What utter garbage.

Not a single mention all day in this insane PR of the culture and heritage of English or Lancashire cricket.

This is not the IPL.

Strength shaped by vision.
Power guided by purpose.
The @ManchesterSG100 identity marks a legacy in the making.

Same here, priority member but saying coming soon when tickets should be on sale

[Carl taggart @Taggart4291]

@Edgbaston Trying to buy tickets with this membership just saying can’t purchase ? @Edgbaston

We are now on our second consultation to manage this. Just ban them and stop fiddling with regulatory tweaks.

[Aaron Bastani @AaronBastani]

Honestly? Ban them.

It’s a very quick visual upgrade for central London.

[David Algonquin @surplustakes]

If you want an indicator of current UK establishment complacency, Stephen Bush (political columnist of the FT) says he is not attending the annual conference of Reform - i.e. the party in first place in the opinion polls - because he has been too "lazy" to sort his accommodation

[Matt Brown @_MattBrown]

Guess he's also passionate about making £££ playing in the Hundred.

[Matt @mattdsport]

@willis_macp Wonder if he still so keen to big up the sustainability credentials of Surrey

[Duncan Robinson @duncanrobinson]

Just one more civil servant to drive change across government, I swear

[Matt Brown @_MattBrown]

Greatest city on earth update.

[Madeline Grant @Madz_Grant]

Just saw a masked guy on a bike nick a young woman’s phone at the bus stop. She is now sobbing - day ruined and fears they can access her bank details. Earlier on I saw several aspiring architects jumping barriers at London Bridge and no one did anything. City feels v fucked atm!

[François Valentin @Valen10Francois]

There's something profoundly soul-crushing about seeing derelict London houses that were once built for families being sub-divided into 11 different properties for childless young professionals in their 30s to spend up to half of their income on

[Matt Brown @_MattBrown]

Penny for Fraser Nelson's thoughts on this one....

[S. C. @sdotcdot_]

The story the Beeb have chosen to lead with is reporting on themselves sacking the lesser known Masterchef host, as opposed to the literally unprecedented use by government of a super-injunction to gag press from reporting on incompetent mistakes that cost billions of pounds

[Steve Delaney 🇬🇧 @Wokewaster]

How can we live in a country where almost everyone in Britain wants this to stop but it never stops? How can that be?

[Matt Brown @_MattBrown]

This.

[Rupert Lowe MP @RupertLowe10]

Lives weren't 'lost' on 7/7, they were murdered.

@Saskiateague Read more about the reality of Bordesley Green, one of Birmingham's most "diverse" and dangerous areas: https://t.co/3LsyWurFQo

[Paul Embery @PaulEmbery]

We are living in a radically different society to the one most of up grew up in - one in which gangs of thieves operate in broad daylight and while on camera, yet knowing that most onlookers won't intervene, and the justice system will never apprehend them

[Stephen Daisley @JournoStephen]

As the BBC decides not to commission another series from her, Nadiya Hussain says: ‘It’s really difficult as a Muslim woman, I work in an industry that doesn’t always support people like me.’

Me in the @spectator on celebrity entitlement and victimhood.

Bakerloo line too.

And it wasn’t like this even three years ago.

[Chris Rose @ArchRose90]

“Greggs says it will be removing all cold sandwiches and bottled drinks from its self-serve fridges and putting them behind the counter, in an effort to curb shoplifting.”

Britain is descending into an uncivilised, low-trust society. Tragic.

As an alumnus of @sheffielduni I strongly oppose this. Rewarding contributions "within a religious community" on issues affecting "a particular community" cements sectarianism and social divide.

Uni is about breaking down barriers, not putting them up.

[Matt Brown @_MattBrown]

Very much looking forward to the nationwide conversation about this show and it being shown in every school in the country.

[Charlie Peters @CDP1882]

Keir Starmer rejected an interview request for this film, which adds to the testimony of how abuse gangs are still operating and getting worse.

Starmer wouldn’t appear in it, but did he watch it?

Will he urge the nation to watch it like he did with Netflix drama Adolescence?

[Matt Brown @_MattBrown]

Yup. I too look forward to seeing the arrests based on social media posts inciting violence that will of course follow.
