Somehow made it onto @RichLeighPR's 101 hacks to follow on Twitter this year. Must be big fan of #MUFC and swearing. http://t.co/MQX0Hk1X16

EXC by @HarriLine - Rachel Reeves has broken the law by renting out her family home without a licence since entering Downing Street. Chancellor has tonight referred herself to the independent ethics adviser and fessed up to the PM

EXC: The ‘dangerous’ loner who tried to kidnap Princess Anne at gunpoint in 1974, only for her to tell him ‘not bloody likely’, is back on the streets, still obsessed with the case and trying to prove it was all a ‘hoax’ https://t.co/w4RLHFTK1j

What a performance. What a player! 👏

Luke Littler lifts the iconic Phil Taylor Trophy for the first time in his young career!

[Ben Rossington @benrossington]

Nice of Luke Littler to keep going five-nil down to make things a bit interesting. Tested this week but some brilliant darts to get himself out of trouble. Good to see Wade back in a final too @OfficialPDC @LukeTheNuke180 #lovethedarts @SkySportsDarts

The superinjunction has now been lifted after a legal battle spearheaded by The Times. The two-year fight was kickstarted by David Williams and Sam Greenhill @s_greenhill at the Daily Mail and it has been quite the journey with the indefatigable @Holly_JoyB and Global Media's @lewis_goodall

[Pippa Crerar @PippaCrerar]

Jaw-dropping reports from @larisamlbrown @s_greenhill @Holly_JoyB and @lewis_goodall on the MoD data breach which put thousands of lives at risk and was kept secret for almost two years by unprecedented super-injunction gagging the British press.

[Ben Rossington @benrossington]

Biggest peacetime evacuation plan in British history has seen scores of unmarked charter jets land at Stansted with rescued Afghans ready to start a new life here after being imperiled by MoD data leak. 24,000 soldiers & families have been offered asylum

BREAKING: A British military data leak put up to 100,000 Afghans at risk of death from the Taliban. A government super-injunction in place for two years until now has kept it - and moves to bring many of them here - secret. Extraordinary story.

@sturgios The nuclear daiquiri from a probably-now-shut Clapham Common venue. Given the specifications, I was shocked to be served one, never mind two…

The extraordinary life of Denis Law https://t.co/uQ4awAh5iv

[Andy Mitten @AndyMitten]

Denis Law, RIP.
Just spoke to Brian Kidd.
"He was slight, with the heart of a lion. An unbelievable finisher, he scored every type of goal. He said to me: 'If you're ever wide, don’t look up, put the cross in early. If I’m not there it’s my fault'. He was usually there. Sir Matt loved him. We all did. He was the King of the Stretford End."

[Ben Rossington @benrossington]

RIP the Lawman, Denis Law. One of the first big names I interviewed. Asked him how long it took to get over the back heel that ‘relegated United’.
He said ‘what year is it?’
Was 2002.
Said ‘ask me again in 20 years’

Luke Littler is 17….
