My speech to the Conservative Party Conference on how to reverse the UK’s decline. I didn’t hold back. The state has grown in every sphere, almost without people noticing; a wild move to the left over two decades. Farage is a socialist (look at his actual economy policy!) who…

Is Rubble and Crew a new canon of #PawPatrol? I thought Rubble’s origin story was as an abandoned pup, but the trailer for R&C is with family members.

Typical Oz, it’s a return to their nasty years, remember monkeygate? Or ball tampering? It will end up with someone crying on TV.

Jonny Bairstow is run out! ❌ A MASSIVE moment in this Test match.

I know a learned high court judge who chairs rugby league disciplinary hearings. He sometimes gets criticised because he’s never played top level rugby league + points out “ I’ve presided over murder cases + I’ve never murdered anyone. It’s about knowing the law”

“I think ex-players should be in VAR. For 99% of decisions, they’d get the right decision.” ❌ “Some of these refs don’t have a clue.” Gabby Agbonlahor calls for ex-pros to be involved in the VAR process going forward 📺

12 years ago I watched a #NZvENG test in Hamilton. Test cricket in New Zealand is amazing, and underrated. Beautiful grounds, like a county ground, with great cricket.

WHAT A GAME OF CRICKET New Zealand have won it by the barest of margins... This is test cricket at its finest ❤️ #NZvENG
