@PaigeSpiranac Absolutely Paige! At various stages of my golfing life (currently at a very disappointing 15.3) I have never been slow. Can't score, pick up, walk on. Different for a pro, of course, but even in a medal there's no dithering from me, messing around, bag in the wrong place...

@JohnCleese Whilst the origin of this phrase is disputed, many people could do with heeding it: "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and to remove all doubt.".

Just finished @Mike_Batt's audio book of #TheClosestThingToCrazy. Absolutely wonderful and, with the added nuance of Mike's recollections in his own voice, extra levels of emotion. If you're a fan of #music #wombles #Snarks or just a bloody good story, please read or listen!

HOLY SHIT and I don't say that very often... At the behest of the water industry the Department for Works and Pensions has deducted £22.4 MILLION from people's Universal Credit payments simply to pay arrears to water companies. The arrogance and greed of these companies knows no bounds exploiting the most vulnerable in society and who the hell in DWP authorised this nonsense? thecanary.co/uk/analysis/20…

Seeing someone like you achieve something extraordinary gives you permission to believe it’s possible for you. That’s exactly what happened when I met Rory Allen in the Spurs youth team. The same applies in leadership. Show your team what’s possible, and you’ll see the results.

When a wave of Scottish independence accounts suddenly fell silent as the internet went down in Iran, analysts discovered that many of them weren’t Scots at all. They were Iranian bots.

@Mike_Batt Just absolute bollocks from the critics. It was the first show I'd saved up to buy a ticket, went with a mate, and thoroughly enjoyed every part of it. Such a shame it hasn't been recorded - I sincerely hope it makes a reappearance!

@PensionsSimon Yes- “not a single memorable tune in it”(Maureen Paton, Daily Express) 😤 - which is at least disproven by “Big break!” 🥳

@jhansonradio I wish I could say it surprises me, James. The levels of intergenerational unfairness, pretty much across the board, are staggering.

It’s genuinely wild how anytime I gently suggest young people have a rough deal in the UK, I get accused of “bashing pensioners”.
LBC@LBC

'This debate is insanity.' @JHansonRadio is accused of going after pensioners for claiming young people have it harder today.
