Very grateful to Sarah Sackman MP for coming to #Thetford today to support our local by-election campaign. Great support from local people who appreciate everything we’re doing locally to improve the area and my work as the new Labour Member of Parliament for South West #Norfolk

Given how strongly eg Unite leader Len McCluskey campaigned for Brexit, I hope this new more enlightened stance comes with an apology

Senior figure in English football raped then paid underage girl, court documents claim The man, who works in the Premier League, is protected by an anonymity order. He denies rape but has admitted a β€˜cash for sex’ deal with the girl aged β€˜16 or just 17’

I wonder who this could possibly be?

The most beautiful day to walk from Diss to Long Stratton on Boudicca's Way.

Americano coffee alongside a cheese and red onion baguette from the Angel CafΓ©, Fair Green a stonking 9/10.

Brancaster to Hunstanton to complete the Norfolk Coast Path.

There's a old saying "There's no such thing as bad weather, only bad equipment" and that was tested to destruction yesterday with temperatures around 4C, 40 mph winds and horizontal rain...

You must assume Steitden was brought in to stop the rot.

Yet here we are with Fulkrug, an old, injury prone striker on high wages with zero potential for resale

West Ham’s striker obsession remains unresolved after years of failure | Jacob Steinberg Graham Potter must quickly get to grips with the club’s failure to sign the right centre-forward over the last 15 years

As usual @jacobsteinberg1.bsky.social is spot on the money!

All the strikers West Ham have bought - and the only three that have succeeded: Arnie, Antonio and Bowen were purchased as wingers

First walk of the year; a nice short one to ease us back in. Angles Way final leg from Redgrave to Knettishall.

Mexican chicken roll from Greggs and Americano coffee from Starbucks 8/10.

Objectionable and unnecessarily aggressive Thelnetham farmer 0/10.

Aston Villa 2-1 West Ham.

A more resilient Hammers side under new man Potter undone by some scandalous officiating but also a bench with nowhere near the quality of the opposition.

We're all thankful Lopetegui has gone - but Steidten needs to follow him...

Calls for clarity as risk rating for Western Link scheme raised to 'red' Council leaders have been urged to reveal howΒ they would coverΒ the Β£34m the authority might have to pay back if the Norwich Western Link road…

The Norwich Western Link Road was always an environmentally & financially reckless policy. Norfolk Tories ignored clear risks - including the likelihood planning permission would not be given. Now they’ve pumped huge sums of money into it and are busy blaming others

Lopetegui bequeaths identity-free West Ham and major challenges for Potter | Jacob Steinberg Julen Lopetegui was always the wrong choice for West Ham and Potter is walking into a job where surgery is required alongside a clear vision

Damning of Lopetegui sure, but also Sullivan and Steidten, both of whom share a large degree of responsibility for the mess the club find themselves in

Starmer sets out plans to cut hospital backlog with millions more appointments The proposals aim to ensure 92% of patients are seen within 18 weeks for pre-planned care such as hip and knee replacements.

Under this Labour government, millions of patients will get the treatment they need, faster.

Today the PM will outline our plans to restore our NHS and make it work for every single patient.

Man City 4-1 West Ham.
I expected nothing from this game.

But...

1.2 xG from 17 shots the story of our season offensively, while only three sides have a worse defensive record at the other end of the pitch. Both stats damning of the head coach.

Good to see Spurs getting absolutely plastered whilst playing the football the right way. Forest and Bournemouth sit in the top six with their direct styles but it feels like we're not allowed to acknowledge these things at West Ham because David Moyes is the antichrist.

β€˜Even diehard Conservatives would not vote for her’: how Liz Truss tried to remake herself after her spectacular election defeat Booted out of her Norfolk constituency in July’s general election, the former PM is still wildly ambitious. Will she make a comeback?

As one of the members of Terry's team mentioned, it's difficult to overstate just how much Truss is/was loathed, even by Tories

I believe the decision not to compensate WASPI women was wrong.

I have written to the Secretary of State urging her to change her mind on the matter.

Club Statement | Michail Antonio update | West Ham United F.C. West Ham United can confirm that Michail Antonio is in a stable condition following a road traffic accident this afternoon in the Essex area.

Not great news obviously... but far better than some of the rumours flying around.

Wishing Michail a speedy and full recovery
