England didn't take my advice about Samson.
I told them the only way they'd get him out for a low score is if they cut his hair off!!

This is so true. I see so much withering scorn directed at Polanski and the Greens coming from Labour supporters and activists here on this platform and honestly it comes across as defensive and nasty and couldnโ€™t be less likely to win me over. But Iโ€™m the kind of voter they need to win back.

Are memories that short?
Boris Johnson:
- Brexit
- Attempted suspension of Parliament
- Partygate
- PPE scandal
Why would anyone care what he thinks and why is Kuenssberg giving him airtime? #bbclaurak

Why didn't Farage just answer the question about Reform's education policy?

Why did he seek to mock and ridicule the journalist asking a perfectly legitimate question and try to deligitimise the FT?

Easy. That's who he is. An arrogant man who doesn't have any policies beyond pointing at the sea.

Italy meet England for the first time in international cricket - can they spring a surprise against the two-time #T20WorldCup champions?

Both sides are unchanged as England opt to bat first at Eden Gardens

The worst day in our cricketing history was when we were 21-7 against Estonia in July 2023.

We realised our players had consumed more sausages in Tallinn the previous day than runs currently scored on the pitch.

Those statistics were stark and marked a key inflection point.

We are geographically, tectonically part of Europe. We're not part of the United States; we're not that side of the Atlantic, we're on this side of the Atlantic. 

We are now probably more friendless and more adrift as a country than we have been for three, four hundred years. Clearly, the relationship with the United States is quite different to what most of us were accustomed to in the postwar period.

And we cut ourselves off from what remains one of the most prosperous, borderless markets in the world.

We damaged our relationship with the largest free market in the world, Europe. It's time to rejoin the Single Market and Customs Union, and repair our relationship with Europe.

All I want is a quaint chรขteau in the French countryside, a raging snowstorm, a crackling fire, a vintage copy of Victor Hugoโ€˜s The Hunchback of Notre Dame, a whistling kettle on the stove, an owl keeping watch, and a basket of emotional support croissants.

Viking intimidation

Viking intimidation

When we won our first international match over the Swiss by 215 runs in 2018, we drove a car over a Toblerone and did a Viking thunderclap to celebrate. It is important to cultivate an intimidating aura.
