@RobboITV @gavin20324409 @Ian_M1 Methinks you've gone too far Robbo. The first one ought to be enough

[Allister Webb @arwebbln]

@JamieFin_ He should be out now. Gould and Thompson too

Good to talk to @BBCRadioScot this morning on this

[BBC Radio Scotland @BBCRadioScot]

The UK Government's unveiled plans for the first major reform of the rules regulating the veterinary sector in more than half a century. It follows recent reports which suggested vet fees are rising almost twice as fast as inflation.

@clarkey1980new @curtiswoodhous8 Not at all. I'm well aware of what he said and I'm not arguing for or against the court verdict in the Jones case. All I'm saying is the defendants' pleas in the two cases is a key difference between them and should be remembered

[Allister Webb @arwebbln]

An understated end to an understatedly magnificent career. Probably never as big a name as Des Lynam but absolutely as good. Go well Steve

Rider Retires!

This Sunday, the legendary Steve Rider will present his final show before he retires following a stellar 45 years working for ITV and BBC.

Steve began his career as a reporter at LBC before moving to Anglia Television. As he progressed through the ranks he went on to work on the Olympic Games, World Of Sport and BBC's Grandstand to name a few. He returned to ITV in 2005 and presented our Formula One coverage, the 2006 Football World Cup, the Champions League and the Rugby World Cup in 2011.

More recently, the 75-year-old has been anchoring the British Touring Car Championship on ITV4. We wish Steve all the best in the future and thank him for all his dedication and hard work in a TV career spanning over 50 years on screen.

One of the most moving and powerful pieces of television I've seen in a very,very long time

[Mike Grenham @mgrenham]

If you're not watching the 'Unforgotten: Bradford City Fire' live, I urge you to do so on catch-up.

Incredibly poignant, so deeply sad.

[Allister Webb @arwebbln]

I very much doubt it is permanent

[Ailbhe Rea @PronouncedAlva]

A thought amid talk of a breakdown in the traditional two-party dominance: does everyone remember the 2019 European elections?

The Brexit Party was the biggest party in the country, Lib Dems second. It snapped back months later. The question is whether this time its permanent.

[Allister Webb @arwebbln]

Outstanding performance

[Grimsby Town F.C. @officialgtfc]

MASSIVE.

An #AvianInfluenza Prevention Zone will be introduced across England & Scotland from noon 25 Jan 2025. It will be a legal requirement for all bird keepers in England & Scotland to follow strict biosecurity measures in addition to any Protection/Surveillance Zone restrictions.

[APHA @APHAgovuk]

Avian Influenza has been confirmed near Kirriemuir, Angus. If you fall within the 3km Protection or 10km Surveillance Zones, please ensure you’ve registered your birds & your details are up-to-date so we can tell you about bird flu risks. See: https://t.co/tBIxXpD47L for info.

Huge congrats to Dr Neah Evans MRCVS and her teammate Elinor Barker for their Sterling Silver performance in the madison this evening! #Paris2024 https://t.co/AugkUrgbbp

[Allister Webb @arwebbln]

Can't put it better than this. A star in a difficult era for English cricket who always seemed to get the tough runs. Far too soon to see a childhood hero pass

[Allister Webb @arwebbln]

Hopefully he will now start to get the respect he deserves for the immense job he's done. Sadly, I doubt he will

[Sky Sports Football @SkyFootball]

BREAKING: Gareth Southgate will step down as England manager following defeat in the Euro 2024 final 🚨

[Allister Webb @arwebbln]

An extraordinary moment. Not just a very strong contender to be England's greatest ever cricketer but surely one of our greatest in any sport. Farewell @jimmy9 and thank you

[Sky Sports Cricket @SkyCricket]

For the final time James Anderson walks out at Lord's 🥺

A guard of honour from both sets of players 👏

[Allister Webb @arwebbln]

Enormous admiration for @markchapman. Deepest of sympathy for @HuntyCaller and his family

[Adventure Art @Adventure_Art1]

Thinking of John Hunt and family. Nice mention from Mark Chapman before the match here

[Allister Webb @arwebbln]

It may not be the extinction event that some of the polls suggested. But a former Prime Minister, less than two years ago, losing her seat is the perfect demonstration of just how monumental the Conservative battering has been. They have got what their record in office deserves

@curtiswoodhous8 Looks like a smart and capable young man, Curtis. Sadly can't get to Beverley but hope to be back ringside before too long

URGENT! Pls share. The last chance to register to vote in the General Election is 11.59pm tomorrow Tue 18 June. Potentially 8m aren't registered at their current address. Here's 4 key facts...

1) You can do it online here https://t.co/i4FhJoAXfK
2) It's good for your finances. Not being on electoral roll can make it more difficult to be accepted for credit products like bank accounts or mortgages.
3) You can opt out of the 'Open Register' (which allows your info to be sold on) which will stop you getting junk mail marketing )
4) You'll need ID when you do vote (not to register) if you don't have it, you can get it free until Wed 26 June https://t.co/9bfL3hw3CV

@curtiswoodhous8 How a judge has scored that to Fury I will never know. Usyk won that by four or five rounds for me
