Amazon are partnering with Comic Relief to sell their red noses. Last year Comic Relief raised £34 million which is how much Jeff Bezos makes in six hours. Dig deep everyone.

So you can now be sent off for denying the opportunity to score a goal that was scored. Well done to the footballing authorities.

They've managed to frame an article to make it sound like parents value the current EHCP system which, for many, is a long and laborious route to basic support. It is clearly a system that should only be used to assign significant support in a specialist setting.

To remember the suffering of our Lord I'm driving three hours to Brunton Park to watch Carlisle v Port Vale. Except in this version, I'm hoping Jesus kicks the s*** out of a legionary and doesn't get crucified.

For some the first sign of spring is an emergent daffodil, the song of a chiff chaff or the smell of mown grass. But for me, it is summer hours at the tip.

It might not seem like the major issue, but the historical illiteracy of an American administration complaining that freeloading Europeans haven't done enough to militarily control the Suez Canal is quite the thing, eh?
