For those of you who say we don’t do enough history about rugby, your prayers have finally been answered…

February, 1875: England v Ireland at the Oval 🏟️ This is where one of sport's fiercest rivalries began... @TheRestHistory

@Keir_Starmer Why should he apologise. He shared his view, you can either agree or disagree. And if your family hailed from the West End of Bradford, I suspect you would tend to agree with his sentiments.
English
Offensive and wrong.
Britain is a proud, tolerant and diverse country.
Jim Ratcliffe should apologise.

@FromSteveHowell @PSCMontgomerys1 I specifically look out for Israeli produce to put in my trolley. And every time a moron like you pops up, I buy another share in Israel Chemicals (ICL). The rule is serving me well.
English
The boycott message is getting through... if Welshpool Tesco is anything to go by.
When I spoke to a staffer to check the avocados I was buying weren't Israeli (unlike those pictured), he said: "A lot of people ask about that."
@PSCMontgomerys1 leaflets the store regularly.

@lostinfens1 @TommyTucker091 @RupertLowe10 @jeremycorbyn Neoliberalisim and a pro-Israel pro-US foreign policy suits me just fine.
English
@TommyTucker091 @RupertLowe10 @jeremycorbyn It's not the people on hunger strike, it's the govt's willingness to do whatever Israel or the US tells them. We may have a "lunge" to the right & that will be the end of the UK as we know it. When we fall deeper into neoliberalism, we'll be ruled from Tel Aviv & Washington.
English
My constituent, Amu, is on Day 40 of their hunger strike in prison.
Last month, I requested an urgent meeting with the Justice Secretary to discuss their wellbeing.
He has now officially declined my request.
What an absolute disgrace.
English
@lostinfens1 @RupertLowe10 @jeremycorbyn His lack of sympathy is quite representative of the attitude of the British public at large.

@RupertLowe10 @jeremycorbyn You utter twat, I hope when you seek re-election, this tweet haunts you.

@DollidarityArmy @RupertLowe10 @jeremycorbyn How is the holocaust comparable to some idiot refusing to eat.
English
@RupertLowe10 @jeremycorbyn Cool. Can we make fun of the holocaust now, or would you shriek about "poor taste"?

@Brahmslover1278 @DefenceHQ Because we assist our allies when they are invaded. Hope this explanation helps.
English
@Feargal_Sharkey Good. The industry needs someone to defend it from pig ignorant gobshites like yourself with a chip on your shoulder and absolutely no understanding of the commercial realities at play.

"Rachel Reeves’s new adviser has links to Thames Water lobbyists."
Yep you read that correctly, Jenny Scott, who will now work at the Treasury, will continue her role as a partner at Apella Advisors — a firm she co-founded — that lobbies on behalf of Thames Water. Yep and I did not make that up.

Thank you President Zelenskyy for your warm greetings. I deeply value the joint commitment to forging even closer ties between India and Ukraine. We earnestly wish our friends in Ukraine a future marked by peace, progress and prosperity.
@ZelenskyyUa
Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський@ZelenskyyUa
Congratulations to the people of India, President @rashtrapatibhvn, and Prime Minister @narendramodi on the Independence Day! This week we had a good, candid conversation with Prime Minister @narendramodi when I had an opportunity to personally convey my best wishes on this occasion. Our nations share the experience of standing up for freedom and dignity, as well as the pursuit of peace and development. We hope that India will contribute to efforts aimed at ending the war, so that our freedom and sovereignty are truly secure. I am confident that the potential for mutually beneficial Ukraine–India cooperation lies ahead — in science, technology, trade, and culture. Wishing peace and prosperity!

@piersmorgan Absolutely wasn't a fantastic bloke. Can pay your respects without lying. He was a racist and openly supported seeing a genocidal regime butcher children. Openly ridiculed those that showed sympathy for the dead. He was a hateful old twat
English
RIP James.. one of Britain’s all-time great radio talk show hosts and a fantastic bloke.
English
@DrHamze_M @piersmorgan What a lovely and sympathetic sentiment.
English
James White wasn’t a ‘fantastic bloke’ by any moral standard. If your idea of ‘fantastic’ is someone who platformed hate, mocked the oppressed, and pushed divisive rhetoric, then you’re clearly living on a different planet, Piers certainly not Earth. Spare us the fantasy eulogies.

@Keir_Starmer Taxpayer propping up failed enterprise. Back to the bad old days with Labour.
English
Today, my government has stepped in to save British Steel and secure Britain’s future.

@carolvorders I see no problem. And the best thing you can do with a loss making obsolete beast like Royal Mail is to liquidate it. I would not keep it as a going concern.
English
Capitalism purists
Royal Mail sold to a Czech billionaire
Water companies almost totally owned by foreign companies and govts
The list of what WE used to own goes on
Not how Thatcher/Major sold privatisation to us at all
Tories lied eh?
A pattern

@Nigel_Farage @DavidLammy The surrender of British territory ought to be subject to a referendum.
English
Parliament must be able to scrutinise Starmer’s decision to hand over the Chagos Islands — before a treaty is signed.
I have written to @DavidLammy to request an urgent debate and a vote in the House on Monday.
This surrender was not in the Labour manifesto.
