The main takeaway from #BBCQT is that Suella Braverman thinks you can only be English if you are white, but didn’t quite dare to say so.

Sad days again #GBcycling have no teams in the road races at the European Championships & only 4 riders in the TT such a waste. Its not just about the winning what about the chance for riders to wear the national jersey? Will GB ever be considered a serious cycling nation?

I wonder if the 5 guys arrested at #Fairford are free Palestine demonstrators? Black barrels full of paint? Or fly tipping gang 😂

The five people arrested are all British nationals so it would be remarkable if they re-entered the UK by small boat crossing the Channel

UCI really are pathetic two riders missing for Eritrea due to no visas. Then large fines - are the UCI really trying to build cycling or just keep out smaller nations?

Google finally updated some of its satellite images of Gaza and my god, it's horrific. The entirety of Rafah has been demolished. The majority of Khan Younis is in ruins. Entire towns completely leveled and erased of the map.

Final sentence of this team time trial reg is one of the UCI's most endearingly opaque. I'm hoping to see it in action later this afternoon as I join @jezcox.bsky.social to call the Mixed Relay from the Montreal World Champs. From 13.20 BST, 14.20 CET on TNT - HBO.

Portsmouth had been the site of a large protest on Sunday following the arrival of a large dinghy containing an estimated 140 asylum seekers at the city’s Eastney harbour.

I am bloody proud to be an #RNLI supporter and member! These brilliant men and women have quite enough to cope with without being harassed by the scum of the earth. Their only concern is to help people in danger at sea - not check passports first! Which is how it should be. Please RT if you agree🙏

My first cartoon for adults for a while, on the Dover business
A one panel cartoon showing three male-looking figures in all black wearing balaclavas, so you can only see their eyes. Below it says: 'Spontaneous' protest. The figure on the right is saying: 'OMG, SO EMBARRASSING, WE ALL WORE THE SAME OUTFIT!

During the final kilometer of the individual time trial at the SauerlandRundfahrt 2026, Louis Leidert (Lidl-Trek) encountered two cars on the course that had no business being there. With the first oncoming vehicle, things could have ended very badly. Fortunately, nothing happened. Phew!
