Had never watched this before. What an amazing moment it must have been.

Remember watching Monty & Jimmy fending off the Aussies from the Ops Room in Sangin in July 2009. Those were bleak days but England holding on for that draw & setting up the series win that followed put occasional smiles on otherwise grim faces. Shame to see him reduced to this.
"What's immigration got to do with Nato?"
"We can't control our borders."
"Your party doesn't refer to illegal migration anywhere in its ten-point plan."

challenges Monty Panesar on 'withdrawing from Nato' as the top priority for George Galloway's party's manifesto.

What an unbelievable waste of time. A council that is massively in debt & struggling to get their finances into balance has surely better things to do than this. Especially when it turns out the whole thing was nonsense anyway.
On 23 April 2024, Somerset Council voted on a motion in respect of a commercial investment property it owns at 600 Aztec West. (1/4)

Absolute legend.
'Not everyone wants to be Prime Minister'
Former Defence Secretary
@BWallaceMP
says he's happy to leave the top job to "somebody else", adding he wouldn't like to be spotted like a celebrity in the shops.

Should the UK be spending billions more on defence?

Important with 🇬🇧 announcing that they will take defence spending towards 2.5% of GDP in the coming years. There will be an election in between, so it’s of course important to hear what the Labour opposition has to say. But the increase strengthens the security of all of Europe.

Rishi Sunak’s best day as PM. Defence of the Realm should always be the Conservative Party’s first and fundamental mission.

Huge announcement. Of course there's an argument for more or sooner but that would be churlish response to biggest uplift in my lifetime. This will transform MOD's finances, allow UK defence industry to confidently scale up, & make our frontline forces more lethal & sustainable.
Today is a landmark moment in the defence of the United Kingdom.
We’ll spend an extra £75 billion in defence over the next six years.
▪️ Protecting our security and prosperity
▪️ Backing Ukraine for the long-term
▪️ Leading the way in European security

BREAKING: UK is putting its defence industry on a "war-footing" - investing £10 billion to ramp up production- as part of a plan to increase defence spending by 2.5% by 2030, Prime Minister
@RishiSunak
has declared.
This is a really big deal
