Happy #FootballShirtFriday - some absolute classics on show in this BBC doc on Cameroon's 1990 World Cup squad. Italia 90 was a festival of legendary Adidas shirts. Have donated to Cancer Research UK #greenlions bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episod…

Highly amusing from Private Eye Magazine - go buy a copy...

Frank Field was a one-off. Great parliamentarian. He’ll be massively and widely missed

One for Dan Slee who has also blown the whistle on what is, in effect, a taxpayer subsidy to large newspaper publishers...

In my city it appears I can vote for a converted yellow shipping container to represent my interests...your move Count Binface
