Congratulations to Nathan Gill’s successor as Reform Leader in Wales. Bizarre to pick someone who has spent the last 27 years living in London and abandoned his role as a councillor a few weeks ago. Bit of a kick in the teeth for overlooked local Reform representatives.

BBC Sport is talking about Cortina 1956 a lot

👍🏼
Toni Sailer of Austria takes gold in the men’s downhill to become the first alpine ski racer to win three gold medals, at a single Olympics

A feat only repeated once since

In 1956 there were only three men’s events

With no respect

“Nigel is democratically elected

You’re a lady with a Twitter following”

I remember Reform being very clear on by elections too

Trump play book

The electorate are there to be played

Fuck you
Nigel Farage once vehemently believed that defections should trigger by-elections…

I challenged Reform’s Andrea Jenkyns on his now opposite stance

And this was the state of her response…

Why’s everyone so excitable over Helen of Troy tonight? 🤷‍♀️

We did this in 1956
If minded to brave the icy conditions

Maybe a trip to the cinema?

So much - excuse my language

Shit reporting of facts on YouTube (and wiki)

I have to use material with BIG disclaimers

If you’re going to post footage - and I am glad you do

Get your f’ing facts right

It takes but five minutes of intelligent button pressing to get to the truth

Good morning 1956

In the early hours, Norwegian MV Dovrefjell runs aground on the Pentland Skerries, Orkney Islands, Scotland

Wick and Longhope lifeboats attend but with waves breaking heavily over the ship & solid spray reaching a height of 100 ft the lifeboats are unable to lie alongside her
