Though this food is appreciated, our food banks are also in need of some more unexpected, but essential items.

Here's six unexpected things you can donate to your local food bank ⤵️

Congratulations @pljamin25 on a great ride on Nellie Leylax at Haydock. Popped out and led all the way - great judge of pace.

[Mark Fletcher @FletchMPF]

@pljamin25 Congratulations on your 100th winner! Great achievement. Let’s hope for many more this season including our Nellie Laylax!!

🎶 The UK music industry is dying.

We are calling for a negotiated and reciprocated visa waiver agreement and a review of the restrictions on how many days an artist and support workers can work in the EU in 180 days.

Signed and shared. We’re needlessly throwing away one of the key UK strengths.

@MOV1936 Saw #MerchantofVenice1936 last night at @YorkTheatre. Magnificent production, with a great performance by @TracyAnnO and a wonderful cast. Very moving ending. Superb.

@pljamin25 congratulations on riding out your claim. #topjock

[Mark Fletcher @FletchMPF]

That’s our Nellie!! I was sure we were beaten when the eventual third came alongside but Nellie fought hard and @pljamin25 gave him a great ride to go again.

Nellie Leylax puts in a gutsy performance to win the Sky Bet Sunday Series Nursery Handicap!

@pljamin25 Well done and thank you for a great front running ride on Nellie Leylax. Congratulations on your double as well!

I was out with family celebrating my youngest’s birthday yesterday but one thing I was looking forward to was Andrew Rawnsley’s take on the latest and hopefully last Johnson farce. It doesn’t disappoint.

What a great gig tonight @Nath_Brudenell. @dutchuncles on brilliant form. New album #TrueEntertainment is a cracker. Wonderful night, thanks all.

Literally unbelievable that he considers a leaving do at No10 more essential than funerals for the little people.

[Mark Fletcher @FletchMPF]

@IanDunt It would be so good if he stood up, ripped his mic off and stormed out. At times he seems quite close to it. No concept of what ordinary people were doing, in far more trying circumstances, in observing rules and guidance that he himself laid out.

[Mark Fletcher @FletchMPF]

@IanDunt Thankfully he claimed in HoC that guidance as well as rules were observed. He is surely therefore bang to rights.

[Simon 🇪🇺 @thisisasimon]

@IanDunt He's going to lose his cool at some point.
I can't wait.

[Mark Fletcher @FletchMPF]

Watching our esteemed former PM being questioned by Privileges Committee (for live coverage follow @IanDunt). Can’t banish from my mind the words of his former teacher about his entitlement and genuine surprise when rules are applied to him as well as everyone else.

I'm sorry to say we won't be able to hold the Metropolitan Police Commissioner to account tonight for the Casey Report's findings of institutional racism, misogyny and homophobia because his press office have again excluded #C4News

I’ve just added my name to support the Trussell Trust to help families do more than just survive this summer. With soaring energy prices and sky-high inflation, this isn't a cost of living crisis - it's the cost of surviving. Please show your support at https://t.co/3WSVTDeGrB

Andrew Rawnsley sums up perfectly (as ever) the dilemma Sunak faces and the sheer hypocrisy of the DUP/ERG stance Rishi Sunak must not flinch from a vital fight with the Tory Brextremists | Andrew Rawnsley | The Guardian https://t.co/yMeRuFneRK
