I went for a run at the weekend…

[Prof Colin Talbot (rerum cognoscere causas) @colinrtalbot]

Angela Rayner - £40k underpaid stamp duty - repaid. Lost jobs in Cabinet and Dep. PM.

Peter Murrell - £400k theft from SNP - going to prison

Huge coverage of both

Nigel Farage - £5m undeclared bung (possibly more) - goes to ground for a month.

Media coverage? You judge.

Was this the most exciting thing that happened in Highbury this weekend? #YourWeekendRuns

[The Daily Britain @dailybritainonx]

63% of Britons say they would now vote to rejoin the EU. Brexit has cost an estimated 6-8% of GDP. Net migration - one of the primary Brexit arguments - hit 944,000 in 2023 before falling to 171,000 under Labour, its lowest since 2012.

The government is already moving toward EU regulatory alignment.

A Question Time audience member: "We're papering over the cracks."

Should Britain rejoin the EU?

🚨 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: Metropolitan Police confirms that Arsenal's parade is the biggest ever parade held in the country.

Over 1.5 million people estimated.

[Rob Deering @DeeringRob]

Exciting day round our way, for sure.

[Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan @MayorofLondon]

Islington was painted red today, as generations of fans lined the streets to celebrate Arsenal men’s team winning the Premier League for the first time in 22 years, and the women’s team clinching the FIFA Women’s Champions Cup 🏆

Surprise return to lovely @highburyparkrun this morning; hot out there, but nice that the course stays under leafy trees throughout. Thank you marshals, well done fellow parkrunners and -walkers.

[Rob Deering @DeeringRob]

On the fells earlier this week. Hot.

He’s behind me, isn’t he.

[Parkinson's UK @ParkinsonsUK]

We’re so pleased that the Parkinson’s UK - A Garden for Every Parkinson’s Journey has won the People’s Choice Award at the #RHSChelsea Flower Show.

Wonderful picnic with @DeeringJulia at the @BarbicanCentre yesterday before seeing High Society - also wonderful - featuring my dear old friend* @helen_george. A sparkly, romantic evening all round.

(*I met her once.)

I think that 35 hours work a week should not only pay the rent and put food on the table, but leave you enough over for the odd night out and an annual holiday. And if that belief makes me an economically illiterate leftwing extremist, so be it.

[Rob Deering @DeeringRob]

By the way, my results are in: I came in 39th - there were 64 finishers. I was the 30th male, the 4th of those over 50. The distance was 28.5 miles, which I did in
6.08.38. (The winner did it in 4.33!)

@OfficialHuey @VirginRadioUK Wow. Ok. Fun chat.

[Rob Deering @DeeringRob]

First and second questions answered this week on @RunComPod - if you subscribe to the Fan Feed!* I wore my Nike Terra Kiger 8s, which were great, but not new, so… probably.

@DeeringRob @RunComPod And did you beat the tide?
What was your musical selection?
Did you use your C2C shoes?

[Rob Deering @DeeringRob]

@MartinSLewis Some guys in a pub didn’t believe I knew all the words to American Pie, so I strapped my guitar on and stood there in the otherwise VERY quiet pub and sang it to them. They bought me a pint of cider each.

Forgive me for sounding like a broken record, but we are not a Christian nation. We are a nation where you are free to be a Christian.

Your religion guides you, not all of us. It’s as simple as that.

[Led By Donkeys @ByDonkeys]

Immigration makes Britain brilliant.

[Rob Deering @DeeringRob]

I did it, by the way… It went well. Full report tomorrow.
