Taking the Harvest Festival service at Bride Methodist this afternoon at 4.30.

What a fourth-quarter performance 🔥 Bo Nix x #DENvsPHI

I appear to have fallen into a dystopian dimension

After watching my wife’s beloved Tigers come back from 0-19 at Welford Road against Harlequins to win 29-19, now watching Sarries absolutely rip the Bears to pieces. A little glass of Balvenie Doublewood. Hang on, Bears have scored a worldie.

The Met proving it’s not fit for purpose. Again.

This could get nasty.

Bath 28 Sale Sharks 16. No complaints. We had chances, muffed them. Stupid yellow card at the end but overall, not bad from the Sharks. Kudos to all the players for an entertaining game in shocking conditions

What a game. What a finish. Congratulations Worcestershire Rapids, Metro Bank One Day Cup cricket champions.

Also. And I'll keep repeating this one til the Oswald Mosleyites moan. Modern Britain's foundation myth is that we stood alone against fascism and defeated fascism. So every single one of those fascists on that fascist march is the very antithesis of patriotic.

“Flags is it?” 🤌 www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-n...

The man, who did not give his name, identified himself as a former criminal from Kent who has spent 26 years in prison. “Keir Starmer needs to be assassinated,” he said. “Someone needs to shoot Keir Starmer.”

In which the richest man in the world tries to incite turmoil, fear and loathing in my city from the safety of his fortified home thousands of miles away. The pathetic little coward. Also why are these patriots being directed by an American? Can't they organise their own fist fight?

My thoughts are with yet another group of children and their families, traumatised by yet another school shooting this afternoon, in Evergreen, CO. abcnews.go.com/US/shooting-...

If you sow the seeds of hate, do not be surprised if you reap its harvest.

Taking the service at Ballagarey Methodist this morning at 11.00.

Stupid is as stupid says

What a performance Tommy. Immense. Fabulous.

Bastions of democracy and free speech no doubt.

30 minute wait for luggage at Heathrow T5 (and still waiting) isn’t impressive @britishairwayteam.bsky.social

That part. (… and the 2000 other verses that talk about caring for the poor and having compassion on the vulnerable)

War crime

Completely deranged.

All it takes for evil to thrive is for good men & women to remain silent. #SolidarityWithPalestine #StopTheGenocide #GivePeaceAChance

I like to deal in facts, Facts that can be verified from good sources & as well as from first hand experience ,As I have worked closely with asylum seekers here, In Scotland. Please share & help dispel the rumours spread by the gullible masses. fullfact.org/immigration/...

Third-hottest July on record worsens droughts, floods and fires

To starve a child is a crime against humanity. We call for: Adequate food & aid supplies for Gaza now. A permanent ceasefire now. All hostages & captives held by Hamas to be released now. Any policy which amounts to the ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian population from Gaza to be renounced now.

This is completely deranged. Seriously.

Blast. Wish they’d done this the night I was there.

A regular reminder that in my country, they’ve had the vote for nearly two decades.

Time and time again, the Prime Minister says the situation in Gaza is intolerable… but he keeps on tolerating it. Palestinian statehood was literally in his own manifesto, so why won’t he recognise it now? I wonder if Donald Trump is stopping him.

So is England’s behaviour,

The umpiring on the Test match is unacceptable

Chapel this morning then taking the service at Ballakilpheric Methodist Church this afternoon at 3pm.

A fellowship of 352 churches worldwide, the WCC called on “states, churches, and international institutions to impose consequences for violations of international law, including targeted sanctions, divestment, and arms embargoes.”

Watching last night’s Leigh v Wigan match; riddled with errors. Is this really a top level Super League game?

The "we both care about family" line has to be one of the funniest things Starmer has ever said.

Coming under attack from Kemi Badenoch is the equivalent of being hit by a feather.

Mountains of Mourne from Port Erin.

Nigel Farage and his Reform MPs just voted to let foreign governments buy up our British newspapers. I guess it’s hardly a surprise since these fake patriots outsource all their policies to Trump’s White House and Putin’s Kremlin.

I may have imbibed.

England thrashed by India in the Women’s T20. It wasn’t a contest. Abject performance by England.

Whatever one’s politics, the US system is hugely flawed. I cannot believe the constitution was set up to allow a dictatorship. The Supreme Court seems to believe otherwise.

Best way not to have to abandon your cruel, evil plans is not to have cruel, evil plans in the first place. I seem to remember having to give this advice to a number of Tory MPs in the last few years.

⚡️Update: Death toll in Russian June 24 attack on Dnipro rises to at least 21, more than 300 injured. Dnipropetrovsk Oblast Governor Serhii Lysak reported on June 27 that the death toll in Dnipro rose to 21. Earlier, the governor said that more than 300 people were injured in the attack.

The so-called U-turn by Labour is even worse and more unfair than the original. Hard luck if you become ill or disabled in the future. A bad policy made worse.

Photographs of a leopard snapped by camera traps in forests in Bangladesh's Chittagong Hill Tracts have raised hopes among conservationists working to save the critically endangered species.

Nope. Sorry, as much as I would love to visit my friends in the US, I ain’t going until sanity returns.

Good grief. What sort of dystopian state is this?
