The legwork, and the sting, which seems to have caught out James Orr, Nigel Farage and Reform-UK was carried out by Verbatim Investigations who have dropped their own take on the story.

Dear #TheArchers listeners. Do not under any circumstances listen to any 6.30 comedy. Simply wait until the news starts to save you the trouble of moaning about it on here.

An interesting article about diversity in farming (or lack of it) in the Guardian #TheArchers www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Why am I called The Black Farmer? Because there are so few of us in Britain. I’d like that to change | Wilfred Emmanuel-Jones
Running a farm is tough – TV’s Clarkson’s Farm shows that – but I know many minorities would love the chance. And we would all benefit, says farmer and businessman Wilfred Emmanuel-Jones

The News: 1) Grocery prices are rising, the cost of living is increasing. Inflation is awful. 2) Houses prices are falling, equity is reducing. Deflation is awful.

No arrivals by small boats for the last 10 days now. As of yesterday, 12,469 people had arrived so far this year across the Channel, down over 11,000 (47%) on the same time last year. More than 10% down on 2023 as well, which was when crossings were, by comparison to other years, lower.

Amazingly, Zahawi only got round to deleting the below after the press conference announcing his defection to Reform.

Why don’t you know what Labour are doing/already achieved? 🌹 Labour’s getting it done. 17 Manifesto pledges delivered, 18 on track, 19 in progress. That’s real change in just 15 months. #Labour #DeliveringChange #Starmer fullfact.org/government-t...

I’m sticking my head above the parapet on tonight’s 6.30 comedy, the Tim Key Poetry Show. I thought it was excellent; humorous, satirical and left field. There must be at least one #TheArchers fan who agrees (even though it’s against #TheArchers law).

A glorious evening to walk Ralf tonight in Sherburn. A Red Kite in sky above us, Skylarks a plenty and a Yellowhammer serenading us for “a little bit of bread and no cheese”. Makes you feel glad to be alive.

I think this might actually be my favourite live performance ever of all time. I love how Gail Ann Dorsey goes back to playing nonchalant bass in a kind of ‘what?’ way like she hasn’t just delivered the most incredible, powerful vocal…. youtu.be/U_h_qKX8dwY?...

A beautiful day at Croft Castle today. They’ve got sweet chestnut trees that date back to chestnuts taken from ships in the Spanish Armada. There’s also a 1,000 year old oak tree. Here’s my Blog from an earlier visit. c13mpr.com/2022/05/10/s...

Ardnamurchan and beyond… | Grey Hair & Muddy Boots

A walk to Hayburn Wyke yesterday. It’s a steep walk back from the beach, but well worth it. Ralf definitely agrees, although he prefers a sandy beach. #Yorkshirecoast
