It brings me no end of delight that Europe only need 2.5 points from today’s session to put this to bed.
Americans have been classless and obnoxious (shock, I know).
Loved seeing McIlroy, Rose, Lowery and Tommy giving it them back … Seve would be proud

Keegan Bradley defends US Ryder Cup fans as just ‘passionate’ amid chaos
Keegan Bradley defends US Ryder Cup fans as just ‘passionate’ amid chaos
* Captain rejects suggestions his team stoked up trouble * ‘I don’t appreciate those words that you just said’ Keegan Bradley refused to condemn American Ryder Cup fans after the grim scenes that formed a backdrop to day two at Bethpage Black. Bradley went so far as to curiously suggest spectators had been “violent” during the Ryder Cup in Rome two years ago. Bradley’s approach was in stark contrast to that of his European counterpart, Luke Donald, who believes some those in the galleries engaged in unacceptable conduct. Europe lead their hosts 11½-4½ heading into the final day. Just as striking on Saturday, though, was a series of unacceptable shouts towards European players. These were personal – especially in the direction of Rory McIlroy – and regularly delivered as golfers were preparing to play. McIlroy and Shane Lowry completed a fourball victory with state troopers lining holes. Continue reading...

It's another defeat for Manchester United & Ruben Amorim.

A superb win for Brentford, and a big three points for Keith Andrews' side.

Hiroshima Museum is one of the most emotionally powerful places I have visited. I experienced despair, anger, sadness, and hope.

To vindictive how impactful of a place it is, this protest was not only fitting, but it was in the perfect location.

A reminder of the world’s ills…

This is what our country is coming too … I’m appalled and embarrassed. @eddavey.libdems.org.uk deserves immense credit for trying to unite in the centre to stop this domestic terrorism.
I hope the other party leaders put partisan politics aside to tackle the biggest threat in modern western society

I've written to Keir Starmer, Kemi Badenoch and Nigel Farage, urging them to join me in condemning Elon Musk's dangerous remarks inciting violence yesterday.

As leaders, we must stand together and make clear Musk will face serious consequences for these actions.

It would be fantastic if someone, I don’t know, say the head coach, gave him the ability to improve by giving him minutes in the Premier League.

So happy that I finally was able to get rid of my Tesla. A real world consequence of Elon’s disgusting behaviour … about £10.5K.
Appreciate that I am fortunate enough to have been able to do something about it … others aren’t so lucky.

Nintendo has officially unveiled the Nintendo Switch 2 and it looks exactly as we thought it would thanks to the leaks which have been buzzing around the web these last few weeks. Nintendo has yet to announce a release date, instead saying that it's due out later this year. The company used the next Mario Kart game to showcase the console.
