@GaryLineker At what point do we start worrying about Kane’s performance?

Brilliant stuff from @nassercricket

[Sky Sports Cricket @SkyCricket]

"We've all been looking away for too long."

@nassercricket opens up on his experiences of racism, the impact of the killing of George Floyd and why people should be proud to wear #BlackLivesMatter badges.

[Gary Lineker @GaryLineker]

Congratulations to @ChelseaFC on winning the Europa League. Superb 2nd half performance and a brilliant display from @hazardeden10 ....possibly his last for the club. Boy, they’ll miss him if he goes.

Unpopular opinion (I know). But VAR has added to the excitement at #WorldCup18. Incorrect decisions corrected, not disrupted the flow and rhythm of the game, cheating (i.e diving) been flagged and not rewarded....why so much opposition to #VAR??

[Faruk @thefarukpatel]

I think Harry Kane will swear on his daughter’s life that he also got a ‘touch’ to that goal #EngvPan #ComeOnEngland

[Gary Lineker @GaryLineker]

Harry Kane is the first player to score 2 or more goals in consecutive World Cup games since....Romelu Lukaku, yesterday. Prior to that it was Diego Maradona in 1986. You wait 32 years and then.....

@amy__charlotte Glad I’m not the only one staying up! 😂 #WandsworthLabourGain

[Simon Hogg @CllrSimonHogg]

The choice...

Wandsworth Labour:
✅ Same low Council Tax
✅ Genuinely affordable homes
✅ Improve air quality
✅ Fight against school cuts

Wandsworth Tories:
❌ 84% of homes built last year were unaffordable
❌ 2,500 children homeless
❌ £7m in schools cuts

Young people have helped lead all our great movements. How inspiring to see it again in so many smart, fearless students standing up for their right to be safe; marching and organizing to remake the world as it should be. We've been waiting for you. And we've got your backs.

Like many in #battersea one of my favourite things about the area is #batterseapark. This decision by @wandbc is incredible. It is consistently prioritising privatisation of our green spaces when free and easy access to parks is vital for well-being esp children #killjoycouncil
