James Anderson really is an unsung hero. Incredible what he’s put into Hearts.

Braverman deleted this tweet which made me wonder who that previous prisoner was. His name was Junead Ahmed. He was a conman mistakenly released in 2023. She was Home Secretary at the time. Oh.

He has pretensions to be a Ferrari driver but can only manage a Honda Civic.

So my daughter is back from Cambridge just for Sunday lunch. She wants a proper roast dinner with roast spuds and Yorkshires. Takes a bit of work on the timing but no problem, we will have a lovely chill time.

I thought. /1

Having a pre match brunch and while I munch reading a piece on narcissists. Apparently they’re fragile people. Yep, we’ve certainly seen plenty evidence of that these last few years.

A BBC Sport article on Rashford confuses β€˜complimented’ and β€˜complemented’. What hope for anyone else?

They must figure folk aren’t going to cycle in the wet though. No mudguards around these parts ain’t a good thing.

One observation on the Louvre robbery, having been there a couple of time recently.

There is immense 'security theatre' for visitors waiting to get in.

And what has happened affirms the general rule: the greater the 'security theatre' the weaker the actual security.

First he came for fruit and veg farmers by deporting the workforce. Then he came for soy bean farmers by antagonising China. Then he came for cattle ranchers by subsidising Argentinian beef. They voted for him. #Trumped

Standing with Maccabi’s football hooligans against local police – is that what patriotism looks like now? | Jonathan Liew Tommy Robinson is said to be going to Villa Park as a Maccabi Tel Aviv fan. Do the politicians jumping on this bandwagon care what they are doing, asks Guardian columnist Jonathan Liew

My god, the sheer relief of reading a piece by someone who knows something about this football match and didn't just learn to spell Maccabi two days ago www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

I think they’re celebrating him being the fastest sacking in Premier League history.

handwritten note from Carter-Ruck's file saying "They will bring in blockchain -> if no blockchain -> scam -> fraud -> criminal"

handwritten note from Carter-Ruck's file saying "They will bring in blockchain -> if no blockchain -> scam -> fraud -> criminal"

NEW: Britain’s top libel firm, Carter-Ruck, acted for OneCoin - a $4bn crypto-fraud.

The firm threatened whistleblowers, journalists, regulators, and even the police.

Carter-Ruck's work helped the fraud continue as long as it did.

Was that a crime?
