Oh yes, the male footballers tended to go out first or second round. A lioness showed them how to do it yet again.
Karen Carney is the first footballer to win Strictly Come Dancing, and it could not have gone to a better person. Her journey on this show was an inspiring one for all those with spinal problems, and she has shown that you really can do it if you put your mind to it. #Strictly

I do love how of all the #strictly winners, Kaz knows exactly how to hold a trophy steady while being bounced on the shoulders of a team of professional athletes.

What a wonderful series that was, really joyful. Well done Karen and Carlos. I’m so pleased a lioness won, although all the finalists were brilliant. Will miss Claudia and Tess, their replacements have big shoes to fill. #strictly

"By excluding history, the review treats interference as a forward-looking regulatory problem rather than a systemic national security breach. What a proper, diligent inquiry should have done is to look at both."

Why Is the Government Really Refusing to Investigate Russian Interference in Brexit?
Keir Starmer's decision to exclude Russian interference in the 2016 EU referendum from his inquiry into foreign interference in our elections should ring alarm bells, argues Sergei Cristo

So, #r4today reports on the Covid inquiry and the “too little, too late” Tory govt, then says they’ll be talking to *Lord* Gove about it. Ugh.
That just sums up so much that’s so very wrong with our politics and media.
Rewarding, rather than punishing, those responsible for failing us all.

Re #TheArchers. Totally agree on all points. Name, shambles (but no birth/wedding/funeral runs smoothly in a soap opera), and the crushing disappointment in the Labour government.
Given that it’s a soap opera and we have had a freaking Peggy for decades couldnt we for the love of g had a new name. also the whole shambles was entirely avoidable if anyone had two brain cells. I’m as disappointed with this as with the Lab govt. ( actually govt wins on disappointment )

So Tim Davie has resigned from the BBC over a failure to be impartial in relation to Trump.
Once.
The BBC has failed to be impartial about trans people since Davie's tenure started.
Systematically and regularly.
So why did he not resign over these?
