CAN WE CELEBRATE NOW????❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Today the voices of division will be loud. They don't speak for the country I know, one that belongs to all of us. That's our Britain. A Britain worth fighting for. lbc.co.uk/article/keir-s…

Yes, I want to be Prime Minister, but if I was I wouldn't answer any questions I didn't like or I'd strop off in a huff, because who I choose to take bribes from is my business.

Let the Wotld Cup football advertising begin. This must be some of the best filming of football ever seen - brilliant & great music.

When Sir Bobby Robson completed his final chemotherapy session in 2007, his oncologist Dr Ruth Plummer pulled him to one side. Her department was outdated, a new cancer unit had been planned, but there was no money to equip it. Did he know anyone who could help? He took it home to his wife Elsie. She backed it without hesitation, and the phone calls started. A committee formed, and the idea emerged — use his name, build a charity around it. Bobby wasn’t comfortable with it at first. But once his name was attached, there was no going back. The target was £500,000 by summer 2008. The launch at the Copthorne Hotel was an immediate success, with Des Lynam, Bob Wilson and Jim Rosenthal all showing up out of nothing but goodwill. Seven weeks later, they’d raised £560,000. Today, the Sir Bobby Robson Foundation has raised over £20 million for cancer research. Legend. ❤️

In hard times, bonds grow stronger. Ukraine, you are not alone. 🇬🇧🤝🇺🇦 #StandWithUkraine

@fstonehythedc It was disgusting this morning along the seafront, the amount of rubbish that was left piled high for the gulls to make a mess of. Surely collecting in the evening would be far better or maybe actually fine some of the visitors for littering?

🌤 Something tells us that we might be seeing some sunny beach days this week… 🚮 If so, we're making sure to do our bit by binning the litter we find and leaving our coast clear of rubbish. 💛 Help us #LoveYourBeach and keep it free of unnecessary waste this summer.

It’s almost (the last) time 😢
