@PTdavidlowndes2 Did you remember your camera! As someone once said: “Go easy on the film and don’t shoot an epic!”

And Trump receives the first Fifa peace prize at World Cup draw. What a shock …

@peterboroughtel So this is a news story is it? I think the phrase ‘Advertisement’ is missing.

Great to have seen England win so convincingly tonight. Cricket!!!

[David Rowell @newsviewer]

@johnelworthy @Conservatives @lornadupre @CambsPboroCA It would be interesting to see what the odds for no one cares who wins would be. Sad,but suspect it is true.

[David Rowell @newsviewer]

@johnelworthy Enjoy your retirement. I can thoroughly recommend it.

I don’t think JD Vance meant to be dismissive of British and French military support in Iraq and Afghanistan. He just didn’t pause before opening his mouth. The people round Trump think they’re the masters of the universe at the moment. I don’t imagine it’ll last.

This ICC cricket tournament is a farce. Pakistan is the host nation, but the final is in Dubai to suit India! Throughout other teams have shuttled between countries while India have been in the same hotel, experiencing the same conditions playing on the same pitches. Bonkers.

@Jgibbins Mmm

@TobyWoody You are quite right. But only a handful of people are willing to stand up for election. Is the answer to have one all-powerful Mayor in place that can be held accountable?

@sjbirkett Blimey … and I have a problem colouring by numbers.

[David Rowell @newsviewer]

@Jgibbins @NeilMPickford There would be a lot of red cards!

[David Rowell @newsviewer]

@Jgibbins @NeilMPickford Now, now boys … calm down. Having been on both sides at one time or another I think a Kettering draw against the mighty Posh might put you both back in your boxes!

@Sootyandco Where’s Harry Corbett

@toryboypierce @British_Airways Don’t forget there will be a further delay when you get there and have to queue at border control to get your passport stamped thanks to Brexit!

@VintiquesMark Bring it on

[David Rowell @newsviewer]

@christopherhope @GBNEWS Probably because you are irrelevant

[David Rowell @newsviewer]

@TobyWoody Only three candles. Or was that just a small portion of cake?

@BumbleCricket Sadly the BBC commentary is dire. They should hire @BumbleCricket
