Aggers recalling playing with Bob Massie's balls is the highlight of the @bbctms summer so far >

[Test Match Special @bbctms]

Aggers' favourite Lord's memory was the great Bob Massie taking 16 wickets in 1972 - and he later got to meet one of his heroes ❤️

This is my @BBCNews InDepth piece on Englishness which contains the background to my interview with Kemi Badenoch in which she told me that conflict over identity politics in the UK could lead to a potential civil war in the long term.

NB: my interview with the Conservative leader for the Radio 4 documentary, England’s Identity Crisis, was conducted last month and so is not in response to the events of this week

If the BBC hadn't been starved of funds over the past decade it might have the budget to show the CWG and not be having to make a further £500m cuts 🤷

[Nigel Huddleston MP @HuddlestonNigel]

Sad that despite record breaking, multi-platform viewing figures for the 2022 Birmingham Games, the BBC will not be showing any coverage of this year's Commonwealth Games in Glasgow.
This is a further deterioration in sports coverage from our national broadcaster who also lost the boat race rights this year.
The BBCs charter is currently under review and it is vital that the BBC delivers a wide range of quality content in order to justify the licence fee.
The BBC traditionally does coverage of national events exceptionally well - it did a great job in Birmingham - so this will be sad news to many sports fans.
But I hope that between TNT and Channel 5 we will all be able to see quality coverage and experience the Commonwealth Games in some way this year, albeit not on the BBC after a 76 year relationship.

Trump shows off its massive scale by comparing it to some of America's most iconic skyscrapers — the Freedom Tower, the Empire State Building, and the Sears Tower.

I'm a huge fan of Dolly Parton. We're the same age and height, but she can sing better.

Shame on Missouri Republicans for slashing funding to Dolly's Imagination Library, which provides free books to over 170,000 children every month.

They must reverse these cuts immediately.

CNN’s data guru revealed that more Americans believe the moon landing was faked than think it’s acceptable to name federal buildings after Trump.

🚗 Bank holiday travellers are being warned to prepare for heavy congestion this weekend as millions hit the roads for getaways — despite rising fuel prices.

The RAC predicts 19 million leisure trips by car between Friday and Monday, up one million on last year. Friday and Saturday are expected to be the busiest days, with major delays likely on the M1, M5, M6 and M25.
