Yesterday Tom Holland @holland_tom became the first Bede Librarian at Durham Cathedral🙌
At Evensong yesterday Tom knelt by Bede's tomb in the Galilee Chapel and was inaugurated as Bede Librarian.

@saintsfcreport you cheated, you’ve not “lost” £200m, you weren’t entitled to it. you cheated since november and have been punished accordingly.
English
Whatever you think about the spying, this is spot on. Punishment is absurd overkill and you cannot argue with the reasons stated. #saintsfc

the whole thing is a mess, however:
Hull don’t just deserve to go up for not cheating, albeit being innocent in all of this.
Saints are rightly expelled
Boro’s playoff preparation has been imposed on and have only trained twice since in a week
Ben Jacobs@JacobsBen
🚨 Exclusive: Hull City are consulting lawyers to see if they have a case to be promoted straight to the Premier League after Southampton (subject to an appeal) were expelled from the Championship playoffs. Hull are unhappy at the prospect of facing Middlesbrough at Wembley having spent over a week preparing to play Southampton. Saints appeal is this evening and they will argue the punishment is too harsh. Hull's players had a pre-planned day off today and will return tomorrow with either two days to prepare for Boro, or potentially learn the final is against Southampton again. Hull are leaving legal avenues open, including the prospect of a challenge after the final.🐯 🤝 @alex_crook

@AdamAzor leeds did so while there were no rules on one occasion, southampton have done it across the league season and play offs.
English
they didn’t think anyone would be so stupid to do it again….cheat to get into and during the playoffs, being thrown out for putting the game in disrepute is very just.
Matt Le Tissier ✝️@mattletiss7
When the efl made the rule change after bielsa was caught spying, wouldnt it have been sensible to put alongside that what the punishment would be if the crime was committed. That would’ve saved them a lot of trouble. I think it’s important that the punishment fits the crime btw
English
feel for saints fans, it is however the fault of the clubs ownership /management. without a harsh punishment there’s no incentive to not cheat. Saints staff & players knew about this & didn’t stop. only admitted to games you didn’t win. how many more games have they spied on?
BKP@BenKirkSFC
The EFL haven’t just punished us; they’ve ruined us. In addition to losing half our team, we’ll be sued for many, many millions by players, sponsors & rival teams. We’re essentially facing years of decline and pain on and off the pitch. Thats why this is disproportionate.

Labour are pathetic, they’re doing this to save the party not the country. the role of PM is swiftly becoming a poisoned chalice. have they learnt nothing from 14 years of the tories? pushes more disenfranchised Britons towards ill suited individuals.

@mckee_corey @tolkienzone the films are also not cannon and rings of power has nothing to do with the Peter Jackson films

watched a extended edition marathon yesterday in the cinema, Bernard’s Hill speech as Théoden before the Rohirrim charge at The Battle of the Pelennor Fields, received a swathe of applause. May he rest in peace.
Tolkien World@TolkienWorldG
Two years ago, we lost Bernard Hill, a man who gave us one of the greatest kings ever put to screen. From the tragedy of Titanic to the courage of King Théoden in The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, his legacy is etched into cinema history. “Ride now… ride for ruin, and the world’s ending!” Gone, but never forgotten.

And when it comes to fixing the church roof, the Government should start by reinstating VAT relief on repairs to listed places of worship – as called for by the @NatChurchTrust – and restore funding back to previous, higher levels.
Time to scrap the church tax!

Kemi Badenoch sneered at our party for caring about communities and working hard to get things done. Well that's who we are. Vote Liberal Democrat on 7th May.

Very good news that both Reform UK and the Tories have pledged to reverse the Government’s characteristically spiteful cultural vandalism, by restoring the VAT exemption for repairs on church buildings. People who are safeguarding the nation’s heritage shouldn’t be punished

similar to parts of Medieval England, Ireland, and France that believed that barnacle geese grew from a barnacle, and thus were a fish.
Robbert Leusink@robbertleusink
The Vatican once declared a 150lb rodent to be a fish Venezuelan clergy wrote to Rome in 1784 They were surrounded by capybaras and facing 40 days of Lent Their description: semi-aquatic, webbed feet, tastes like fish Rome had never seen one, but approved it Capybara is still a traditional Good Friday delicacy in Venezuela today The dispensation was never rescinded

metropolitan boroughs and conurbations have killed peoples link to our ancient and historic counties, this would go some way in repatriating peoples feeling of such places
ithaca rising 🇫🇷 🇬🇧@ithacarising
The English have always had this quiet oikophilia - that deep love of home - which is rooted in its counties. Living in France you see the French flag (often paired with the EU flag) on every mairie (mayoral town hall) and it reinforces a collective identity of Frenchness. Bringing back the old county flags on public buildings would be a simple, graceful way of doing something similar. It's also a gentle reminder that England is made of real, named landscapes and settled ways of life that have shaped it for centuries. A few flags on the town hall might do more for our sense of belonging than a dozen policy papers ever could.
