kirk got shot in the middle of the day and the cops don’t even know who they’re looking for. maybe putting podcasters in charge of federal law enforcement wasn’t the best idea for solving crimes

Gary Lineker on winning the National TV Award,

"It's not lost on me why I might have won this award"

"Aside from presenting Match of the Day.."

"Also, I think it demonstrates that perhaps it's ok sometimes to use our platform to speak up on behalf of those who have no voice"

When I was at Anglia TV about 25 yrs ago, a girl in our office sent out a team email that said, β€œIt’s been a crap Monday, who wants to come to my flat for a smoke?” Sadly she sent it to everyone in ITV. Melvyn was one of the first to reply with β€œThat sounds lovely but sadly I’m filming in Newcastle”

There was a quote on the BBC Sport feed saying that the fans can make a 10 man Newcastle team play like a 12 man Newcastle team and we showed that tonight. You can’t buy that with a single player.

For the most part I absolutely agree, but I will say I’ve watched some very sensitive, affecting documentaries recently around particular VAWG murders in the UK. Sky Docs channel and C4 tend to get it right more than the others - less sensationalism and more authenticity, and sadness, really.

So proud of them, and our fans for raising the roof. We rest, we recuperate and we go again.

I work in fostering and nothing gives you a fat dose of perspective more than children who’ve had nothing who are pushing on through life with hope & optimism. Some adults could stand to learn a lot from them.

Times: "Asylum protests swell across the UK " headline, reporting an underwhelming wave.

Leeds "draws 70"
Cardiff "disorganised + small"
Altrincham "*swelled* to around 200"
Cheshunt about 250
Chichester: about 100
Portsmouth: about 70 v 70 on each side

Went to the #nufc exhibition at The Baltic.
This photo immediately brought tears to my eyes.
Lucky to have these two. They get it. With their whole hearts.

we used to build household shrines to Going On The Computer and it's no coincidence that as we abandoned these we started straying further from god's light

Perhaps, one day, schoolkids will study this squalid little chapter in British terror-panic history. When they do, I hope these two headlines from today are printed side by side, with clear annotation of which individual faced more outrage and condemnation.

Robert Jenrick, the Tory Shadow Justice Secretary and former Home Office Minister, joining protesters outside an asylum hotel is one of the most disgusting acts by a frontline British politician in living memory.

then damn right we want Β£150m, for the inconvenience of it at the very least.

Always respected Isak as a player but I’m bored now. Get gone so we can get on with it and move on.

2 thoughts on the Isak thing; a) never thought he’d be a reverse Jamie Tartt - from team player to head up his own arse and b) he’s not worth Β£150m lets face it but if you want to take our core striker in the last few weeks before the start of the season & we have to rebuild our attack-

I’ve been single for most of my life; am I going around demanding love from people? No, I’m finding it in myself, in my friends, in my family & all the other places you can seek love that isn’t romantic or sexual. I’d love a partner but I’m content without. These β€˜men’ need to get a grip.

One of the ironies of Musk's Twitter crushing - as well as the death of new media like BuzzFeed - is that there is basically no ecosystem any more for nonsense woke overreaction to stuff. Which means the right now has to invent it to react against

I once heard Eric Adams described as "trying to win every interaction on a moment to moment level, leaving the overall experience incoherent and him coming off worse" and I sometimes wonder if that's not a good description of Starmer's government.

These problems require considered, intelligent solutions.

Any β€œtough on crime” policy which does not have this as its centrepiece is a distraction.

A con.

Don’t let con artists and hatemongers distract from the real issues.

There are significant problems with the way that sexual violence is dealt with in the criminal justice system.

There is chronic underreporting.

Investigations take years.

The court backlog means several more years before a trial.

Complainants give up.

Prosecutions collapse.

I prosecute and defend the most serious sexual offences in our courts.

The overwhelming majority of offenders are British-born. Overwhelmingly the victim is someone known to them, either a partner or relative.

Anybody purporting to care about protecting women might start there.

If you want a weird but true fact to talk about:

Dexter Holland, lead singer of The Offspring, was instrumental in this. His doctorial thesis in molecular biology was sequencing mRNA in HIV. The paper was also heavily cited in creating the COVID-19 vaccine.

I love that this Monday morning, after the mighty Lionesses win yesterday, there are little girls all over the North East and this country who woke up today knowing they can achieve their dreams.

If you can see it, you can be it. ❀️🦁
