Just putting this out there.
If you are struggling on a state pension, spare a thought for this chap. Incidentally, it does not need to be a nice thought.
England have now won their last 7 Tests at Headingley, a ground ideally-suited to their batting strengths.
Having no men's Ashes Test in the North in 2027 isn't just an affront to cricket-lovers. It also reduces England's chances of winning the Ashes.

I’m worried for Test cricket. Where are the batters who’ll get behind the ball and graft an innings in tough conditions?
when you can earn millions by swinging 32 off 14 on a fairly regular basis, why would anyone even bother trying to forge a great technique?
We’re slowly turning cricket into baseball and I think it’s very sad!
Last decent PM?
Thatcher.
She sold British Gas and British Telecom so privateers could turn national assets into private fortunes while working people got the bills, the closed pits and the dole queues.
She called the miners the enemy within. Three million unemployed was her medicine for inflation. Tax cuts for the top. Power stripped from the bottom.
Forty years on, the same voices still call her the last decent one while the privatised wreckage keeps ticking on every meter and every water bill.
She put capital first. The working class is still clearing the wreckage.
That’s not decent. That’s the long con.
Official figures show the UK government returned more than 80,000 criminals and immigration offenders from July 2024 to July 2026, the highest since 2016.
I thought Labour was in Dover throwing down a red carpet for immigrants.
Immigration down 82%
Small boat crossings down 43%
Deportations at highest level in 10 years
Yet the likes of Lowe, Farage and Yusuf wail to the media we are being invaded and the media amplify the lies
Deportations hit 10-year high as Shabana Mahmood says change 'sends a message' https://t.co/UlIZJ8AXE7
Thatcher sold England’s water in 1989.
Privateers extracted £85bn in dividends, built zero major reservoirs since 1992, and leak 2.87 BILLION litres every day.
Debt from zero to £70bn+. Now hosepipe bans for the public while Thames Water executives collect millions including a fresh £1m payout from emergency funds.
This is not market failure. It is the business model. Water is a national necessity, not a private ATM. Public ownership. Nothing less.
Paul Marshall, the co-owner of GB News, has tripled his hedge fund investments in fossil fuel companies in the first quarter of 2026 to £2.1bn.
They're a propaganda channel cashing in on destroying our future.
Always follow the money.
An offshore company controlled by Roman Abramovich paid £6m to Eden Hazard's agent, and the Club paid £1m that was undisclosed.
According to both the Premier League and the FA, there was no sporting advantage to a career at Chelsea for Hazard (who did not benefit financially from these payments).
Purchase price £32m
Sale price £130m
Appearances 352
Goals 110
Assists 92
During that time
2 x Premier League titles
1 x FA Cup
1 x League Cup
2 x Europa League
There are questions to be answered by @BBCNews Why was one of their reporters on a boat in the Channel with a Tory politician (referred to by his Christian name) on what was clearly a political stunt? I pay my licence fee for news not performative twaddle like this.
Benn. Knew EXACTLY what they were up to. Hence the constant, professional vilification. The MSM have shredded this nation and are presently eating their way through the shreds.
