An old clip of Dennis Waterman singing the best song ever written live on RTE's Late Late Show has emerged on social media recently...enjoy!

@wesstreeting After 14 years of Tory government you throw in the towel with a 3 year old’s tantrum - thanks for that Wes. 🙄

[Graham Whiteley @allnightly]

This from 2020 - even more evident in 2026.

[Mohamad Safa @mhdksafa]

The poor and middle-class are paying taxes, the rich are paying accountants, and the wealthy are paying politicians. That’s the circle.

The President of the United States stood at a rally in Pennsylvania this week and called a sitting member of Congress "despicable" by name. He called the country she came from as a child refugee "filthy, dirty, disgusting." He told the crowd we should "get those people the hell out of our country."

Those people. Read it again. Those people.

Here is the quote, in full, on tape, from the rally at Mount Airy Casino Resort.

"Somalia, it's a beautiful place. It's got no anything. It's got one thing that's really strong, crime. All they do is run around shooting each other. It's filthy dirty, disgusting dirty. It's a horrible place. They come here, and Ilhan Omar, she heads it. She married her brother. I would imagine they're looking at her. Isn't she despicable? We ought to get those people the hell out of our country."

Now let me walk you through what is true and what is not.

To mark the 100th anniversary of Winnie-the-Pooh, The Queen has gifted the New York Public Library a new Roo.

Made by Merrythought, the new Roo travelled from Buckingham Palace to New York aboard Their Majesties’ flight!

Bruce Springsteen is currently playing to a #NoKings crowd of over 200,000 people in Saint Paul Minnesota right now!

Trump is using government to hurt people who disagree. That is what kings do to scare others. We will not be scared. We will not be silent.

[Graham Whiteley @allnightly]

They shouldn’t get away with this. Let’s make sure they don’t!

I'm normally not a fan of multi artist charity records but no matter how you carve it up this is rather bloody fantastic.

1964: A Weekend In Leeds
In 1964 we were treated to a glimpse of Leeds nightlife through the eyes of a visiting ad man. How did the modern teenager dress to impress and what impact did the nightclubs have on their surrounding areas?

[Graham Whiteley @allnightly]

Hey @X this ad leads to a fake version of the BBC website with personalities used to flog a crypto scam. Click on the bbc menu and it leads to the dodgy app site.
Reported posts and the ad but not convinced you’re that bothered about it? Over to you…

[History Girl @HistoryGirlBW]

The flowers of Remembrance. Hour after hour an unceasing pilgrimage of bereaved mothers, wives, daughters, and sweethearts lay floral offerings on the Cenotaph. Armistice Day, 1920.

[Stig Abell @StigAbell]

The First World War miraculously produced all sorts of high culture. But every year on this day it is worth watching the ending of the greatest sitcom, which somehow managed to catch the tone of remembrance exactly, perfectly right.

[Graham Whiteley @allnightly]

Yup! T’was ever thus.

[Michael Rosen 💙💙🎓🎓 NICE 爷爷 @MichaelRosenYes]

Protest songs in the 60s were so much sweeter and nicer. ('Masters of War' - Bob Dylan)

One hell of a thread… 😳😲

Bruce Springsteen just opened his European tour in Manchester with a powerful message about how things are going back home

[Prof. Carl Sagan @ProfCarlSagan]

In his last interview back in 1996, Carl Sagan warned what could happen if we stop questioning those in power with science and curiosity. Watching it now—was he right all along?
