Gary Lineker on winning the National TV Award,

"It's not lost on me why I might have won this award"

"Aside from presenting Match of the Day.."

"Also, I think it demonstrates that perhaps it's ok sometimes to use our platform to speak up on behalf of those who have no voice"

We have all become addicted to drama, scandal & hyperbole. Some of us are trying to wean ourselves off it & focus on stuff like this. But it can sometimes feel like being a vegetarian at a barbecue.
At the risk of sounding like a government spokesperson, I wonder if we're too gloomy. NHS waiting times are falling, as are net migration numbers. Growth hasn't been fast, but it's improved. Real wages are growing. Inflation is a bit sticky, but much reduced.

A word on immigration. Don't prejudge this, just listen to the data, and then consider what the solution is.

The UK has a falling birth rate. This means that - unless things change - each generation will be 25% smaller than the one before.

Dolly Parton currently sends a new book to 2.2 million children every month. The number has steadily increased for years. It's in honor of her parents, who were illiterate. She works with hospitals. Many people have told us they had no idea the books would come. They are addressed to the child.
Dolly Parton has sent my daughter a new book every month for years as she does for thousands of children. She help fund the development of the Covid vaccine. She’s not a billionaire. I think as non wealthy people it’s hard to even imagine how much billionaires *could* be doing with their money.

Our privatised water system is broken - but water companies are doing everything they can to keep the Ponzi scheme staggering on.

A solution exists. Your MP needs to hear about it: actionnetwork.org/letters/ask-...

Amidst the driest Spring in 69 years, the National Drought Group says many water companies’ plan for drought is « simply praying for rain. »

Selling off reservoirs, failing to invest, polluting our water – these acts undermine our national water security.

It's time for public ownership.

I think the club that most embodies English football in 2025 is... Norwich City.

That might sound weird, so I went to Carrow Road to try to convince you that I'm right

In July we rescued Rusty from a short chain under a shack in the jungle in Thailand.

We found him a home in England.

Today he saw snow for the first time in his life and it was just brilliant… (1/5)

I still look at the age of this squad and some of the signings in awe in what they’re doing and how fast they’re developing. Give these guys another 12 months we’ve got the beginnings of a special side #ncfc

Having made such an impression on #NCFC fans, it sometimes feels like JHT won’t need the same patience from them as his players. But it’s important to remember that he’s still developing at this early stage of his career as a head coach. My column👇
