Changes proposed by the counties and agreed @ECB_cricket: @VitalityBlast North and South no more, are now: “Truly Northern”, “Midlands-ish” and “London & the SE” groups. Group stage reduced to 12 matches. Glad “El Coastico” remains intact #CountyCricket ecb.co.uk/news/4339206/c…

One would hope the #OnlineSafetyAct petition doesn’t get torpedoed by bots like just about every other UK Gov petition. If bots get their mitts on it, it’s easier for @UKParliament to disregard it. Don’t do it internet! Let the petition opposition be authentic and genuine!

@Mr_Deal_1 There is no PMQs today - Parliament is in summer recess / holiday, from yesterday til 1 September

Other ways of getting to London given #CodeBlack / #DoNotTravel directive by @SW_Help : - Basingstoke -> Reading -> Paddington (@GWRHelp services) - Southampton Central -> Victoria (@SouthernRailUK service) - Farnborough North -> Redhill -> Victoria / Bridge (GWR/Southern)

@eanne34 @SW_Help Given the “Do not travel” / “Code Black” directive, there will be no claim backs possible. It’s why the directive was issued in the first place sadly

@SW_Help Taxi claim backs? People can’t just not travel they HAVE to get to work!

I do wonder if having @MattFitz94 and @McIlroyRory in a pairing to chase down #Scheffler will actually be better than being paired with Scottie. 3 way playoff hole for the #ClaretJug would be epic. But Li is no slouch either. Looks like a cracking #TheOpen2025 final day tomorrow

After “Advance Australia Fair” was absolutely butchered by a bad audio sync, the @lionsofficial are now carving up Australia with ease #lionsrugby #lionsvswallabies #LionsTour #Lions25

@ESPNcricinfo just for awareness your #VitalityBlast Men’s QF fixtures are listed incorrectly . It’s not @surreycricket vs Notts, but rather Surrey vs @NorthantsCCC (Steelbacks). Rest are all ok.

@CJordan just knocked out @SussexCCC from the Blast… I guess former loyalties don’t apply here… so QFs are now Lancs vs @KentCricket , Durham vs @hantscricket , @surreycricket vs Northants & @SomersetCCC vs Warks Bears. Need tickets and a room in Durham #vitalityblast

@BobbyMa00187643 @KentCricket @hantscricket By my calculations, Kent needed to win in approximately 17.2 overs. I think Hawks might just be in trouble here.

@DazzaRPD @KentCricket @hantscricket I don’t think so, the NRR is far superior in Hampshires favour

The Bridge is 𝗢𝗨𝗥𝗦 (again) 🌉 📝 Video Scorecard: bit.ly/4lUTZC2

@BobbyMa00187643 @KentCricket It may be just enough to overcome @hantscricket…

@KentCricket Great win. Unfortunately not enough to qualify. Sussex are flying down in Hove.

#vitalityblast news for @hantscricket Men’s QF qualification: - Sussex must chase down 205 in 18.3 overs or fewer - Kent need to chase 172 in about 17.2 overs or fewer Anything above that, Hawks will end South group P3, and travel to whoever finishes P2 up North.

@Joey7Barton Did you forget Euro 2020, Joseph?

Worse pens ever! Don’t ask for equal pay. Youse are crap at footy. 🐕💨

That was a horrible penalty shootout. Falk so good at saving, not so much at shooting. Hampton legendary (can all the Earps-or-bust naysayers please send their apologies to @Lionesses now?). Yes Engerland!!! #Euro2025 #SweEng #EngSwe

An incredible comeback by @Lionesses . #Agyemang is one to watch for the future . Sweden rattled, expecting England to finish them off in Extra Time. Please don’t let it go to pens ladies #Euro2025

Surely Kimi should be P9, Carlos P10 and Bearman P17 if penalties are applied in the order they’re given? @SkySportsF1 #BritishGP #BritishF1 #Formula1 @fia

@krab_dzulfikar @Carlossainz55 @williamsf1 Antonelli has a penalty too… just not sure if that means he goes to P9 and Sainz P10 or if it’s Sainz P9 and Antonelli P10 #BritishGP #F1

Carlos Sainz starts from P10 after Bearman receives a 10-place grid penalty @Carlossainz55 @williamsf1 😭😭😭😭 #F1 #BritishGP x.com/F1/status/1941…

@FabriiSantini Bearman might be 17th… as Antonelli got his penalty first, Bearman should be P7 before his penalty so is then 17th

⏱️| Así finalizó la prueba de Clasificación en el #BritishGP. 🇮🇹Andrea Kimi Antonelli tiene una sanción de 3 posiciones por el choque con Verstappen en Austria, saldría en P10. 🇬🇧Ollie Bearman tiene una penalización de 10 posiciones por el error en FP3, saldría en P18.

In #F2 - @redbullracing (well, Campos Motorsports) stuck a wheel up the inside of #Copse at the #BritishGP F2 sprint. Unfortunately nobody could find #Horner for his live reaction @SkySportsF1 #SilverstoneGP #Silverstone

@supertanskiii Unfortunately given how the #WelfareReform vote went, anything other than Reeves showing up would’ve just ignited the Westminster rumour mill. It’s tough, but she had to do it, to show solidarity with Starmer and a united @UKLabour

I don’t know what’s going on with Rachel Reeves, but seeing a chancellor cry in the House of Commons is unheard of. She may have been told to go, it might be personal. Either way, the right thing to do is not have her on the benches if she is dealing with something. #PMQs
