Together with Stephen Fry, Colin McFarlane, David Cameron, Steve McQueen, Jeremy Clarkson and Nick Jones, I’ve written to the Health Secretary about prostate cancer.

Prostate cancer is now the most common cancer among men in Britain. It kills one man every 45 minutes, many after a diagnosis too late for treatment to succeed. Black men face a 1 in 4 lifetime risk, double that of the general population, and men whose fathers or brothers have had the disease face a similar threat.

In May the National Screening Committee refused to extend screening beyond a group of just 1,500 men with one specific genetic variant. Everyone else at high risk doesn't have guaranteed access to a test that could save their life. We believe that's wrong, and that the Secretary of State has both the evidence and the power to overturn the ruling.

More than 250 MPs from across the political spectrum have called for a targeted national screening programme, and over 100,000 people have signed petition demanding the same. A programme targeted at those at highest risk would cost £25 million a year, which is 0.01% of the NHS budget.

We are asking the Secretary of State to reconsider the Committee's recommendation and commit to a targeted national screening programme; to act now, rather than wait a decade for further trial data while men continue to die; and to ensure that risk, not luck, decides who is tested.

Yes yes, of course the hospitality lobby says the tourist tax will hammer tourism.

Of course they've come up with huge, scary numbers (which we can't verify).

But the thing is, they're right. The tax *will* reduce tourism. The question is: how much?

So we tried to find out:

@paullewismoney Wouldn’t have qualified for the residence allowance at this stage if house passed to wife. They would have been able to offset standard nil rate band only against gifts to children. The residence allowance will be unused and transferable to wife’s estate when the time comes

@D_WarEagle @jonhare73 I know you are a fan!

@krishk @BBCNews @grok is this true

@jonhare73 Utd haven’t looked a serious team for over 10 years and still all these ex pro pundits love to have a go and spend more time talking about Utd than anyone else.

@StretfordPaddck He doesn’t

[Kobi @UTDKobi]

teams and players breaking their trophy curse:

- Newcastle ended a 56 years trophy drought
- Bologna ended a 51-year wait for a major trophy
- Harry Kane finally won a trophy
- Crystal Palace about a win the FA Cup

We face Tottenham in the Europa League final. I’m nervous.

By making his 279th #mufc appearance today, Bruno Fernandes will have played more times for the club than Luke Shaw (unless he comes on). Shaw made his United debut in September 2014. Fernandes made his debut in February 2020.

If we swap him for 20 year old Garnacho it's like swapping Margot Robbie for Kat Slater

A chancellor who has never run a business and reports to a prime minister who has never run a business and is advised by civil servants who have never run a business - is about to advise business owners how to run a business.

If any #probate practitioner have an application for a grant that’s taken longer than 20 weeks to issue then they can email #HMCTS on [email protected] and @HMCTSgovuk will arrange a surgery appointment for you to discuss the actions needed to issue the grant.

@jonhare73 Knew you’d be on here expressing your displeasure! Problem is we’ve got good players but a championship manager.

@TimGWatson …but he’s “world class” …

[Statman Dave @StatmanDave]

Rasmus Hojlund has scored 22% of his shots in the Premier League this season scoring 8 goals from 36 shots, a conversion rate better than:

K. Havertz (20%)
N. Jackson (19%)
O. Watkins (18%)
M. Salah (19%)
P. Foden (17%)
B. Saka (16%)

For reference, Haaland has scored 23% of his shots in the Premier League this season.

Man Utd are failing Rasmus Hojlund. 😡😡😡

[Justin Wallace @foolfighter76]

@jonhare73 Worst case scenario is he stays (and why wouldn’t he for the £350k) and Southgate comes in…
