@ScotRugbyBlog Please can there be loads of Welsh players.

Hear me out...

How funny would it be if Wales only decent players were playing against the Brumbies and Reds whilst Wales got gubbed in Japan.

Do apprenticeship dropout rates next and how apprentices still have no right to a minimum wage. It’s all part of the same story.

[Ben Kinross @beardySLO]

In a crowded field of *interesting* ref calls against Scotland this season 2 yellows aren't a real red. Wales play the end of the game with 15.

➡️BSW und FDP unter 5 %
➡️DIE LINKE über 8 %
🍀🍀🍀

Exclusive: The DfE's official account of a meeting between @bphillipsonMP and @Miss_Snuffy claims the ed sec had to ask the head to 'lower her tone' and 'allow her to finish her sentences'

What has Sadiq Khan ever done for us? Apart from freezing TfL fares for five years, expanding bus routes, introducing the Hopper fare, tackling air pollution with ULEZ, delivering record council homebuilding, supporting free school meals… alright, but apart from that?

[Tier 2 Rugby @T2Rugby]

We can conclude from this Care has astonishingly bad general rugby knowledge for someone trying to make it as a pundit.

Anyone got an example of a worse analysis from a pundit this year than this?

English spelling is a cruel joke

Why does ‘gh’ stay silent in “daughter” but sound like an ‘f’ in “laughter”?

The thing is, English spelling is actually 100% logical — for the Middle Ages

Here’s how the 'gh' sound disappeared from English, and left chaos in its wake…🧵
