Ah man. What a life. And what a love him & Lindsey shared. Legend & legacy are overused words but in Rob Burrow’s case, they’re barely adequate. Condolences also to Kevin Sinfield who distilled the essence of friendship.

Really excellent BBC documentary on the scandalous Andrew Malkinson case. What a brave man. Without the wonderful team at @we_are_APPEAL he would never have cleared his name. bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episod…

Fantastic to see real leadership from an MP who cares about his constituents, in particular the next generation of youngsters who need sensible career opportunities. Hats off to a flying start Jonathan Brash MP, refreshing to see 👏🏼

Bizarre editorial decision by Channel 4 News to devote first 25 minutes of tonight’s 7pm programme to the bullying complaints on ‘Strictly’. The issue might have justified 5 mins tucked behind the great stories of the day. But serious indulgence in such febrile and crucial times.

Took my dad to an appointment at the Cardiac Center at NHS Blackpool Teaching Hospitals 💙🌈 this afternoon - lovely modern, smart & clean building - friendly staff & seen by an exceptional & kind specialist nurse. 10/10 (not all the NHS is ‘broken’ - plenty of great care happening every day 😊)

There's no doubt about Paul Burgess CSFM's global leadership in grounds management & the application of technology. We mustn't forget his beginnings, a product of Myerscough College & University Centre MyerscoughGreenspace superb course & he was made a Hon College Fellow in recognition of this. Well done Paul!

Maybe, but don’t you agree that Met has a very poor record of disciplining its officers for some awful policing practice in the last 20 years including the Steven Lawrence ferago. So doubts until procedures help neither police or public. Seems Kaba was very far from being a hero!

Has Guardian sport given up on elite club rugby? Following the weekends Investec Champions Cup & EPCR Challenge Cup fixtures, the best it can do is 120 words tucked away at the bottom of p38. However F1 gets 4 full pages, AUS v ENG test 2½ pages, same for footie. Where is Robert Kitson etc?
