Terribly sad news. Former England player and coach Graham Thorpe has died at the age of 55. Forever in the hearts of the cricket family. ❤️

110 years ago this morning, 3 hours into the #greatwar , this man, Henry Hadley, became the 1st Briton to die as a result of an enemy soldier’s gunshot. Buried in an unmarked grave in a cemetery in Gelsenkirchen. I discovered his story in a Foreign Office record at the NA #ww1

Just seen a post on here comparing the rioting scumbags of the past few nights to Old Contemptibles. This makes my blood boil. Muslims, Hindus & Sikhs earned the 1914 Star; sons of immigrants and even a few men of Afro-Caribbean heritage served with the BEF in 1914.

A flash of strategic genius, a worthwhile gamble or did ‘criminal idiots attempt the impossible’? A new day-by-day account of the Gallipoli Campaign gets you right inside the dramatic events. Subscribe for release date & news 📨 steadyhq.com/en/littlegully…

Behind the scenes in 10 Downing Street this afternoon. (First broadcast in 1984! How little things change……)

🚨🚨🚨Warning to Tories about a Boris Johnson come back. Privileges committee inquiry into partygate slated for beginning of November. Talk of it sitting four-hours-a-day Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday for three weeks. “There are so many witnesses who want to come forward.”

18 October 1922: BBC is born. 19 October 1922: Government collapses and the PM (David Lloyd George) resigns. 18 October 2022: BBC celebrates 100th birthday. 19 October 2022: Well, nearly there.

The fact Boris Johnson is on holiday in the Caribbean while parliament is sitting, at a time of national crisis, after spending most of the last two months of his premiership on holiday, confirms everything you need to know and already knew. He deserves nothing but disgrace.
