Want to know why policing is in crisis? One of the reasons is because they spout this kind of unintelligible bollocks - 'policing will need to integrate strategic foresight and interoperability if it is to maintain legitimacy.'

@PeterBleksley How right you are Peter. They should listen to you , but they are deaf to bullshit.
English
Dear Police Officers, Policing is NOT a business. You don’t manufacture or sell anything. Your job is keeping the peace, preventing crime, and detecting crime when it occurs. That is unique. Don’t believe the bullshit that an ambitious superintendent with an MBA tells you.

Islamic teachings such as this are entirely at odds with British values, culture and laws. They must be resisted at all costs.
Dr. Maalouf @realMaalouf
Islamic scholar has a message for all women: “If your husband abuses you, you should be a good wife and tolerate the abuse. If you leave him, your only options are to become a prostitute or go back to your father’s house and bring shame!” How can women follow such a religion?

'In The Big Room' is out now.
'I’d not really taken advantage of the big room as a performance space myself and when, in 2003, the opportunity came up, we grabbed it... we weren’t as polished and rehearsed as we might have been while on tour, but it made for a more awake and edgy performance, as we were fully concentrating on what we were doing.'

🚨🗣 Manchester United legend Bryan Robson has called on Michael Carrick to ensure the club does not allow Casemiro to leave:
"I would encourage Casemiro to STAY. He’s had a really good season this year."
"He’s a TOP player. He’s got a great football brain. He’s a really good passer of the ball. He heads the ball well and when he goes in to tackle, he means it."
"You don’t stay at Real Madrid for the amount of years he did and win Champions League titles if you’re not an absolute top player and people see what you’re really good at."
"So I think next season he could definitely give us a little bit more with his EXPERIENCE. He was great in Europe last year too."

Emma Raducanu stated she's not interested in those coaches that dictate how she should play. So she went back to Mark Petchey, she's just lost 1-6, 1-6 in less than an hour, making just 2 winners and hitting 22 unforced errors.
Uniqlo has just given her a multi million deal. 😬

Emma Raducanu says she's open to the idea of having another full-time coach - as long as they do not dictate the way she should play.

@TelegraphRugby @brianmoore666 So Borthwick drops the one player with true leadership qualities…George Ford 🤷♂️
English
🏉 England’s ill-discipline and egregious defensive mistakes exposed a team with a lack of on-pitch leadership and there is no clear solution to halting their downward spiral

@StoolTennis That’s the level Raducanu is really playing at . Ok until she plays the top players. But being her coach is surely like hiring a deckchair on the Titanic 🤷♂️

@TheRugbyPaper @BathRugby Excellent 12. Very underrated imo

🛁 Will Butt intends to leave @BathRugby on a high after deciding to end his 12-year playing association with the club and join Exeter Chiefs in the summer as his side prepares to take on Leicester Tigers at Welford Road today.

Tough gig today for the young guns from Bath against a much stronger Leicester side. The boys left it out on the pitch and should hold their heads high!
Prem Cup not to be this season but there is still bigger fish to fry
Bath Rugby@BathRugby
A third try at the death for Bath but Leicester Tigers take the win. 🤝 @theTRUESPEED

I thought that was great!! Some very close racing with a bit of ebb and flow on the passes. Well done @GeorgeRussell63 and @MercedesAMGF1 What a comeback. And @ScuderiaFerrari and Lewis Hamilton more racy 👏🏼👏🏼👍🏻✌🏻

You raise an interesting issue but it’s not quite right. 1) very few permanent residents have left. The panic was among tourists. 2) of the very few that did, they haven’t just abandon their homes/entire set up forever?! 🤣🙄 They’ve just taken a couple of weeks out. 💯 they will still be paying their nanny/driver 3) the pain IS being felt by low paid ‘freelance’ workers who are heavily reliant on tourists eg taxi drivers…

This is what I feared was going to happen and it's proving true.
Some questions I want international media to start asking the wealthy people who flee Dubai:
Where is your maid? What happened to your driver? Did you bring your nanny with you?
Under the kafala system in these countries, your visa is linked to your employer. Your housing very often is too. If you are a Filipina nanny for a wealthy British family in Dubai and they abruptly leave, you have no visa to enter the UK with them. You now are in the UAE with no job and likely no place to stay. You probably have your own children at home in the Philippines to support.
Zia Ur Rehman@zalmayzia
Migrant workers from poorer countries, including Pakistan, India, Nepal, Bangladesh and the Philippines, who form the backbone of the UAE’s workforce are increasingly bearing the human cost of the US-Israel-Iran conflict. At least 2 Pakistani labourers are confirmed dead so far.

@SuppressedSikh Despite the extraordinary win some years ago in the US Open , she has flattered to deceive ever since. Sadly I can’t see her winning big ever again . Mentally all over the place imo 🤷♂️

@tiff_tv You have to say it was a whole lot better than expected going on the comments from the drivers 👍🏻
English
Well you have to say that was a lot more entertaining than most of us expected!
Still not sure drivers are enjoying it that much though.
Ferrari held back the Mercedes steamroller for longer than expected and how about our 5 Brits all in top 8!
And what a debut for Lindblad 🇬🇧

@bbcbristolsport @BathBytes Shame. So much potential - and he’s a decent player already 🙈

@standupbath I negotiated SB’s first ever professional contract. Just me , SB and the then owner Andrew Brownsword in his Queen’s Square office. I could say a lot more …..but I shouldn’t really 🤔 should I ?

Dear God get Sweeney out.
BBC Sport@BBCSport
Steve Borthwick’s boss Bill Sweeney, chief executive of the Rugby Football Union, has given the England coach his backing despite a run of poor results. Borthwick’s side sit fifth in the Six Nations table on just six points after a defeat to Italy on Saturday.

Had to pleasure of getting to know Salts when I was doing a coaching course. He was incredibly kind, insightful, funny and generous with sharing his knowledge. Desperately sad for his family and friends. It’s later in the day than you think so don’t fret the small things. RIP 🫶🏻
BBC Sport Bristol@bbcbristolsport
Some very sad news. Former Bristol Rugby captain Matt Salter has died at the age of 49. Following his playing career Matt worked for many years as Head Coach at Clifton and Director of Rugby at Clifton College. Our thoughts are with his family and friends.
