Scottish Rugby is immensely saddened to learn of the death earlier today of former Scotland and British & Irish Lions centre, Scott Hastings. He was 61.

As if forcing a by-election to address a party issue wasn't disrespectful enough to the people of Makerfield, now Burnham is speaking like it's already won and saying what he'll do as party leader/PM.

I never want Reform to win, but it would be Labour's fault if they do.

Exclusive: In his first sit-down, in-depth TV interview @AndyBurnhamGM tells me about his plans to “build a new Britain”.

Hopefully this platform can still do some good. My former classmate Kim has been diagnosed with incurable brain cancer. She's fundraising for life-prolonging treatment that would give her more time with her family. Any donations would be so appreciated🙏 https://t.co/gGTcvvQa6w

It's only worth £850,000 if someone is able or willing to pay that for it.

We seem to understand that prices of other assets fluctuate in line with market forces - why not homes?

Look how chuffed my wee Evie is to meet Sione 🤩

Love this club ⚔️🛡💙

[Glasgow Warriors @GlasgowWarriors]

A great afternoon at our @SPEnergyNetwork Open Training Session ✨

Thank you to all the Warrior Nation who came down to Scotstoun! 💙

@rugby_ap I'm a Glasgow fan and thought the officiating was poor throughout - so indecisive! You can feel hard done by here but on the flip side, Bulls were constantly sealing off at the ruck and weren't pinged for it once.

[Adam Shaw @AdamDShaw]

Ooft. Think I aged a decade watching that. Proper arm wrestle. Good as Stafford was, Schickerling robbed for man of the match?

I'm coming up for my 36th birthday. Still never seen Scotland win the Triple Crown. I was born five days after the 1990 grand slam match 😢

Saw this live and genuinely couldn't believe the TMO didn't pick it up...

That’s a long ban hopefully…

Forza Azzurri! It's actually hilarious that so many English pundits were speaking like it was a done deal that France v England last weekend of the championship was going to be the grand slam decider. And now it looks like England will finish in fifth place 🤣

@ChrisSru880101 Probably a shoot out between TJ and Hastings, but I'd like to see Burke given a proper run too against one of Argentina or Fiji. What's the point of the summer tour if you don't properly explore your options?

[Adam Shaw @AdamDShaw]

Pretty cool to see a former Glasgow Warriors head coach take on one of the biggest jobs in world rugby.

Chuffed for Dave Rennie. Once a Warrior, always a Warrior ⚔️⚫️

[All Blacks @AllBlacks]

He returns to Aotearoa!

Introducing your new All Blacks Head Coach, Dave Rennie 👏🏼🇳🇿

Why is increasing cost a reason for removing support from kids with special educational needs and disabilities, but not for scrapping the pensions triple lock?

Grand slam decider in Paris final weekend, was it?

[England Rugby @EnglandRugby]

Defeat at Murrayfield.
