Whilst it is the bowler’s fault that they overstep if the umpires were doing their job and calling them each time they wouldn’t bowl as many. #SAvENG #cricket #basics

Thought for today since taking office the Johnson administration has suffered 12 defeats in Parliament. That figure equates to roughly 7% of all defeats suffered by all UK governments since the 1945 general election. #strongandstable #teamtory #BrexitShambles #brexit

Good point. Can anyone help? I know we struggle for enough decent net balls at times.

Brexit spill-over: straight after the Brexit decision, conservative mayors terminated their town’s relationship with German cities. One of them said: I just have learned a few German words anyway but „Auf Wiedersehen“ is fully enough.

I do give the followers of Leeds a lot of stick. But Leeds Utd are that rare thing: the gift that keeps on giving. So happy 100th birthday to all those who have frequented Elland Road over the years, and may your team keep me entertained for years to come.
