This tweet has been doing the rounds on Twitter now that Nathan Gill has pleaded guilty.

If only someone had tried to investigate UKIP & Russian interference 🧐

There’s another timeline where the Guardian supported me, doubled down on the investigation & I look 5 years younger ..

Heads it's awkward, tails it's awkward for the prime minister Starmer on the left in a white shirt with a mic pinned to it and Rayner next to him in a black blazer and white shirt. Both are sitting in an audience and smiling. Image source,PA Media Chris Mason Political editor @ChrisMasonBBC Published 2 hours ago It feels like crunch time for Angela Rayner. Plenty of folk at Westminster reckon today is the day her fate will be determined.

More deep insight from the hospital radio DJ who is somehow politics editor at the BBC.

1) Get elected.

2) Remove rainbow flag from council building.

3) Scratch head with no idea of what to do next.

What do you think about the coking coal mine in Cumbria that was not given planning consent? You could argue that is strategically important to go with the steel plant.

Interesting. My son is a teacher in the north of England and he said it was the most realistic school depiction he’s seen on TV.

There’s a couple of interesting names in the Orient team 😊⚽️

Carragher or Jonny Smith for me

As a podcast, it's well known that we were 100% behind Shaun Maloney as Latics boss

We are extremely disappointed at the decision to relieve him of his position and wish Shaun all the best for the future

A legend, a gentleman and a true 'tic 💙

Illinois Governor, JB Pritzker, with an empowering and emotional speech.

"The authoritarian playbook is laid bare here. They point to a group of people who don't look like you and tell you to blame them for your problems"

The amount of secondhand embarrassment I have even just watching this is through the roof.

It played pretty well in my opinion

I’ve finally logged out of Twitter this evening. I can’t face any more #wafc mindless negativity. I can accept the constructive criticism, but the mindless negativity is draining.
I’m convinced some of them are bots from rival teams 😑

You’ll both be there, and dad, when it comes to the crunch. Don’t give up on them.

It’s a chicken and egg situation. Something has to be first. The contrast between home and away performances indicates what’s wrong, in my opinion.
I’m not saying it’s easy and I am a fundamentally person ⚽️

For all the doubters, how are these not the same?

Don’t miss. The team needs your support and some positive encouragement from the stands ⚽️

I’m here too ⚽️😊
