We have chaos and Ed Miliband, they're just not evenly distributed.

Lunch with the FT this week is a proper scoop: our editor in chief Roula Khalaf with Richard Moore, outgoing head of MI6. Yes they have wine and talk about spies on.ft.com/43pMdJQ

That final point is absolutely crucial.

Maybe Keir should demand the heads of major US news networks any time they imply Britain is on the brink of civil war or that we live under sharia law. Or does it not work both ways?

Good for Mark Damazer standing up for the BBC and the thousands of extremely conscientious people who work for it. We lose it at our peril.

Good luck even trying to be objective in today’s heavily polarised environment. If people become accustomed to bias anything other than that won’t do.

That was lamentable from Liverpool. Utterly dismal.

Looks a teeny bit damp in Manchester

Looks like they got the wrong Liverpool out of the cupboard. Forgot to bring the team that beat Real Madrid.

Sunderland to win the league

So far, no acknowledgement of Samir Zitouni's heroism from Ben Habib, Darren Grimes or Tommy Robinson... #c4news

Outstanding from Liverpool. Superb stuff. Though of course it was all down to Ted. Not lost since we found him. Just saying. 😊😊😊 YNWA

What a load of nonsense VAR. pathetic.

Outstanding, no notes

Ted’s not worried at all 😬

Thread. Shouldn’t need saying but apparently it does.

We lost Worried Ted. Found him today. Won. What can I tell you? 🤷‍♀️

Win ✔️ Clean sheet ✔️Salah goal ✔️ Played better ✔️😊😊😊

Where did Tommy used to work? Of what did Gina dream? Why does she bring home her pay? as.ft.com/r/8a89f714-b...

The statement released by the Palace tonight

Whatever the logic behind Slot’s selection tonight, he left those young players floundering in a dismal loss in the pouring rain and pushed morale even lower #LFC

Turns out all it takes for Liverpool to win a game is for me not to watch 🤷‍♀️

Loved hearing the interview with the mediator on Broadcasting House this morning. Always fascinated by the work that goes into mediation - such skilled and surely sometimes exhausting work. Loved the plays Oslo and Kyoto for bringing the spotlight to them.

Absolutely superb effort by all those who voted for this, many of whom are now dead.

My word. The Weir.💔

Guy opposite me on the train eating his way calmly through a whole packet of chocolate bourbon biscuits. Respect.

One of the greats has passed. Robert Redford was a celebrated actor, director, and someone who held a mirror up to America. His work will live on, but we Ordinary People will feel The Sting of his loss for years. Rest among the stars now, and when you see heaven, may a River Run Through It.

I know we have low expectations for this White House, but in any other era the president and vice president would be working to ratchet down the tension and not trying to incite a civil war. Just, you know, a reminder.

Maybe some people on that march were perfectly reasonable. But a friend told me today about an encounter at a station with a flagwearing man who asked, aggressively, where her flag was. She said she wasn’t attending the march. He demanded why she didn’t care about her country. She was alone & scared
