I do enjoy a bandwagon #bluesky

[David @iamdavidwebb]

Weird that they're all in the 2nd half of the year, a legacy maybe of youth football being split into calendar year cohorts and the better players are generally the oldest in their cohorts?

Fun fact: If all 1,248 births were evenly distributed, each day would have 3.4 birthdays. Despite this, there are actually 8 days that have no birthdays:

🇯🇵🇰🇷 2002 but obviously biased. Watching Robbie Keane's last minute goal vs Germany in the school assembly hall is a core memory

What has been your favourite World Cup in your lifetime?

[David @iamdavidwebb]

France v Norway final
England only get out of the group as a best 3rd place
Australia & Japan make the quarters
Golden boot winner German

[Carl Anka @Ankaman616]

World Cup 2026 starts on 11 June.

So let's do another Bad Predictions Amnesty.

Tell me your BOLDEST prediction for the World Cup. xVibes, rather than researched analysis.

We stick them in the vault, then have a look over the results towards the end of the tournament.

But you don't even need a clubcard? Just ask the person next to you at the till to scan theirs. They get the points and you get the discount, win win

[Anon Opin. @anon_opin]

Tesco's insistence on ripping off non-Clubcard holders with excessive prices is such a terrible business practice. All it does is stop anyone who isn't a regular Tesco user from popping for a few bits when they're passing. Their greed is - ironically - costing them so much money.

The AI Fiona Bruce was on point

[BBC Question Time @bbcquestiontime]

Tonight Question Time features an imagined AI panel made up of historical figures who shaped the modern world

Watch the #bbcqt AI special now on @BBCiPlayer and @BBCNews to see what our REAL panel have to say on AI, including how it can blur the lines between reality and fakery

STV would be cool for the UK but it takes 2 days in Northern Ireland to count 90 seats and 4 days in the Republic to count ~160. God knows how long it would take for Westminster

*hypothetical* seat projection based on current polling applied to a Single Transferable Vote system

Reform lead by ~40 seats

Brighton v Manchester United is on Sky Sports Tennis.

A chance for me to repeat an absurd TV line, that 12,000 viewers watched the funeral of Queen Elizabeth on Sky Sports F1.

Someone in the pub last night called me Andy Burnham 😭

I hate every ape I see, from chimpan-A to chimpanzee

Once again obsessed with the 'click here if you're Andy Burnham' button.

[Patrick Maguire @patrickkmaguire]

Catherine West now on Radio 4 saying Keir Starmer could win a leadership election and not ruling out voting for him

[David @iamdavidwebb]

Im sorry but the one member of the Labour Party more unpopular than Starmer being the main leadership challenger is incredibly funny

[Politics UK @PolitlcsUK]

🚨 NEW: Labour members voting intention:

Starmer vs Streeting:
Starmer: 53%
Streeting: 23%

Starmer vs Burnham:
Burnham: 61%
Starmer: 28%

Starmer vs Miliband:
Miliband: 46%
Starmer: 39%

Starmer vs Rayner:
Rayner: 45%
Starmer: 41%

Burnham wins this seat easily. He would have won Gorton&Denton easily.

[Nassreddin 🍉 نصر الدين @Nassreddin2002]

So... this is the seat where Burnham may run

Next to Gorton and Denton

The Greens will try to take him down, especially as they got twice as many votes in Manchester Rusholme in 2024

[David @iamdavidwebb]

Was too young for Portillo but proud to say I stayed up for Truss

[Merlin 🇪🇺 @Merlinchon]

What was the biggest 'Portillo Moment'?

[NewsWire @NewsWire_US]

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer tells Parliament he is a 'gooner'

[David @iamdavidwebb]

The banter era is back. Just need Theresa May showing up at 10 Downing Street in a ball gown now.

[Adam Cailler @acailler]

If you're not watching Sky News, put it on. Absolute shitshow. Robert Peston falling over, Beth Rigby flying across the screen to scream at MPs.

Sophy Ridge ducking like someone's yeeted a grenade at her.

And then this happened...

[David @iamdavidwebb]

Ok but when Streeting gets turfed out before the next election and a new Labour leader leads them into electoral oblivion, there could be 12 living Prime Ministers at the 2029 Rememberance Sunday service

[Charlie Watts @char1iewatts]

Ok but I think this line is long enough already…
