BBC News just interrupted its coverage to go, live, to Nigel Farage - a man with no contitutional standing in our setup - responding to the budget - a document which nobody has seen yet. WHY

This is such a fantastic photo: "The Witches' Tea Party" but I want to use it to explain the origin of the tall, pointy witches hat. The real story of this photo: These are residents at the Hospital of the Holy & Undivided Trinity: an almshouse in Castle Rising, Norfolk, England established 1610.

There is literally NO point in Man Utd sacking Carrick. They’ve had every type of manager since Fergie. Anyone who thinks it’s a manager problem is swimming in a large African river.

Yeah. That’s not going to happen is it.

We hear plenty about young people struggling to find work. But what about the over-50s? Nearly 3 million people below pension age are out of work, education or training – and many want to work. Why are they getting so little attention? @eastangliabylines.co.uk

#histscalemodels Anyone on here a regular bidder/buyer on the Veteranus auctions on FB? You can’t really ask questions on there or you get thrown off. But I’d like to understand a couple of things:

1. There are regular people who bid on & buy lots of stuff. Are they selling it on somewhere? 2. Why do people bid more than RRP on a readily available kit? 3. Why go from a £5 bid to £20?

He’s favourite film.

Trump: "I'm studying his body. I've never studied the body of a man before. It's not my thing. Nothing wrong with it, of course. But it's never been my thing. But I looked at his ass. I said, 'His ass, shit, it's like a pile of muscle.' Then I looked at his legs and I said, 'Man, his feet are big.'"

I’d just throw them out of NATO at this point. Seriously. They are a busted flush anyway. They don’t even have any missiles left.

Trump laments that Russia's generals were too incompetent to end Putin's war of aggression against Ukraine on the first day
