Everyone is confused… can you solve it? 👀👇 Don’t scroll without answering!

@TonyIncenzo 1. Brentford 2 Palace 3 Brighton 4 Villa 5 Villa

QUICK SURVEY! 1. Which is the nearest football team to where you were born? 2. Which is the nearest team to where you grew up? 3. Which is the nearest team to where you live now? 4. Which team do you have historical family ties with? 5. Which team do you support?

@PaddyBriggs Harold Wilson.

One way or another (no General election involved) the Conservatives have got rid of the following sitting Party leaders in my lifetime: Churchill Eden Macmillan Heath Thatcher Duncan Smith Cameron May Johnson Truss Except (arguably) Blair Labour has never done this.

@PaddyBriggs Clem Attlee?

@NglMaya Marlon

My sister is pregnant and she's looking for a baby boy name that ends with "on" Help her out before her husband suggests megatron again 😭

@UtdMaI I think that United have scored more goals and that weighs in their favour.

Somebody explain to me as a kid… why is Manchester United still top of Liverpool on the Premier League table yet we all have the same number of points and goal differences, even alphabetically “L” comes before “M”

@Soaringeagle45 Hope your good lady doesn't nag you!

Nothing in the English language starts with the letter N and ends with the letter G…

@tomhfh This was the first General Election I worked as a Labour supporter. The Tories won quite easily and " surprise loss" certainly overstates the position. It is true that a year or so before the election Labour were expected to do better

Labour Leader Hugh Gaitskell hosted a private meeting in his Hampstead home after his party’s surprise loss of the 1959 General Election. The mood was despondent. Traditional working class Britain was shrinking. Modernity made trade union banners look antiquated. Millions of people were becoming middle class. Gaitskell’s close ally Patrick Gordon Walker summarised the discussion as “we were too closely tied to a working class that no longer exists”. One participant at the meeting suggested revising the party constitution to delete the Clause IV commitment to nationalisation. Another suggested modernising the party’s name to appeal to modern middle classes. The name that was floated? The Reform Party.

@KeruboSk To my paternal grandparents. Dad was born 1908 one of the younger children. We were evacuated to Dad's family so I did talk to them both.

Just out of curiosity… who out there has actually talked to someone born in the 1800s during their lifetime?

@exPremiers Sorry not to have replied earlier. Lord Attlee was very elderly then. He was introduced as " the man who gave independence to India ". As you probably know he'd served on the pre-war Simon's Commission. world government had long been one of his interests.

@StimpsonDavid 😊 Wonderful, David. If you had any memories of that event, I'd love to hear them.

🗓️ On this day in 1956, 25 January, Clement Attlee took his seat in the House of Lords as the first Earl Attlee. 🚨 One of his supporters was Earl Baldwin of Bewdley, Stanley Baldwin's son. 🗣️ The new Earl became one of the most parliamentary active ex-PMs.

@Lea_EFC Fergie is a true Scot who are known to be " bonnie haters" . I smiled when the commentator said he'd come to watch both teams lose! Actually, I sat next to him at a dinner in London the year before he got his"K" and he was such a pleasant and nice man.

84 Year old Sir Alex Ferguson shamelessly attending the Etihad Stadium today to hate watch Manchester City 😂😂😂 Absolute respect to Fergie for this level of hate watching 👏👏👏

@StPetersSW16 Great Church where I was privileged to be able to help when I lived locally. A place of Asssembly, Worship and Welcome. Do go to a Service at " the Church on the hill "

@UTDAlex8 Cometh the hour cometh the man send for Sam !

🚨José Mourinho on Tottenham Hotspur: “They sacked me two days before a final — that tells you everything about the club. They even sacked a manager after he had won them their first European trophy. There’s no real winning culture. Players like Son Heung-min and Harry Kane gave them relevance, not trophies. They should be left out of the Big Six in England. Igor Tudor should be lucky he didn’t do much before they sacked hi…..𝗦𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲

@RevdPye @KingsCanterbury @militaryhistori @GilesMacDonogh @oldtoonloon @pirateirwin @EdnaKB2 @MargyMayell @MalcolmCGodfrey @theskibeagle @alanhinkes @NigelBiggar Thought so. Many years ago I was Leader of Lambeth Council ( 73-78) so perhaps I ought to know! I am truly " ancient of days" now and must be forgiven.

@StimpsonDavid @KingsCanterbury @militaryhistori @GilesMacDonogh @oldtoonloon @pirateirwin @EdnaKB2 @MargyMayell @MalcolmCGodfrey @theskibeagle @alanhinkes @NigelBiggar He was.

24 Mar 1976, Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery, died aged 88. ‘Monty’ probably most well-known British general of #WW2, famous for victory El Alamein in Nov 1942. Dad was a Bishop (in Tasmania 1889-1901). His Mum constantly beat him. Spent a term at my alma mater @KingsCanterbury

@Thfc_RR And I choose Villa which the family has supported since the formation of the Club.

Everyone around me chose City, United, Liverpool, Barcelona or Madrid but I chose Spurs 💔😭

@Jonseyboy @paddypower You have to understand that the devil was their first season ticket holder!

@paddypower Can I ask what warrants the spurs hate? I mean it is hate. It’s beyond banter.

Is it an exaggeration to say every neutral fan in the country are rooting for Crystal Palace here?

@paddypower All decent people are cheering for Palace as they play in Satan's den !

@SarahCholwill Clem Attlee which would guarantee a quiet and restful flight.

Is Rishi the pilot? I’ll sit with him.
