@LUFCDATA Surely we now have the tech to move from 2x45 total mins to 2x30 in-play mins. Average in-play time incl added time is ~ 56-59 mins so we'd get more football and less incentive to time waste.

@writebikerepeat @LeTourFemmes Great piece, thanks

@charlie_pearce It's a good honest name - you're certain to win the prize.

[Nick Gretton @ngretton]

Thank you @lemnsissay @TerryGalloway and others for your leadership and for seeing how the world could be.

There's quite a lot going on with Care Experienced folk this year so I thought I would have a go at a few words.

@krishk @UKLabour Little change sadly
#GeneralElection24

[Nick Gretton @ngretton]

As a northerner, I enjoy the longest day whilst mumbling that the nights will soon be drawing in.
But it's also #ShowYourStripes day which is more worrying - this graphic from @ed_hawkins shows the choices we still have.
(And no, the medieval period average was not so warm.)

@JolyonMaugham Thank you Jolyon

A powerful argument from @krishk
#WorldRefugeeDay

[Dr Krish Kandiah OBE @krishk]

It's time for a humanitarian approach to our borders.
We can't help everyone, but we can play our part in supporting refugees.

Enjoyed talking with @SkyNews today about migration.

@RestPoliticsUS @Scaramucci @KattyKay_ Why is it called the World Series? Does Anthony know what a goalhanger is? Can Katty play the bagpipes?

[Nick Gretton @ngretton]

@krishk Looking forward to this. I assume it's 2pm BST not GMT.

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

Like the meteor that wiped out the dinosaurs, humanity is having an outsized impact on our planet.

In the case of the climate crisis, we are not the dinosaurs. We are the meteor.

We are not only in danger. We are the danger.

But we're also the solution. https://t.co/Olj12WVSMW

@krishk Means we sadly now have three parties led by a shameless hypocrite #GeneralElection24

@cluedont Love these slow threads. Anticipation already building for the killer punchline in 2034.
