@Dannythefink @TheIndGroup Whilst it would clearly be easier in some ways for you to ignore them, I agree that confronting the bigotry is important and you are doing good work in doing so. I hope it is not taking too great a toll on you. I said a prayer for you and the Jewish people in Mass yesterday.

@TheIndGroup I get it. But at the same time we can’t allow these people to dominate the space unchallenged.

@willgkelleher @swildecricket @TimesSport Unfortunately totally fair - we are so less than the quality of our players should merit…

I’d written an intro for this using the Succession quote — “I love you, but you are not serious people” — but had to alter as @swildecricket had used it about the Bazballers… …sums it up really. Harlequins humiliated. Bristol sublime, mind! @TimesSport thetimes.com/sport/rugby-un…

@willgkelleher @AlfredReynolds5 @PremSportsTV @TimesSport Interesting stat re home victories in the Champ Cup last 16 and QF, but can’t help thinking this is due to the seedlings which give strongest sides guaranteed home ties and weaker opposition. Particularly given the financial boost of having home ties, maybe this needs equalising?

🤔 What do rugby fans want from their sport? The latest Ruck with @AlfredReynolds5 tackling the Champions Cup last 16, TikToking, broadcasting and English failings. @PremSportsTV CEO Richard Sweeney has some funky ideas to revamp ECC! @TimesSport podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the…

@harlequinspod Utterly rubbish (sorry can’t think of a printable third word)

That was abysmal. Complete and utter garbage from minute 1 to minute 80. What a miserable trip. But don’t let us influence you… THREE WORD REVIEWS 👇🏼

@Harlequins @IsgroRodrigo Shame they missed the forward pass from Exeter’s try…

48' Green goes over after an amazing combination with @IsgroRodrigo. The try though is disallowed for a previous forward pass. 🟡 14 - 19 🃏 #COYQ #EXEvHAR

@willgkelleher @AlexMLowe @AlfredReynolds5 @SBarnesRugby @TimesSport Not Quins v Sarries (I say this as a Quins fan) as we don’t win often enough!

Ruck listeners! Our debate for the pod tomorrow… what is the greatest #PremRugby rivalry? Are you Saints v Tigers? Sarries v Quins? Bath v Gloucester? Bristol v Bath? Even old school Wasps v Tigers? @AlexMLowe @AlfredReynolds5 & @SBarnesRugby on to thrash it out! @TimesSport

@harlequinspod Same old story, good attack, soft defence

Half Time: Saints 14-22 Quins Scoreline flatters them, we’ve been better in every area. They’re so dangerous that this is a scary scoreline though. Couple of screws to tighten up. 1 more score to secure a BP. COME ON BOYS 🃏

@RosieisaHolt Satire is now dead…

I have nothing but admiration for this amount of delusion

@BBCPolitics Maybe just not go then…

"For security reasons I can't go in the stands... it's as simple as that" PM Keir Starmer defends his decision to accept corporate hospitality at Arsenal's Emirates Stadium bbc.in/3TxVo5G

@SouthernRailUK I get that this is outside your control and is a live, fluid situation, but can you please not advertise trains leaving that you don’t actually know will. I got on a train advertised as leaving to be later told it would not be leaving now and meantime had misse another…

⚠️ It is with great sadness that we report a person has been hit by a train between Balham and Selhurst stations. All lines are blocked between these stations whilst the emergency services work to deal with this incident. Service information will follow

This video is currently being shared with false claims that it shows a group of Muslim men on motorbikes blocking a road in Walthamstow to confront far-right protesters. The video is from last year, when a group of bikers blocked a road in London to mark the death of a friend.

@holland_tom Heading to Craster next week, will be using this!

To Lindisfarne!

@afneil Time for the 6th Republic?

Article 12 of the constitution says there cannot be another election for a year.

@AllisonPearson Sorry not true for many of us who might not be in the Telegraph but do think that the country is generally best run from the centre right

I cannot believe the obtuseness of this analysis by David Gauke. There are literally no (former) Conservative voters complaining their party swung too far to the right. Feeble LibDemmery is the main complaint of the departed.

@Barristerblog @DavidGauke Spot on.

Fine analysis by the always shrewd @DavidGauke of why the Conservative Party is in disarray. conservativehome.com/2024/06/17/dav…

No information that I can find on @marksandspencer website on where any of their clothes are made. Not helpful if you care about the sourcing of goods

@paddygrant Having read this, I am now on a mission to pay far more attention to where things I buy come from. It can be difficult to find out where many online vendors have actually made things (even those trumpeting their “Britishness”) - we all need to ask

My book, LESS, is about work, jobs equality, consumption, quality and how they all play out in the creation of a fair society. It's out now.
