My partner watching world sevens for the first time just said “it’s like the last week of term where they just let you do anything”

Ungovernable Birmingham is coming true
- Labour and Reform rule out any coalitions
- Tories won't work with Greens, nobody wants to work with Independents
- Leaving Green/LD as the best option, and they only have 31 seats between them
- Government intervention feels inevitable

[Mia Fleetwood-Walker @PopeHelmet]

Real Birmingham moment that this house is now in a green ward

[Dr Chris Burden 🐺 @WulfrunianChris]

Birmingham heard you saying ‘become ungovernable’ and took that literally.

So, you can suspend a player for violating a code of conduct separately from what might happen with the police and the courts. I was told that this was impossible and that managers and teams have no choice but to continue fielding and championing the player.

[Sarah @SarahMiddlemiss]

If the results in Brum are even remotely close to this @Moreincommon_ polling, it'll be a seismic result:
- Reform only 4 seats short of overall control
- Independents win more seats than mainstream parties
- Neither Labour or Tories will be the largest party for the first time

Just your average Premier League game.

Charity Commission has confirmed that the law does not force organisations like Girl Guides to exclude trans people from single-sex spaces or facilities.
Its CEO, David Holdworth, urged charities to exercise caution and not rush any changes to their inclusivity policies.

This will probably only affect about one or two children. Just utter cruelty for the sole reason of appeasing the worst people in the world.

chappell roan could play midfield next to kanté but jorginho couldn't do good luck babe.

He's cancelling Christmas. For the first time, a politician is *actually* trying to cancel Christmas. #womp #womp

[CountingDeadWomen @CountDeadWomen]

Today during the International Women’s Day parliamentary debate @jessphillips will read the names of women killed since IWD 2025 where the suspect is male.
We sent her the ‘final’ version of the list last night. This morning, we’ve had to add 2 women.
There is never a final list

[The Lobster @LikeableLobster]

There may have been a few miscalculations on The Lobster’s part.

I just can’t believe that the inaugural owner of the FIFA Peace Prize would do something like this

[Róisín Lanigan @rosielanners]

amazing to think we likely won't see another simultaneous lent, chinese new year, ramadan and disgraced member of the british royal family being arrested in our lifetime

[Jade Azim @JadeFrancesAzim]

The anti multiculturalists must be losing their minds at the pancake day/lent/Chinese new year/ramadan fusion supermarket displays today. I love it.

[Adam Crafton @AdamCrafton_]

A real insight here into how football sees casual homophobia. And the way Benfica - and Mourinho - have chosen partisanship over accountability, solidarity and empathy tonight is a stain.
