This is not just a victory for the people of Hungary, but for all those around the world who believe in international cooperation, democracy and the rule of law 🇭🇺

I hope this photo is a watershed moment. Forced to carry on to the end of the race with a broken back. Collapsed & died after the finish line. RIP Gold Dancer. If you’re making money off this kind of suffering - how do you look at yourself in the mirror?

Some performance from @NorthantsCCC today/yesterday in Kent. #Extras will feel they have let the side down.

𝐀 𝐦𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐧 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐨𝐚𝐝... | #FT Captain Tom Clarke fired us in front on the 68th minute, following a battling performance in difficult conditions... But, most importantly - that goal, and this win secures us more than just three points today... It sealed the Ardal North West League title for 2025/26.

@MunicipalDreams "we have gone backwards in our present rejection of council housing, the most cost-effective remedy to this problem." Couldn't agree more. Applies as much today as it did when the article was originally written.

Today my Sammy’s story was told in Parliament by @_Chris_Coghlan where I met the minister of state for school standards @Georgia_Gould and @AlPinkerton MP and shared the full details of his horrific death aged 13. #sammyalbanstanley #SEND💔

March 31st 1949, RCA Victor introduced the first 45 rpm record, The first one released was "Texarkana Baby" by country & western singer Eddy Arnold. The disc was made of green vinyl, part of an early plan to color-code singles according to the genre of #music they featured.

So sad to hear today that my old radio friend James Stannage has died. James was wonderful, one of the first to create the shock jock style. Back in 1979 Jasper Carrott did a live show on ITV & mentioned James. Thanks for the shows James, you were the best #RIPJamesStannage

The Grown Ups are back in the room… good work @EdwardJDavey and @LibDems for picking up on the things you differ on, recognise when you do agree and respectfully focus on issues that are real not just raised to be divisive. How I wish we saw more of this…

I see Question Time has reached its inevitable endgame. It was bound to happen.

From Reform UK yesterday alone: Sarah Pochin wanted to wear a tartan burqa. Nigel Farage called Welsh people 'foreign speakers'. He also called for every religious celebration to be banned in the UK. Lied about Ed Miliband. Claimed that Britain was built on Judeo-Christianity. Lost control of Kent County Council. Banned media from another council — Nottinghamshire. Put a man who believes that abortion should be illegal, even in cases of rape and incest, on BBC Question Time. In one day. Have they been called out by anyone in the broadcast media? No. Will they be? Also, no.

NEW: KCC have pulled this from Thursdays full council after advice suggested it might leave the council in breach of electoral rules. I'm just working out if Reform will bring this motion to the next full council after the Cliftonville by-election.

@ZiaYusufUK @ClaireCoutinho We need our own energy. That means wind & solar. People who say North Sea don’t know what they’re talking about. We can’t drill there. We’re not Norway. We can only allow companies to drill there. And they send to refineries then sell onto global markets. No use to us.

I'm a vicar in a small rural village. I could never say this to my flock because of the outcry, but Reform are blatantly opposed to genuine Christian values and it's clear that anyone considering voting for them has not been listening to a single word I say each week
