This sucks for Carla Denyer, but showing that an MP can prioritise their mental health in this way is a good thing, and should be reflected across politics

No idea why Tuchel is getting all the hate over his squad selection. Toney's experience playing in half-empty stadiums under an authoritarian regime could prove invaluable.

It always amazes me when corporate Comms fail the 'does this make me sound like a Bond villain?' test

Thought: what about the Lib Dems, do they fall down on any of these?

I would just like to be able to vote for a political party in England that isn't institutionally transphobic, Islamophobic, or anti-Semitic, and yet that appears to be impossible in this benighted in 2026

It is *incredibly* shabby that the Green Party cited "family and personal reasons" for their Makerfield candidate dropping out, given it was actually in relation to sharing antisemitic posts. Had a right-wing party done the same, they'd be getting called out loudly here for it. And rightly so.

I'm in a big, and largely 'the opposite of toxic masculinity' football WhatsApp group - but I'm probably still not going to say that i really don't want England to win the World Cup

Listening to a podcast with the (great) Leon Nayfakh about OnlyFans which he was apparently inspired to do when he discovered his little sister was an OnlyFans creator, which seems awkward

Southampton's Eckert authorised spying, panel says - www.bbc.co.uk/sport/footba... Yeah he's going to go, and soon right? Really puts the miracle performances into perspective

The Times is reporting that when heckled that Labour were useless Reeves said 'part I'd being British is having good manners' they are just incapable of making a case for themselves

The Labour government is more interested in seeing Vladimir Putin survive than British trans people at this point

www.theguardian.com/politics/202... Ok, so if I like immigrants and trans people I haven't got anyone to vote for?

Oh God, three sisters from the same family - how dreadful BBC News - Women who died in sea off Brighton beach named www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

There's a lot of reasons that the FT is great - but this is one of them

look I'm sorry. I know sports teams have silly names and also they make lots of money that it's good to give to good causes. but I just don't feel quite right that Nashville Predators Foundation is supporting a children's hospital

I came close to shedding a tear at @stephenkb.bsky.social's line about marriages being good because we celebrate them together in today's newsletter (an uncharacteristically positive for some reason you can probably work out)

finding it hard to put into words just quite upsetting I find the idea of Google getting rid of the "ten blue links" format of search entirely, genuinely feels like your landlord announcing he's removing your kitchen and replacing it with a bouncy castle, I need my kitchen, let me keep my kitchen

We have had a restricted oil supply for four years now, and successive British governments can do nothing to try and change behaviour or the energy mix, so we end up where we are

I'm less an Arsenal fan than a fan of sportswashing failing, and it feels so good

The noise in Haringey is fantastic to hear

Oh good, another incurable virus - that's just what the world needs

Listening to Gary O'Donoghue's excellent Desert Island Discs earlier & he said that he still basically believed that, as a blind person, that if he were fired that he wouldn't find another job. If that fear underpins such an excellent journalist - what does that say about disabled people in society

I suppose that there are basically no other commodities where the prices are advertised in 20ft high numbers on the side of the road

Someone I know on the best thing about the BBC! Talking about one of the most interesting subjects! At this time of year! In this part of the country!

I wonder what it is about a society which saw wages static for 15 years and then experience serious inflation - which is expected to get worse - that has lead millions not to save for a distant future

I took @joxley.jmoxley.co.uk's fuller version of the quiz and this is where I have netted out

Question: Is it bad to want to read the new Patrick Radden Keefe because it apparently paints an ex-girlfriend's Dad - who ended up upsetting me quite a lot - in a very unflattering light?

To absolutely no one's surprise there I think My result: Progressive Liberal Economic: collectivist Social: progressive Sovereignty: strongly cosmopolitan Military: hawkish Authority: libertarian Constitutional: leaning reformist Take the quiz: quiz.jmoxley.co.uk

If anyone has any concerns that I might be cool the Facebook algorithm just recommended me a page called 'BT telephone exchange enthusiasts'

It remains hilarious that anyone who was in Liz Truss's Cabinet complains about someone else causing borrowing to rise
