What sort of lunatic puts everything straight into the machine? Not a sensible way to live www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...

You be the judge: should my boyfriend get rid of his laundry basket?

Anita thinks dirty clothes can go straight in the machine. Jayden believes the laundry hamper serves a purpose. Who’s the basket case? You decide

Honestly one of the worst things I've ever read www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

I have been criticised for being part of the Riyadh comedy festival. This is why I did it | Omid Djalili

I can see why internally Liverpool are talking like that, we would be doing the same! But it's probably not for public consumption.

Worst thing about The Athletic is how it churns out the clubs internal talking points as journalism.

Thought he was a bit wobbly in his first season (that Luton game 💀) but he's actually a very good keeper. Does all the basic stuff extremely well.

Pay increases for Raya and Trossard make sense when the base level salaries for young players like Nwaneri and Lewis-Skelly increase dramatically with their new deals.

You have to properly acknowledge the contributions of senior players who produce a consistent basis.
