I got the alert first in my house. Shortly before my wife and my dad. So top marks for HM Government for ensuring that the truly vital for the recovery of civilisation from Armageddon are prioritised.

I can’t work out if an Eagle counts as Environment, Rural Affairs or Food

Football pundit explains the concept of the market

Everton are about to sign a player called Merlin but he is not a wing wizard. Total fail. #efc

Italia 90 redefined English football. It kick started the recovery in our love affair with the game that has launched the Premier League into global hegemony. My key takeaway? ‘Can you cut my hair to look like Chris Waddle please?’

Jonathan Pearce literally said ‘the game’s gone’ on match of the day today. Scenes.

I just told my four year old son the half time score from Everton at Wolves. ‘Daddy…why do Everton win ALL the time???’ ‘Son. It’s possible I don’t always remember to tell you the score….’

Errr…. Have very online Corbynista bros taken over the French media ? #keith 🇫🇷

I have just seen a young lady get on a train with a tent, sleeping bag, pillow and **multiple socks hanging in her hair **. It turns out it is a TikTok hair curling trend?

My son saw this sign in the doctors waiting room and shouted ‘look there is some wine for daddy!’ Really loud

EVEN LESS REASON TO NOT STOP DREAMING

FOUR YEARS OF HURT NEVER STOPPED ME DREAMING

We were born within an hour of each other… Our mothers said we could be sister and brother…

In my view the person offering the training is entirely wrong and this young person is correct. The problem with answering the phone and not saying hello is **that you have answered the phone**

Incredibly this has been followed up with ‘Our beloved snake is missing…devastated. If you see her pls call me. She’s very friendly and easy to handle, will happily curl up on your lap if you’re willing to handle her. She’s a Royal python.. around 2 ft long.’ IT’S A DIFFERENT SNAKE

Went to see Fiddler on the Roof tonight and sat to my wife’s right were two full on Mormon ladies with ‘Chuch of Latter Day Saints’ badges from Utah. For some reason my wife did NOT ask them if they preferred Book of Mormon.

This was such a great bash to celebrate a fab book and person. Out imminently www.panmacmillan.com/authors/laur... The Art of a Lie by Laura Shepherd-Robinson - Pan Macmillan

Quite fitting that in the week that Norman Tebbit has died I will be spending a day at the England v India Test match. A fascinating figure.

Alexander-Arnold’s Spanish is so good I’m surprised his new squad number isn’t 30.

The Westminster arms v two chairman joke is potentially the most Westminster bubble joke ever conceived. I love it.

The home insurance market is totally weird. existing supplier wrote to me and told me ‘we are raising the cost of your insurance by 40%.’ So I went online; found a policy indistinguishable for half the price. Signed up and cancelled the other one. Easy, but…. A total waste of everyone’s time? 1/2

Vindication for Tijjani Reijnders who has got his big move to Man City. Hard to think all the other Reijnders used to laugh and call him names.

They’re really unpleasant and always have been

Trump pursues Blair era social policies … an (occasional) series. To be fair, he’s already done super casinos.

Hilarious messages to get on the street WhatsApp group: Bit of a long shot but does anyone know someone who has a corn snake as a pet? One was in my garden earlier! I’m assuming it’s an escapee.

Name the Four Everton Managers have scored a goal in an FA cup semi final.

If anyone ever asks me what county liverpool is in I always share this incredible video youtu.be/whYOiiJP0t8?...

40 years at the top and Big Nev is still iconic

Saw us presented with the title on my second visit - this one. Downhill from there somewhat 😂 youtu.be/x93nvPj80Ts?...

Feeling mawdlin’ about Goodison Park memories. My first game was a 5-2 win against Newcastle in 1986/7. In the full members cup. Graeme Sharp Hat-trick. I was 6 I think. youtu.be/mWU2LJ_tS7s?...

No. Neither he nor Steve coppell nor any other of my fellow school alumni. Les Dennis or Lennon.

Neither are in the top 50

No. 22nd on the list own behind Geoff hurst. The player I’m looking for was 17th on the list and has one more top flight goal than Harry Kane.

Nope. Not even the top 50

There are two Everton players in the top 20 all time scorers in the English top flight (old div 1 plus prem). Dixie dean and….

The only stadium in Liverpool to be home to league title winners closes its doors today for the last time for the men’s team. End of an era.

Iceland won the Eurovision Song Contest this year

We’ve organised a first past the post vote with 26 candidates on one side of a highly polarised debate and one from the other side. And the other side seems to be doing well. They must be winning it due to a nefarious globalist conspiracy!

UK public gave it nul points for a reason

scrap the jury votes. That’s a terrible song to win.

This thread is really funny in a sort of wholly depressing kind of way. George is of course correct. The increasingly disbelieving replies are very instructive about the mismatch between expectations and delivery for a government that has been in power **10 months**. Fascinating to watch.
