My latest on the new South African government's foreign policy on Zimbabwe.

[Daily Maverick @dailymaverick]

Whereas the ANC has shown little interest in a responsible foreign policy on Zimbabwe, the DA takes a serious approach, seeing Zanu-PF as a threat to South Africa’s interests. Indeed, over the years, the DA’s leaders have been consistent in their ... https://t.co/2pS3pzokHV

Declan Rice is England’s vice captain for the World Cup 🌍

[Jon Sopel @jonsopel]

It was terrible Mr Vice President what happened. And lessons will be learned. But here’s a thought - maybe concentrate instead on why 44000 Americans died last year from gun related deaths, and what can be done about your dreadful disease before you start lecturing others

[Alzheimer's Society @alzheimerssoc]

Veteran news anchor Jon Snow has shared that he’s living with dementia, speaking publicly for the first time to raise awareness of a condition affecting around 1 million people across the UK.

Jon and his wife, neurologist Dr Precious Lunga, are supporting Alzheimer’s Society @alzheimerssoc and shared the story of Jon’s diagnosis in @DailyMail as part of our Defeating Dementia campaign with the newspaper.

https://t.co/Sy08OWXmms

We’ve partnered with Jon, in association with @Channel4, on a powerful new documentary airing on 20 June. Jon Snow: A Last Big Story looks at how he’s navigating life with dementia, and how, when we all come together, we can change the story.

Thank you to Jon and Precious for their courage and openness to bring much-needed attention to dementia 💙

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

Today, I signed an Executive Order temporarily repealing bedtimes in the City of New York so that kids of all ages can watch our team in the NBA Finals.

As Mayor, you’re forced to make many difficult decisions. This was not one of them.

Go Knicks.

[Arsenal Gist @GistArsena99455]

Wayne Rooney on other teams congratulating Arsenal on their title:

“Arsenal were crowned Premier League champions and deserved credit for what they achieved this season. But I cannot help feeling that some clubs in England could not find it in themselves to offer a simple word of congratulations.

In football, respect costs nothing. When a team ends a 22-year wait and wins the title with quality and character, the least their rivals can do is acknowledge it. The silence from certain clubs speaks louder than any post ever could.

I am proud of what Mikel Arteta has built. The players showed resilience, belief and the kind of determination that wins leagues. That deserves recognition, not ignorance.

Congratulations to Arsenal on winning the Premier League. But I believe English football loses something when basic respect between clubs disappears.

To the Arsenal supporters: you waited 22 years. Nobody can take that from you. Enjoy every moment of it.”

🚨NEW: The Premier League have confirmed Farai Hallam as the referee for Arsenal’s final league game against Crystal Palace on Sunday.

The 33-year-old will officiate an Arsenal match for the very first time, having only taken charge of four Premier League games in his career so far.

The league’s more experienced referees were assigned to key relegation battles, with Arsenal’s title already secured ahead of the final day.

[Piers Morgan @piersmorgan]

Ridiculous… @_DeclanRice should have won this.
Absolute travesty that someone whose team never once competed for the Title wins over a guy whose brilliance all season led us to the Title.
