Watching a fare evader dodge death was horrifying - we need a crackdown, but at what cost? When a rail passenger leaps in front of a train to evade a swarm of ticket inspectors clad in stab-proof vests, it begs the question: how far are we prepared to go to reclaim a fare?

I wrote a little something on fare evasion in the wake of Robert Jenrick’s viral video - and after one such dodger nearly lost his life attempting to flee inspectors.

It’s been 50 years since Lella Lombardi became the first woman to score points in F1.

She remains the only woman to do so.

I know change takes time but…

It’s giving me Truss / QEII vibes.

Thought Easter Monday was meant to be about the rise and not the fall? #PopeFrancis

RIP Pope Francis. Vance really took it out of him…

I just paid £13 for a glass of house wine in North London. I’m officially ready to leave this city.

I think Trump just clarified what grocery shopping involves. Glad to have cleared that up.

Interesting that Mexico, Canada and notably Russia, have not made Trump’s bingo card.

Oh wait, I will be from tomorrow…

If the average American worker can make heads or tails of these figures Trump is reeling off then, by jove, I’ll pay you the tariffs out of my own pocket.

Corey Brooker is still going strong.

I massively rate the UK’s Eurovision entry this year.

The only thing with Remembering Monday’s track is…

I keep finding myself singing ‘Scotty Doesn’t Know’ from Eurotrip at the very end.

I can hear the cries of Californians as their plans for a ‘Whispering Angel Summer’ dry up.

‘200% wine tariffs?! We did not vote for this man!’

Am I the only one who finds Trump’s sporadic use of capital letters anxiety inducing?

LIVE: 'Zelenskyy isn't ready for peace if US is involved', says Trump as White House meeting descends into chaos Donald Trump and Volodymyr Zelenskyy engaged in an unprecedented White House clash on Friday, as the US President told Ukraine they were "gambling with World War Three".

My neighbour’s three-year-old child has taken up karaoke. She loves the reverb it seems.

She discovered her talents at six am this morning. For context, I finished a night shift just after two am.

Got bless Japan.

Ah yes, New Zealand, that renowned third world country…

Trump has claimed diversity and inclusion had a part to play in the Washington American Airlines crash, preempting official investigation findings.

Taking aim at the Federal Aviation Administration, he added: ‘The FAA were actually recruiting workers with severe intellectual disabilities’.

Musk promised the same package to Twitter employees when he took over. Most received all but a month’s pay.

They’re bringing out the big guns for train cancellation bingo this morning.

‘More trains than usual needing repairs’ followed by a ‘shortage of train crew’.

Powerful combo for the fourth cancellation in a row. Happy Monday! 👏🏻

Really rather enjoyed this disection of Trump from a British POV

What. A. Night. Of. Exceptional. Telly.

TRAITORS

Meta appears to have made millions of accounts auto-follow VP Vance.

Meta is denying this is the case.

*Checks personal account*

Yes, I too have seemingly followed the crowd (and this newly created account).

Coming at this from a layman’s standpoint, but won’t a VPN be a workaround following the #TikTokBan ?

California burns while the incoming President sets his sights on Greenland and Panama 🇵🇦

According to Mark Zuckerberg, people who live in California are biased but people who live in Texas are objective

Musk-Farage has to be one of the darkest games of trans-Atlantic, political ping pong I’ve seen in a long while.

I might even be tempted to call it comical, were it not for the fact the far-Right are getting more airtime than they deserve.

The internet is full of lovely people.

Email to my personal account in response to reporting on Musk’s comments towards Jess Phillips.

When you break it down:

- rich white man runs company into the ground
- throws tantrums
- fires employees at will
- goes on nonsensical social media rants
- makes outlandish claims about foreign leaders
- dances like Peter Crouch

Now, is this Elon, or is this Trump?

The Smithy / Mick moment. Pass a tissue.
