Morning all.. just want to test public opinion on this one - ITV will be showing IN PLAY ads during 6 Nations this year - is that a reflection of pressure on commercial broadcasters these days? Will it inevitably move to other events eg World Cup/Champions League... Let us know what you think.

Hello... Flu season is hitting hard this year - is it only polite to wear a face mask - esp if you have symptoms? Also talking about Gerry McCann's calls for more press regulation, champions league, why TODAY at 9am is the best time to do your Xmas shopping, and saying NO to festive invitations.

Frustrating day for Lioness and Wales fans yesterday. But both fans upbeat their teams will improve. Here’s the stadium in Zurich yesterday before and during the game. The England fans around us were booed for not doing the Mexican wave - were they right to stand firm? 👋

So the news today - pretty much focussed on the UK heatwave, the ongoing row over reform to benefits, and some Glastonbury fall out. But the thing that's grabbed my attention - new stats on the decline of entry level jobs since launch of AI, which is all mildly (hugely) terrifying. 📻 BBC 5live

Hi... Some questions for you to ponder this morning. * Is there any point in politicians apologising? * Should patients ask permission before filming medical procedures? * Should abortion beyond 24 weeks be decriminalised? * How can we build water supply resilience (and use less water)?
