Rooney: ‘I thought it was crap’ Legend

This half-time nonsense has made me crave a pie and a smelly toilet with wee all over the floor as you hear someone shout ‘these are shite these’ Make half-time great again

Kinda mad that Argentina’s team is the greatest player of all time + a gang of absolute snides

Argentina player produces a hack saw and removes Lamine Yamal’s right leg from the knee down Referee: ‘That’s your final warning now. Next time it’s a yellow…maybe’

AKA Rocky AKA Pharell Williams

Guy Mowbray: ‘I think that was AKA Rocky, I mean ASAP Rocky’ It was very much Pharell Williams

I do admire how Rodri always has his shirt tucked in. Proper chap.

Ryan Fox that was incredible

I meet people every week when out vox popping who are completely convinced that small boat crossings are rising exponentially. They aren’t - they are falling substantially. Journalists and politicians have a duty to get this message across. Some are mendacious, others just incompetent.

Go on Tommy lad!

It’s getting irritating seeing Reform politicians accusing others of ‘incitement’ The same guys who call others traitors, who say ‘a reckoning is coming’ and call for ‘pure, cold, rage’ Oh and they invited a woman who called for asylum seeker hotels to be burnt down to speak at their conference

Royal Birkdale doing Merseyside proud. Looking absolutely glorious as a backdrop for some scintillating golf.

If you want to know where Andy Burnham's journey towards this point really started - and where the genesis for his key message came from, you will find it on the pitch at Anfield on April 15 2009

Not a nail-biter!

Just to recap: Calling Nigel Farage “an unflushable poo” = dehumanising hate speech. Calling for hotels housing asylum seekers to be set on fire = guest of honour at party conference. Bless those non-racist free speech warriors.

On Tuesday I was honoured to travel down to Parliament to be with Hillsborough families and campaigners on the historic day that a new Hillsborough Law passed through the House of Commons This film shows what we witnessed as history was made

Rooney knows it: We completely invited that on ourselves

On a serious note. It was a massive mistake to instantly sit back after our goal and just invite pressure. The defensive subs then added to this and meant that if they were too equalised, we were always in further trouble.

Well that’s a shame. But on the bright side I don’t have to worry about a Monday hangover and further resentment from a wife who detests this sport.

Always been a fan of a hydration break

Mea culpa: I was very down on Anthony Gordon at the start of this tournament but he’s been a vital player. His pace and movement have made a lot happen. My bad.

That tackle is the sequel

Gordon Bennet!

Anthony Barry: ‘I’ll fucking have that Simeone twat if he keeps this shit up’

Simeone. The Shithouse apple doesn’t fall far from the shithouse tree.

Highlights package of this match so far

The Djed Spence story within this tournament alone could be a biopic

Spicy already this!

If this case progresses, it will be an interesting reckoning for Reform’s position on online speech It relates to a post on X, but Lucy Connolly was celebrated as a "political prisoner" and given a speaking slot at Reform conference after being jailed for an X post

Fantastic news and so necessary, unfortunately. It would be great to have a similar law passed here in the US. Congratulations to the Hillsborough campaigners. Justice for the 97. #YNWA

A day to remember the 97, their indefatigable families, and Liam Thorp’s brilliant reporting #jft97

Today’s @liverpoolecho.co.uk

www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/news-op... www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/news-op... a powerful piece. About power, who wields it and what it takes for ordinary people to change the country. @liamthorp.bsky.social

Beautifully written @liamthorp.bsky.social - you definitely found the words.

A quite wonderful and moving article by a journalist who has done so much to help to bring about #jft97

I’m a little bit lost for words when trying to sum up the spirit and fortitude of the Hillsborough families But after the privilege of watching them make history again today - I’ve tried to sum it all up here…

A historic day. A privilege to witness.

The country owes these people a debt of gratitude. Ordinary people who have achieved something extraordinary. Heroes every one.

Andy Burnham hugs Hillsborough campaigner Margaret Aspinall after a landmark Hillsborough Law finally passed through the House of Commons today A moment in history

People having endless calls on loudspeaker on trains should be tried for war crimes.

You know it’s a big day for the city of Liverpool when both the current and incoming Prime Minister are writing in the @liverpoolecho.co.uk

It will be an honour to travel down to Westminster today to watch as the Hillsborough families finally get the new law, named after their loved ones, through the House of Commons Credit to everyone involved for breaking the deadlock and getting this bill on its way to becoming law

Writing exclusively for the @liverpoolecho.co.uk, Andy Burnham, a vital figure in the battle for Hillsborough truth and justice, pays tribute to the families of the 97 Liverpool fans killed on that awful day in 1989 as a bill in their name makes its final journey through the House of Commons

RIP Sam Neill. Damn.

Few politicians have done more to push the cause of devolution and the spreading of power out of Westminster than Lord Michael Heseltine I spoke to the man dubbed the 'Minister for Merseyside' this week to ask about his views on Andy Burnham's plan to tear up the way Whitehall operates...

Exclusive: After months of delays and wrangling, the landmark Hillsborough Law bill WILL return to clear its final stages through the House of Commons this week A huge moment on its route to becoming a vital new law

Bellingham though. Seriously what a fella.

Went to see The Streets last night. A great set and a reminder of what a brilliantly unique project Mike Skinner put together. Class.
