British tanks, trucks, and other armored vehicles that took part in the defeat of Germany at the end of World War II, lie piled on top of each other at a scrapyard in Hamburg, still waiting to be broken up and recycled, May 1958.

Have you ever seen #BBCQT defend a politician before? Firstly: 12/3/26 Manchester. Lucy Powell Manchester Central 2/10/25 Belfast. John Finucane Belfast North 23/1/25 Manchester. Lucy Powell Manchester Central 19/9/24 Manchester. Lucy Powell Manchester Central 29/2/24 London. David Lammy Tottenham 1/11/2018 Clacton. Giles Watling Clacton Secondly, why have Reform been on 60% of 2026 shows considering they have 1.2% of MPs?
BBC Question Time@bbcquestiontime

There is a longstanding policy on Question Time not to invite MPs on in their local constituencies unless it’s for a single-issue special programme. This is why Mike Tapp MP appeared on the panel in his constituency for the immigration special in Dover.

I seem to remember being on Question Time, a few months ago, in Dover…my constituency. You were too scared to even put a Reform MP up for tonight it seems. Weak.
Nigel Farage MP@Nigel_Farage

I wasn’t able to take part in #BBCQT from Clacton tonight, as we were told MPs are not allowed to appear on the show in their own constituencies. I’m sure I’ll be back on before too long!

Imagine if in your weekly shop, you could pick up plug-in solar panels that help save on your energy bills? Well, in some parts of Europe you can do just that. We’re working with industry to bring plug-in solar to UK shops within months.

Good news: we've secured The Crucible's future with investment to keep this iconic venue thriving. It’s a huge boost for the city’s cultural and sporting heritage, and a win for everyone who loves the theatre and snooker.
