Last night so deflating for #safc. Worry now is that the season peters out into dead rubbers and Sunderland head into the play offs with no momentum. Still think this side is better than Shef U and Burnley, but games running out to catch them.

President Trump last night briefly phoned in to a meeting between PM Keir Starmer and the US Special Envoy to the UK, Mark Burnett.

Ukraine did not come up during the call, which only lasted a couple of minutes.

A β€œforthcoming visit to the US” was discussed, but no date agreed.

Many say they'll stand down in May when their council term expires - but Labour, Conservatives and Lib Dems essentially say it's for individual MPs to decide whether and when to step aside.

Of the 62 MPs who are also councillors, almost half claim money for their council job.

1 in 10 MPs are also local councillors - and half of them have turned up to fewer than 50% of local council meetings since they were elected to parliament.

Keir Starmer hits back at Elon Musk - he says β€œa line has been crossed” with β€œlies” about child sexual abuse.

β€œThose who are cheerleading Tommy Robinson aren’t interested in justice, they’re supporting a man who went to prison for nearly collapsing a gang grooming case.”

Prue Leith to ITV News on whether we're on the cusp of a change in assisted dying law:

"Gosh I hope so, we should be because it’s been a long time coming, and if we don’t grab the opportunity to change the law this time, it could be years again and many more people suffering."

NEW: More than 170 MPs have requested to speak in tomorrow's debate on assisted dying.

The debate is scheduled to last for no more than five hours - so it's likely many MPs won't have time to speak.

Nigel Farage wants to be prime minister after the next election.

A few years ago, he’d have been laughed out of Westminster for saying it. Not now.

Kamala Harris raised $1B-plus in defeat. She’s still sending persistent appeals to donors. The Democratic Party is flooding Harris’ lucrative email donor list with near-daily appeals aimed at small-dollar donors.

This is jaw-dropping. $1 BILLION raised and they still couldn't balance the books. Nor win the election.
