This guy is now effectively doing MBS propaganda for free, making out that what what needs to change in Saudi Arabia is the general culture, rather than the specific ruling regime. Once again, petrodollars buy us a fascinating case study in motivated reasoning.

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

The headlines focus on money, but the gigs were great and I think there are different ways to achieve progress. Art, especially comedy, can be part of that, says stand-up comedian, Omid Djalili.

It's #bookshopday today, the annual celebration of all things to do with high street book shops. If you're planning on buying any of these in the run-up to Christmas, then your local high street book shop is the place to head to.

Must've been a tactic.

Rope-A-Dope, let Greece batter them all over, score three goals.

Scotland are WINNING.

Greece should quit being a country and let Turkey take over. They're done as a country.

VAR did not save Greece.

If they lose to this Scotland side now they should quit the game.

Scotland have unfathomably equalised.

Greece should be ashamed.

Does Steve Clark know voodoo or something?
