Russell as central striker. Only forward type player at the club that has height and strength to win headers and shield the ball - and exceptionally quick feet to score or produce intelligent short passes to bring others in on goal. @BarnsleyFC

A deliciously Pooterish comment: @GBNEWS is obviously not a news outlet in any recognisable sense. It’s a crude propaganda outlet catering to, and in notorious cases presented by, cranks & conspiracy theorists. It merits no respect and no public figure is obliged to speak to it.
'We are Britain's biggest news channel since July, we deserve respect from this government! It is a gross insult to GB News viewers.' Political Editor @ChristopherHope says he is 'furious' at Rachel Reeves as she ignores questions from GB News following her Autumn Budget.

The stand out legacy of #Trump 2nd Term will be that in November 2025 he tried to surrender to #Russia. Fortunately the #EU and #UK held firm in their support for #Ukraine. @realDonaldTrump - a weak president. #CNN

Not only Bumbling #Boris and #Conservatives to blame for #Covid debacle. @BorisJohnson would NOT have gained power if #Labour had put forward a credible PM candidate at the GE. Instead they put #Corbyn forward. #YourParty

When so much of UK media refused to challenge the then Tory Government @piersmorgan @susannareid100 & @GMB were so fearless in their pursuit of the truth the Government actually boycotted the show & refused to put up a minister for interview. If only more had been so fearless.

. @jacktolson report re: @BarnsleyFC meeting. Patrick changed direction of #Barnsley so every HC or player brought in would slot into the playing system eg a new manager could not change system and bring in their own players. @ConorHourihane - do not reverse that. @SportGids1

Heard about Arctic Skua today - which is great 👍 But relatively no news for weeks. Bird news on social media eg Twitter - which includes common species such as duck counts - is most important means of advertising the site to the public - to generate income in cafe/shop. #RSPB

“The government clearly never wanted these two things to be put together.” Labour has tried to play down the intersection of race and sexual predation because much of the grooming took place in Labour councils that did “nothing,” says @TrevorPTweets. @FiFiGlover | #TimesRadio

It’s going to be a long long time before the @Conservatives are forgiven for this squalor. They left office with every major government department wrecked. #Conservatives

"Flawed contracts" and "incompetent delivery" left the department unable to cope with demand for asylum accommodation, a report by MPs suggests.

. #Grooming Gangs - is NOT a race issue - it’s a religious issue. Do NOT label these gangs ‘Asian’ as this puts Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists at risk. The main problem stems from #Islam ie #Muslims - end of, full stop ! @VeraBaird
