This two tier policing is disgraceful. It's as if there is one approach for people who helpfully film themselves committing crimes and another approach when there is insufficient evidence.

A cash-strapped rural police force struggles to deal with Red Diesel gangs. Until its chief inspector realises can get the Met Police to deal with the problem... ...if he pretends they're Iranian. A new six part comedy starring Toby Jones.

#70Up may be ITV's greatest ever achievement, just for its sheer longevity and commitment. Regular but occasional. And unlikely to ever happen again on television. #ThisHasBeenAGlimpse #OfBritainsFuture

This would be everything I despise in modern football happening to my fan owned club. US capital behind it with Wimbledon as a mere vessel, a host from which bigger clubs can use to pick talent from. No plan but to move players through. If we agree to this I am out share.google/WnMuUMxFDigE...

Not this c*nt again... After getting the Brexit he pushed for, he shifted chunks of his UK businesses over to the EU - plus himself to low tax Monaco. If everyone damaged the UK like that faketriot, we really would be f*cked. Surprised he's not relocated Man U to Europe yet.

Honestly, the ‘Up’ series is some of the most important TV ever made. Michael Apted really asked some punchy questions. Knowing that 70 Up is the last to be made makes it all the more poignant.

This is racism, straight out of the Trump playbook. Reform are trying to turn our great country into a franchise of Trump's America. There are countless British patriots who came here from overseas, many of them refugees we proudly welcomed. That's the kind of country we are.

I 100% think we shouldn't have betting on our phones. For gamblers, that's like an alcoholic living in a bar. I can understand going to a place and betting on sports (not my thing and I worry about addiction, but I get it) but how can anyone say it is OK to place a bet on future military action?

Anyone who doesn't think we had autistic kids back in the day didn't know the kids I knew in elementary school, the ones that were called "hyper" or "spastic" or were suspected of having "water on the brain," etc. Kids today are a lot better off with a formal diagnosis and treatment.

There are is a generation of outer Londoners who see ULEZ as one reason they will hate Khan forever. That same generation's grandkids are healthier, in some cases ALIVE, because he has consistently been brave enough to do policy not politics on this city's air quality. an extraordinary legacy.
