Charles is the patron of the RNLI. Can he do one useful thing in his life and actually stand up for a charity he's meant to support? I'm sure Lifeboat crews would be delighted to see him if he got off his arse and visited some stations.

Why, given what the 'R' in RNLI stands for, have NOT ONE senior member of the Mountbatten-Windsor family stuck their head above the parapet and condemned this behaviour? Perhaps they agree with it? Maybe it should be the Royal Patriot Platform instead?

Brilliant to see 2 young Scots performing so well at La Vuelta.

"I don't think Nigel has broken the law. He wants to be Prime Minister! He's not going to do that..." Reform UK supporters share their unwavering support for Nigel Farage with 'thick reporter' Lewis Goodall. Is Farage really "better" than every other UK politician?

⏰NEW REPORT⏰ published today on how the push to 'reindustrialise the north' with net zero (as Burnham puts it) is going in practice. We did a deep dive on how towns at the forefront of new net zero industries - Aberdeen and Grimsby - are faring. The answer is not as well as hoped.

Second wind • Resolution Foundation

Net zero is touted as a way to regenerate local economies and cushion industrial decline, as well as delivering cheap energy. Aberdeen and Grimsby show that it cannot do all three in every place that ...

The only 'Strait' that I want Trump's name asociated with, is the straitjacket he's wearing when they drag his sorry arse out of Das Weißehaus. Hopefully very soon.

‘Israel have the right to defend themselves’ in bed with war criminals and genocidal zionist bastards. Resigned his seat and now off to add to his fortune made from his many ‘donations’ .. Abhorrent individual worthy of nothing but contempt.

Oh marvellous, Sir Keith is going to bring his particular set of skills to 'international affairs'. Given how utterly pathetic he was as PM, it'll be interesting to see if he suddenly grows a backbone in his chosen new role. My guess - absolutely no fkn chance.

That's an exceptionally good move for Ambrose, probably more than his abilities merit. Understandably there's no mention of a fee being involved.

4-4-2? 4-1-3-2? Fuck knows, but let's hope that it works. The balance looks all wrong, and in particular the centre of the midfield looks pretty lightweight to me.

Cycling is a dangerous sport at the best of times, but for a rider to be hit by a vehicle that has entered the course is horrific.

✍️ Is the player trading model working? "The risk is that Aberdeen trade the reputation they have worked so hard to build as a club that provides players with a pathway to the next stage of their careers for one in which promising young talent sees its development stall."

Are Aberdeen Giving Their Project Signings a Chance to Succeed?

Aberdeen's player-trading model depends on developing young talent. But are the foundations in place to make it work?

2 glaring omissions from 6music's Indie Forever football special this morning: 1. Son Of My Father by Chickory Tip 2. Swerving The Checkatrade by Half Man Half Biscuit. (to be fair, there's a dozen or more HMHB songs that could have been included) Otherwise it was quality 👍 #6MusicIndieForever #HMHB

Another striking option in the door at Pittodrie. 6'2" and "exceptionally quick" apparently. Surely we must be getting some of the dead wood out the door imminently?
