There’s a part of me that wishes Matt Hancock said stuff like this in one of his Covid press conferences.

Feels like it’s impossible to go anywhere without seeing advertising for #WutheringHeights. And just the 29 opportunities to see it at one local cinema tomorrow …

Just what everyone needs to end the day after all the Jim Ratcliffe stuff … Nadine Dorries and her take on it all on #BBCQT tonight.

I don’t think the last line in this BBC piece was intended as a punchline but it made me laugh.

Jim Ratcliffe says he's sorry if people were offended by what he said about "the UK being colonised" by migrants. A classic of the non-apology apology genre www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/jim-ra...

Great statement. And belting last line too.

Thoroughly enjoyed this series which finished tonight. Bit close to the bone at times but brilliantly observed. www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

Tonight’s winner of the best take on the Ratcliffe diatribe.

Oh great. Now we have the pseudo intellectual ping pong guy offering his thoughts on the Ratcliffe rant on #Newsnight.

I've never known anyone who was obsessed with immigration who wasn't an out and out loser and an absolute racist bigot. I'm saying it because it's simply not said enough.

Beginning to think all these zillionaires may not be very nice people at all. If it’s not sex trafficking, it’s overt racism.

Radcliffe should remember we immigrants and children of immigrants are here because of British colonisation and make a huge contribution. He moved to Monaco to avoid £4bn tax. His club Man U owes everything to migrant players and migrant supporters. He’s an embarrassment to the club and game.

At least Jim Ratcliffe and his racist rant has stopped the media banging on about that Utd fan and his hair.

Pleased to get home after the football to see Jim Ratcliffe has been getting rightly vilified for his repulsive immigrants comments.

Great catching up with @mancunianmedic.bsky.social at the football tonight. Pretty much solved all the problems in politics and the NHS.

Unexpected treat seeing @flavorflav.bsky.social in the @mancity.com programme tonight! #MCIFUL @publicenemyno1.bsky.social @kcmanc.bsky.social

Uber wealthy Brexit-backing Monaco resident to avoid tax says immigrants are colonising the UK. Add this to the list of reasons to hate Man Utd. news.sky.com/story/the-uk...

50 days to go until the start of the #countycricket season, not that I’m counting.

Presumably this quote is about himself?

Every time I see Banton, all I can think of is Pato. #ENGvWI #T20WorldCup

Uneventful over from Archer then. #EngvWI #T20WorldCup

Probably the most upsetting thing about this #PMQs is seeing that imbecile Mark Francois on the front bench. I’d totally forgotten he existed.

The 1970’s lives strong in this chap with his old school combover. #PMQs

Might be the first #PMQs for a while that might be worth the watch.

Great to see Steve Smith being called INTO a tour as a result of something unusual happening to a ball.#T20WorldCup 🏏

I really need to stop hearing about that Man Utd fan and his hair. Does anyone apart from the media actually care?

Even as a doctor, I winced reading about the details of Mitchell Marsh’s injury. #T20WorldCup www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cricke...

Never been a huge fan of the T20 format, but this #T20WorldCup has been so much fun. Just need one of these close games to eventually finish with an upset.

Binged this last night and I totally concur with this review. If you enjoyed The Detectorists, or anything by Mackenzie Crook for that matter, you’ll love this. #SmallProphets www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio...

Sky cutting the feed the moment that bonkers #SAvAFG game ended was not ideal. At least the post-match reaction was on TMS. #T20WorldCup

How is anyone expected to focus on work on a Monday morning when they’ve scheduled Oman v Zimbabwe at 9:30am in the #T20WorldCup.

Battle of the hair transplants on #MOTD tonight.

The new film adaptation of #Hamlet is quite something. Riz Ahmed superb in it.

Suddenly it’s become fun waiting to hear Carragher pipe up now.

Loved Rodri having to be picked up from the floor due to sheer disbelief at that mad ending. #ManCity #mcfc #LIVMCI

Is it worth checking if VAR features in the Epstein Files as well so we can get that binned too? #LIVMCI #PremierLeague #ManCity

The best bit about that late Haaland winner was his dad’s reaction. #mcfc #ManCity #LIVMCI

JASASDHKFAIWEOIFQWHEOIHAEIFHSOIEDHGOQIWRGHDFJQWIOEHODFBABDNGOQWIRGIOQWBGBIWOQGBOIBGAOSDGBAISO

I’ve seen this play out this way too often to be surprised any more. #LIVMCI #ManCity

Pep spitting all over himself sums up all of us #ManCity fans. #LIVMCI

Great start from #ManCity. Ergo expecting to lose. #LIVMCI

Already tough watching the Sky #LIVMCI coverage, not due to the stress … mainly because of having to endure Carragher. #ManCity

Now worried @number10cat.bsky.social may be next on the list to get the boot, as Starmer tries to cling on through all this Mandelson mess.

Watched the first 2 episodes of this and it’s brilliant so far, which is unsurprising given it’s been adapted by Jack Thorne. Beautifully shot too. #LordOfTheFlies

Given England have actually picked their best XI for a change, it would actually be fun if Nepal pulled off a win here. #NEPvENG #T20WorldCup

After yesterday’s ill judged Mandelson puff piece in the Times, I thought I’d get The Observer today as some safe space. I was wrong …

Today is all about waiting for the inevitable crushing disappointment of #ManCity losing at Anfield. #LIVMCI

It’s up there in the category of challenging arthouse films, but I really enjoyed. The unexpected appearances from Jim Belushi and Kim Gordon were a bonus. #TheChronologyofWater
