'Thames swimming race cancelled over sewage fears.'

It's been going since 1890 and now it's cancelled.

I'm being serious. Do the boards of Ofwat and the Environment Agency have absolutely no self-awareness at all?

It's time for change. It's time to go.

Breaking: Annelise Orleck, Head of Jewish Studies at Dartmouth, has been banned from Campus for six months after protecting Jewish students protesting for Palestine from police attacks

Judge Merchan rules that the Access Hollywood tape transcript can be admitted, but he will not allow the Washington Post article to come in as evidence, because associating the picture of Trump with his words is “powerful” and “damning” evidence that is “highly prejudicial.”

A nice man from UCL Hospital called this week, to say a scan of me showed the cancer I had has all gone. The treatment worked, the cancer bottled it and ran off, the wimp.

The near invisible methanol fire at the 1981 Indianapolis 500.

The Sun newspaper has been criticised for referring to Daniel Anjorin, 14 y/o schoolboy who was fatally stabbed in London, as 'sword lad', in a tiny slot on its front page. Sun's coverage of similar, recent incident involving white victims was different. #HainaultAttack

Imagine doing this to your own citizens, just so Israel can kill children…🇺🇸🇮🇱

BREAKING: The Time reporter who interviewed Trump is now saying Trump told him he wanted to consolidate power in an authoritarian manner. Retweet so all Americans know about Trump’s dangerous plans.

Let's take the same Office for National Statistics (ONS) database and use the inflation-adjusted series, as we really should when comparing flows over time.
Suddenly, what looked like an ever-increasing volume of trade is actually a lot more flat.
Goods exports (dark blue bars) are still well below pre-Brexit.

Kemi Badenoch Yet the actual data shows UK trade back to 2017 levels by volume, and for goods trade its 2013...

The damage you and the rest of the #Brexit Taliban have done to this country is clearly measurable, and clearly visible...

Don’t want to be harsh to Mr Giles but maybe read my actual statement which clearly states 'Exports are now 2% above 2018 when adjusted for inflation' or take a look at the statistics I referenced.

Much better than copying Ed Conway’s homework, badly.

Congress is instructing the FBI to investigate student protesters chanting 'death to America'.

There's just one problem: they never said that.

The Boris Johnson fiasco tonight reminds me of a previous local election, when he tweeted that he had just been to cast his vote.
Except...there were no elections in his area that day 😂

Boris Johnson tried to vote today.

His Voter ID was an envelope with his name and address on it!!

He was turned away

What a sham and an utter shambles
#VoterID #LocalElections

1) This is whataboutism at its best.
2) It's so dangerous for Israel to conflate itself, and its war crimes, with all Jews.
3) Jewish faculty & students are disproportionately represented in these protests so the antisemitism smear doesn't work like it used to

Last week, an independent review from the ex-French foreign minister rebutted multiple Israeli claims about UNRWA.

U.S. politicians/pundits endorsed the anti-UNRWA claims - and exacerbated a humanitarian crisis!
No apologies yet from them.
