A few years back my mother-in-law was ill in hospital. Whilst visiting here I noticed these flags pinned to the wall and wondered why they were there.

Of course they're the flags of the nationalities of the NHS staff that looked after my mother-in-law's ward, without whom we'd not have an NHS.

James McMurdock took a bank salary while claiming COVID loans. Now, Nigel Farage wants him to resign immediately so the scandal can be forgotten about as quickly as possible.

2. How do Everton fare?

@ronnygoodlass.bsky.social hi Ronny. Incredible day yesterday. The player you were talking to when walking out onto the pitch yesterday- was that Moggsy? Didn’t recognise him but then he’s been incommunicado for 50 years! Bet he’s still hard as nails!

This is magnificent.
It’s so moving to hear Reidy’s regular reference to the importance of our fans.

Dear President Zelensky,

As it is likely that our paths will never cross in person, I could not let this day go by without trying to reach you here.

I come to you humbly as an American citizen who is thoroughly and completely embarrassed of our leaders.
