@MeTheWifeWxm Great result after a not so good first half. Made even better with Reading beating Wycombe too. Goal difference reduced and 6 point clear. #UpTheTown
Very sad news indeed; "The Few" are all gone as John "Paddy" Hemingway, the last surviving pilot of the Battle of Britain dies aged 105.
"He never felt that he was anything special. He thought the special ones were friends who never returned. He is back with his squadron"
As the final days of the election are upon us, I wanted to share with you all the 5 key pillars of my manifesto that I feel makes me the strongest candidate for the role of President of the IOC.
These have been developed not only from my views and passions, but also from all the many conversations I have been having with members to get their input and ideas also.
My manifesto is all about the Olympic and Paralympic Games being the greatest STAGE on earth, and in that theme - has 5 core pillars.
→ Sport First: Prioritise excellence, protect women’s sports, anti-doping, fairness
→ Tomorrow’s Generation: Inspiring youth, sustainability commitments, embracing technology
→ Athletes at the Heart: Welfare, commercial recognition, governance involvement, experience
→ Growth: New revenue models, smart partnerships, our brand equity
→ Empowerment: Of all IOC members, athletes, NOC’s, IF’s and partners
Starting today, and over the next 2 days I will share with you my thoughts on each one and why I think they are vital for the future of our movement. Firstly I want to share my experience as an athlete in the Movement and why it shapes my manifesto today.
Training on the treadmill and the road. That’s 14 miles of my weekly 40 in the rear view mirror. I may not run quite as fast as I used to, but any race takes preparation, resilience, and the right mindset - physically and mentally.
Leadership is no different. With three weeks to go to election day, I am ready, focused, and prepared to take on this challenge—to unite, inspire, and lead the Olympic Movement into a new era.

20% increase in PT since the 50c fare is a great outcome. Hopefully with @CrossRiverRail it will improve more. Existing PT routes to have higher frequencies/ QLD's 50c public transport fares hit six-month mark, with patronage up nearly 20pc https://t.co/mrShYbLlfe
