European 🇪🇺 Swims, never says no to wine with lunch, loves the dog she didn’t want, has too many books on the go, always claps live music, collects names, recipes and dirty jokes.
On Valentines Day this year, women across the UK sent us messages of love, hope and belonging to share with the trans+ community. We post them again now, because we want trans+ people to know that in these difficult times you are seen, valued and never alone. 💗 #WithTheT
This is the sort of framing I’d expect from the Telegraph. My husband and two sons have ADHD. Medication helped my eldest go from being predicted to fail his GCSEs to passing all of them; it literally changed the course of his life. Social construct my arse. Shame on you Channel 4.
As the saying goes “A lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is still putting on its boots”.
Excellent, as usual, from Marina Hyde. Imagine the next host countries not participating in their own tournament. Of course, Trump’s extended family would be behind this grubby, shameless and self defeating scheme. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
A World Cup with no participants – it could be Gianni Infantino’s boldest move yet | Marina Hyde
You’ve got to admire the Fifa president’s chutzpah in trying to flog off football’s greatest prize. If only Uefa wasn’t being so pesky about it all, says Marina Hyde

I really hope M&S is deliberately trying to wind all the right people up
And we’re not going to get anything done during the next heatwave
HUGE surprise that Palantir’s tool hasn’t improved hospital discharge rates. Their business model isn’t about delivering a service - its only objective is wrapping its tentacles so comprehensively around our systems that they become the permanent gatekeeper to all our problems. Andy - get on it!
Day 8 in the Big Brother house and Andrew is reflecting on his life choices
Darren Grimes proving yet again there’s no depth he won’t sink to. He manages to brush past the horrific attack on Berlin’s Pride march, twist it into an anti-Muslim talking point, then somehow cast himself and his allies as the victims, all while continuing to punch down at the LGBTQ+ community.
I’ve been growing this blueberry bush for about 3 years. This is my first and only harvest. I’m buggered when the apocalypse comes aren’t I?
All that World Cup half time show needed was a giant Tunnock’s Teacake
Nigel’s miffed because his rival has a title and he knows he’s never going to get one #manofthepeople
In May we said Nigel Farage probably didn't owe tax on his £5m gift. The Guardian now reports the gift followed talks where Farage said he'd need £5m to return to frontline politics. *If* that's right, we think there's a high risk of a £3m tax bill - payable by Reform.
One woman is killed every three days in the U.K. I’d love to see the conversation about protection shifted there.
A bold banner choice for those clocking back in for work in England next week
If I look out of my lounge window, I can count no less than 4 flags. American friends….where is this coming from and why? Some sort of canary in the coal mine warning? Are they making up this nonsense about other countries or just the U.K.?
