🥺🏆 Mikel Arteta: “It’s one of the best feelings I’ve ever had. I couldn’t watch City game. I could hear noises from inside, then my son opened the door, ran towards me…

…he was crying and he said ‘we are champions daddy!”.

Still feeling like this 🥰

Hannah Spencer asked at PMQs whether MPs should drink before voting on the climate crisis, disabled rights, housing and child poverty. Westminster's bars cost taxpayers £7.4 million a year and sell pints at £5.45 - nearly £2 cheaper than the pub opposite - while losing £56,000 annually despite paying no rent.

The chamber's response to Spencer raising this was "get a life". 76% of Britons say it's unacceptable. 52% say it's completely unacceptable.

Who do you agree with?

[Joe Lever @JoeLever89]

If there were a clip to highlight the disfunctionality of parliament it’s a working class woman proposing MPs shouldn’t be allowed to drink subsidised booze on the job followed by said MPs jeering her and the PM completely avoiding the question.

Clear the lot out.

[The Green Party @TheGreenParty]

We are in stuck in an affordability crisis with people struggling to pay for food and heating. But MPs think it's funny to drink at a discount on the taxpayer and vote on crucial issues. It's wrong.

The map of Reform Councils in the UK. So much for 'WE'VE TAKEN OVER THE NATION !!!"

[Jack Dart @JackWDart]

Reform UK were rejected by more than 70% of voters yesterday, and the media is treating the result as terminal for Labour while almost entirely ignoring the fact that most people said no to the hatred, the division and the bigotry. That is the actual story.

Deafening applause as Zack Polanski tells Zia Yusuf that people's concern over immigration is because he spends all his time spreading misinformation and fear.

BBC PAID HIM 6X MORE. THE TRIBUNAL SAID THAT WAS ILLEGAL. THE BBC SAID IT WAS COMPLICATED.

Samira Ahmed @SamiraAhmedUK presented Newswatch on @BBC for years. Same format. Same length. Same job. Read viewer feedback on camera, wrap it up, go home.

Jeremy Vine @theJeremyVine did exactly the same thing on Points of View.

She got £440 per episode. He got £3,000.

Ahmed spent years trying to fix it quietly through internal BBC processes. The BBC said there was no problem.

She filed for tribunal. In January 2020, the tribunal ruled unanimously in her favour. The BBC could not explain the difference. They tried. They argued Vine needed "a glint in the eye" and to be "cheeky."

The tribunal said that was not a skill. It was a story the BBC told itself.

The total underpayment was close to £700,000. Sarah Montague, another BBC woman, settled separately for around £400,000.

The National Union of Journalists flagged around 70 more cases waiting resolution internally. After Ahmed won, 700 BBC women received pay rises.

The BBC's statement after losing? They regretted it had gone to tribunal.

Not that they paid a woman six times less than a man for the same work for years. Just that it became public.

🚨🎙️ | Wayne Rooney BLASTS the VAR decision Arsenal’s overturned penalty vs Atletico Madrid:

“Look, I’ll be honest with you, I’m sitting here in the studio scratching my head. For me, that’s a penalty all day long. I don’t care how many angles you show me on that VAR monitor, there’s contact there, and it’s enough to put Eberechi Eze off his stride when he’s about to pull the trigger.

The referee gives it on the pitch straight away, so he’s seen enough in real time and he’s in a good position. Then VAR gets involved, calls him over to the screen, and suddenly they’re trying to find reasons not to give it. Once a referee goes to that monitor, there’s always pressure to overturn it. But why? It’s not a clear and obvious error. It’s a foul.

Eze gets there first, nicks the ball, and he’s been caught. We’ve seen those given plenty of times in this game. If that’s Ademola Lookman going down at the other end, or if it happens in favour of one of the big sides, we’re not even having this conversation. It’s a stonewall penalty and everyone moves on. If it happens at the other end, we’d all be screaming for it.

That was Arsenal’s golden opportunity. They’ve worked their socks off tonight, played some cracking football, and earned that chance to win the match from the spot. To have it taken away by someone sat in a booth miles away is gutting for them.

Sometimes VAR tries to be too clever. It’s there to fix obvious mistakes, not re-referee every little bit of contact and second guess decisions. Tonight they’ve got it massively wrong.

You can talk about marginal contact all you want, but at the end of the day, Eberechi Eze has been fouled in the box. Arsenal have been robbed tonight, simple as that. It’s a shambles really.”

[Harry Eccles @Heccles94]

Hannah rocks up to Westminster and suggests that perhaps MPs shouldn’t be pissed at work, and the establishment goes into meltdown.

Nice work Hannah 💚

[Humongous Ape MP @apesahoy]

There are nineteen restaurants and nine bars in parliament, all serving subsidised alcohol. This is what happens when a person who has actually worked sees how MPs actually 'work'.

[Claire @claireXanda]

Wow , this is probably the first time I have ever seen a British day time doing the bare minimum and tell the truth about what Meghan has had to put up with . @AlisonHammond I appreciated your comment, it needed to be said .

🚨 NEW: A former chief economist at Goldman Sachs as eviscerated Brexit and the ‘colossal economic shock’ it has had on the UK 👇

“Brexit is causing more permanent damage than this energy price shock is likely to do.”

Tesco could pay every worker an extra £10,000 and still make a profit.

British Gas could pay every worker an extra £35,000 and still make a profit.

Shell could pay every worker an extra £300,000 and still make a profit.

It is the billionaires who are ripping you off.

[Farrukh @implausibleblog]

£0 debt
£0 dividends
Water companies before privatisation

£60 billion debt
£85 billion dividends
Water companies after privatisation

The British public has been robbed - and our waters polluted to an extreme - and STILL Labour are refusing to renationalise water, disgraceful

[Brendan May @bmay]

Nigel Farage says Reform never promised to cut taxes so here is a series of clips of him definitely not promising to cut taxes.

[Supertanskiii @supertanskiii]

The Greens took it!

Hannah Spencer, a working class woman, overcame the bullshit of both the billionaire owned press and billionaire funded racism of Reform. Against all odds, she won on a message of common sense, unity and decency. This is truly historic and very well deserved.
