@Eurostar @EurostarUK our 16:31 train from London-Paris has been cancelled, but there's no option to try and rebook when managing the booking online, and your phone lines just play an automated message - please can you respond to my DM?

Actually, its only a Portillo Moment if it comes from the Portilleux region in France otherwise its just sparkling seat loss

Did all we could, but not to be on a wild final day 🤯

Congratulations, @SaleSharksRugby on a fantastic result 😅

@PicturesFoIder @artypc94 pretty sure this was you last Sunday

If I was worried about people comparing me to 1930s Germany, my next move probably wouldn't be to shut down all criticism on the national broadcasting service

Going to war with Match of the Day and David Attenborough in one afternoon strikes me as a strange electoral tactic but there we are

To my generation, the voice of rugby. As beloved for his wit and his warmth as his ability to call a play. He will be so dearly, dearly missed.

I'm going to be attempting to run the Big Half in two weeks' time for @MindCharity - if you have a few pennies to spare (or fancy sharing this round) then I'd really appreciate the support for a great cause!

People keep telling me that because the UK had a heatwave in 1976, climate change is overhyped.

So here’s the global heat anomaly maps from June 1976 and June 2022. https://t.co/GGVg46UTcI

To whomever it may concern: after the Farah story, please don’t start saying ‘think how many other future heroes we might be deporting to Rwanda’. This policy isn’t disgusting because they may be exceptional people. It’s disgusting because they’re people.

Funny, but also a little alarming how this 28 year old clip of 'The Day Today' still remains ahead of the curve.

She is absolutely right because her grammar is not “incorrect”. Her speech contains non-Standard constructions, and these are no less “proper English” than the PM’s dialect or mine. It’s an immense benefit to public life that she stands her ground n this.

[Jo Grady @DrJoGrady]

The ‘uncomfortable truth’ is social mobility has always been a myth, peddled by various parties to justify keeping structures that advantage privileged groups in place. Working class kids don’t get the luxury of being mediocre yet successful, those from privileged backgrounds do.

What about our morale? You know, on the acute medical ward for 4 months over winter? With over 125 patients (70 is the ward capacity)? All of whom were very sick or dying with covid? Whilst grieving the loss of my grandad from covid? I’d say my morale was pretty fucking low too

[Channel 4 Press @C4Press]

@NadineDorries Clarification: A proposal was made, in response to a request from DCMS, showing how C4 could potentially raise a small amount of outside capital. C4 is in excellent financial health & does not want or need to raise outside capital to fund its future plans.
