Israel murders five Al Jazeera staff in Gaza, including Anas al-Sharif Al-Sharif was killed along with Mohammed Qreiqeh two cameramen and an assistant in an Israeli attack on Gaza City.

Last month, Anas al-Sharif sounded the alarm on starvation in Gaza. Israel accused him of terrorism.

"We warned this felt like a precursor to justify assassination," said Jodie Ginsberg of the Committee to Protect Journalists.

Today he was killed in a targeted strike on a tent housing reporters.

Antony Loewenstein: Israel has killed more journalists in the last 22 months than were killed in the US civil war, WW1, WW2, Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan combined.

What a guy!

My feelings exactly! Our second half performance stirred me into really wanting the win.

It was Andy, where are you drinking?

Allsop Arms breakfast. Winning. ❤️💙

Worth waiting for 😂

Quote of the day heard on a train packed with Palace fans discussing the FA Cup 'memorabilia' ticket.
"Did they think people would put it round their f*cking neck!"

Those tea ladies at Manchester United must have been on serious wages if their sackings allowed the club, on the brink of financial ruin according to the owner, to spend over £200m this summer.

Footnote from Sam's blog: "A parent at one school, which I’ve been asked not to name, was sent the following letter re: VAT: “We are, of course, looking forensically at how we spend every penny and are making sure that it represents both value for money and ensures a good return. That does mean that, regrettably, we are having to make difficult decisions whether to run ‘nice to have’ events and activities. I’m afraid, therefore, that this year we will not be providing hospitality at Henley Royal Regatta. This will I am sure, be a disappointment for some but the given the financial landscape in which we find ourselves, I feel sure that those affected will understand why we have had to do this”. It’s possible, as the parent notes, that the headteacher had their tongue in their cheek when writing this."

This is a footnote for the ages.

Nothing to do with performance or merit: purged from the military because of their identity and then robbed of the retirement they worked for.

It's like if Ratners was an interior designer

Gordon Brown is wiping the floor with the BBC Radio 4 presenter on child poverty at the moment. No spin, just pure moral clarity and data so sharp it should’ve come with a warning #r4today

This is true. I live in Italy. The UK media has been whipped into a hysterical disinformation frenzy by Farage and this, in turn, has led half the population (polls are clear) to lose the plot. For anyone who lives abroad and follows British news, it is quite evident, striking and disturbing.

Well, and terrifyingly, said.

In case you missed it ...
This is the size of the British market compared to the EU's Single Market (or European Economic Area). Each flag represents 10 million consumers.

The late great Robin Williams was 100% correct. Dannatt is bought and paid for - shame on him.

47% of people think immigration is primarily illegal. There were 4% irregular arrivals in March

New YouGov polling. A monumental failure of our political class to educate, a monumental failure of our media to report fairly, for a generation

Morecambe FC run out of cash today.

And even now, staff who aren’t even getting paid are making sure everyone is looked after.

Reporting here for Sky Sports News - and by the way, the spread here is better than we get at loads of bigger clubs higher up the food chain.

Grey painted toilet door. Two pictures are crudely stuck to the door. They depict the supposed pictograms for female & male - skirt & trousers wearer. Both are depicted with their legs crossed & hands in the crotch area.

This is a rural Irish petrol station. Not only is there a gender-neutral toilet, the sign depicts the exact pose you're in by the time you hobble cross-legged from your car via the counter to ask for the toilet key. The key is tied to something too large to accidentally pocket. WHAT'S NOT TO LOVE?

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.

Nigel Farage is right about London. I was there yesterday and there was a gang of men armed with sticks, waving them about, while a huge crowd cheered them on.

Is there anything much more repulsive than a very wealthy, safe, privileged Tory/Reform MP/commentator targeting deliveroo drivers and asylum-seekers in dismal hotels with their anti-immigrant, racist bile - to whip up civil unrest that they hope to use as their lever into power? No.

This man is a Conservative MP and former No.10 adviser.

Good point Andy, if that ever happens!
