I was wrong and offer my sincere apologies to Ms Sultana for the harm and distress caused to her.” It is my very great pleasure to do this, and I reiterate my sincere and repeated offer to meet with Miss Zara Sultana in person to resolve our differences.

In Britain, the so-called paper of record has published an antisemitic caricature of a Jewish politician. Because he opposes British foreign policy and crimes against Palestinians, the political-media class won’t care.

I love this advert. Sir Bobby Robson and Graham Taylor wish good luck to the new England manager, Terry Venables in this 1994 Yellow Pages advert. Sadly all 3 men are no longer with us.

Just been down the bookies like a real fucking bloke. Got the little pen and stood studying the form on the newspapers on the walls. Drew circles round some names. They were hesitant to take my bets because I looked like such a professional punter.
