Archer’s resignation from the London mayoral race after it was revealed he lied in court was the thing that got Paul Foot up from his sickbed and contributing again, having first started chronicling Archer’s lies and misdemeanours in 1969. From the Private Eye archive. Issue 992, December 1999.

Has anyone seen more than 2 bars on the Glastonbury ticket sale today? Think I preferred the hammering the refresh button technique of old

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.

I really want to get my hands on an old (1992-ish) Shrewsbury Town shirt, the one with WSJ as the sponsor. It’s the one I always associate with them from when I was a kid, but finding one in my size is apparently impossible.
An old Shrewsbury Town FC shirt.

Top tip. Avoid paying to see Oasis at Knepworth by sticking a record player at the end of your garden and play any Beatles b side instead

What I can’t get my head round with England is that despite 30 years of investment in English football through Premier League money, we still end up in a panic sending Dan Burn up front in the last 5 minutes. Player development in England is really lacking

Very odd tactics by England second half. Just completely stopped attacking
