#Stanley v Cheltenham tomorrow. Our play continues to develop, together with confidence. Now up to 14th position, this was a dream just a few weeks ago when we were around the bottom of league 2. C'mon #AccringtonStanley

A great match today, #Stanley matching promotion chasing Walsall all the way. The manager is correct, there are no teams in League 2 that we fear. Great save by Ollie Wright in extra time. C'mon #AccringtonStanley

shorturl.at/MqiNA Trump's condescending, contemptuous & disgusting comments give an insight into a twisted mind. Any reasonable empathic person knows that a draft dodger should never denigrate servicemen. Of couse Trump has form, in fact he's denigrated US servicemen in the same breath as others.

#Trump's incoherence & irrationality really coming home to roost. He threatens the existence of Nato by pushing for control over #Greenland, even though the people of Greenland don't want US domination. He imposes tariffs but wants cooperation from the same countries on #Gaza!!

#Gaza 'Board of Peace' raises many questions. Put aside the wild delusional rhetoric of #Trump & we have a proposed Board to develop Gaza with not one person from Gaza on it. Such arrangements used to by called colonialism. Trump is more concerned with greed, personal aggrandisement and narcissism.

#Stanley v MKDons tomorrow. The team are rested and ready to go. The transfer window is worrying, but it seems that Ollie Wright and Isaac Heath are staying, great news for the club. To continue the push into the top half of the table we need good players. C'mon #AccringtonStanley.

No, private schools aren’t victims of ‘reverse discrimination’ – and Cambridge should know better | Lee Elliot Major Trinity Hall’s plan to target elite schools sends the message that privilege equals talent, when the reality is that poorer students are already on the back foot, says professor of social mobility at ...

shorturl.at/gjhgz The UK is one of the most unequal advanced countries in the world. It is therefore distressing to report that Trinity Hall Cambridge is to favour admissions from elite private schools. This is a dark day for fairness. #ComprehensiveFuture #CASE #fairness #nosnobbery

'We've had enough of this US President' said a Greenlander on BBC Today. No wonder, a narcissist, liar, and an empaty desert isn't an appropriate leader. Greed of course enters here. Formost in current US thinking will be the billions of $ of precious metals that belong to the people of #Greenland.

The irony of Danny Kruger accusing the BBC of left-wing bias when Reform UK - with just 5 MPs - gets more airtime than the Liberal Democrats, who have 72 MPs.

The BBC doesn't have a left-wing bias.
