“I too came from a poorish family,” says the 3rd Viscount Monckton of Brenchley, eldest son of Major-General Gilbert Monckton, 2nd Viscount Monckton of Brenchley and Marianna Letitia, Viscountess Monckton of Brenchley.
Every single time I go to look at Twitter there's about 20 notifications and it's mostly Tommy Robinson. I don't follow him, I don't follow any of his admirers, and yet that's who it wants me to see. Astonishing that the UK government's position on this platform remains "it's fine"

Agree but so well done by Bonneville as she had no time to shut him down which he knew she would
Iconic moment at the Downton Abbey premiere
I saw Anoushka Shankar and the other South Asian musicians on stage and said to my wife, I think Asha Puthli is in town, maybe she’s on the record. Then lo and behold, she walked on for track 2. Brilliant show
Back from The Gorillaz ‘mystery show’ with phones locked away. New album played and it was superb. Lots of South Asian influences and musicians. Guests on stage included Asha Puthli, Sparks, Johnny Marr, Idles, Gruff Rhys, Paul Simonen and Yashiin Bey (Mos Def)
I see the Tories are suddenly worried about Britain becoming a 'police state'
Sad to see Hot Rod and Deano impacted but Sgt Wilko doesn’t come out of this well www.bbc.co.uk/sport/footba...
Such national pride! www.cornwalllive.com/news/cornwal... #r4today
He’s definitely not the solution but I saw him do this two years ago
Gyabi looking non-plussed in the background of this moment
Third gig in three days seeing the Wolf Alice’s @banquetrecords.com show. Brilliant as always and new songs from The Clearing ace live
Well Burnley and Brentford losing may be better
Huge issues with a transfer with a Russian team due to sanctions so not sure they’d sell to an English club
Back to Rough Trade this time to see the extraordinarily brilliant Nova Twins
I think you’re doing Keith Andrews a disservice here
Well didn’t expect to see Hailey Williams when we popped into Rough Trade East
Looking forward to this. Great live too having seen her at Glastonbury and last weekend in London (where she also gate crashed Bombay Bicycle Clubs set to twerk)
Behind enemy lines for third away match running. Not expecting the same result as against Oxford and Plymouth #lufc
Nicely done 😃
Great win! Made even better with Martin Tyler and Micky Bridges on US TV comms duty rather than Andy Hinchcliffe back home on Sky #lufc
Danny Higginbotham the studio summarizer on US TV coverage
One of their other brothers Dick Stamp was a chemistry teacher at our school for a bit. He used to recount stories of trips across Asia and Afghanistan with Terrance which were mind blowing
I bought some stuff on the day of release and then returned it all unworn when I realised that none of it was limited and the Adidas store kept restocking ‘sold out’ items
Going to miss the Everton game as had to go to Orlando for work but on the plus side, finally got to go on Rise of the Resistance
Genuinely no idea how it passed me by given my age but heard it on my copy of Steve Lamacq: Lost Alternatives album and finally got round to buying the single
Got myself a copy of Strachan by The Hitchers. Lyrics take me back to 1991 ‘She said, "what's that you're watching?", "It's a Programme about art". She said, "A Programme about art?", I said "A programme about art" and then the greatest midfield artist of them all walked out onto the park’ #lufc
An early gig today seeing Khruangbin at Rough Trade East - a warm up for their Gunnersbury Park headline show. None of their vocal songs but Mark Speer is a phenomenal guitarist so everyone left happy
My diehard Benfica supporting mate says: ‘Interesting. He's the one that Liverpool wanted but he preferred Benfica. He's still a prospect. Very good technically but not great defending. Never really got properly going at Benfica, maybe he needs a new challenge’
Her dad was my GP at the time and my best mate at primary school’s uncle was her long standing partner (a musician credited on her albums). Aged 8 my mate thought she was weird
A wasteland of rubble, dust and graves: how Gaza looks from the sky
London was absolutely bonkers at 11.30pm last Saturday night as we crossed town encountering Oasis fans and Imagine Dragons fans going home from Wembley/ Tottenham. It was feral in the best possible way and absolutely buzzing
Oasis last night was a very different communal experience to Taylor Swift last year. The Swifties loved singing every word back at her. At Oasis, brothers, sisters, parents, kids, partners and spouses were hugging and singing back at each other. Great to see them with my kids
From The Oval to Wembley. Made it in time for Ashcroft #Oasis25 #EngvInd
Haha, its possible but meeting wife and kids at Oasis so need to reign it in
I’ve got flashback trauma from a day at the Middlesex 7’s followed by the Charlatans at Brixton. Can’t even remember Noel Gallagher joining Paul Weller in support until I was told the next day
Going to be messy day with a day at the cricket followed by Oasis #EngvInd #Oasis25
Epstein survivor Sarah Ransome on Ghislaine Maxwell: “It makes me sick that she is claiming to be a victim. This is the same woman that grabbed my arm and forced me into a room to be raped by Jeffrey. She had this evil smirk on her face. And she enjoyed it.” ht: @marcofoster.bsky.social
‘We are dying slowly, save us’: starvation takes hold in Gaza after a week of appalling milestones
Watford getting rid of their matchday programmes. The first of many?
Galactus is almost as big as our summer signings #lufc

Rob Smyth was a master at work on OBO
We have Mingge too www.lta.org.uk/about-us/in-...
Oh yes, remember having a heated discussion about 2018 with a right leaning mate and saying the same thing. How austerity was used as cover for a massive transfer of state assets (inc court buildings and police stations) into private hands. He countered that private run things better
My dad profited from British Gas privatization as he was an employee so could buy an extra slug
And all done under the cover of selling small amounts of shares to our mums, dads and grandparents. Vast majority of shares now in hands of institutional investors and former council houses with landlords owning dozens
Bamford told a story on a pod in June about his Palace loan. Said Pardew kept playing him on the right but saw him in training cut in & fire one in with his left. Pards was surprised & said he might play him on the left. That was when Pardew found out that Bamford was left footed & took months
Deborah Vance knew the writing was on the wall for late night and went out at the very top
🚨UK Lawyers for Israel Ltd has tried to silence various voices supporting Palestine. Their charitable wing has made public statements rejecting international law. Activist Em Hilton is on the Charity Commission offices to ask for an investigation. youtu.be/Ui70R8PCkJ4
But AoF is not Adidas and it’s an Adidas release
Plans to see our PL return against Everton kiboshed as need to be in Florida for work (am actually gutted). Fortunately coming back Saturday and can use wife’s Arsenal season ticket for Saturday evening #lufc
I'm probably the only person who remembers the 24-hour Louiethon on Live Aid day, loads of psych and indie bands tag-teaming Louie Louie non-stop for 24 hours at Dingwalls in Camden
Luckily mine was only £85 as was ‘restricted view’ as couldn’t see a tiny bit of the boundary. The day just felt a bit ‘bitty’ and no urgency at all from either side to force the pace
Cracking view in a shady spot at Lords. Great first hour for India but wondering which ginger player succumbs to heat exhaustion first
Let her do a pitch walk at the Aviva against Milan on 9 August
Digby 🐶
You made me look at the companies house site and some interesting #lufc TMs there trademarks.ipo.gov.uk/ipo-tmowner/...
That’s my thoughts exactly. There’s no banter or spontaneity at these shows and it’s simply some classic songs from the 90s sung live. I saw them in their prime and am going as my kids want to see them but am not expecting to be moved
In a horrifying article about the dangers of Teslas, one point stands out: Teslas automatically disengage self-driving mode <1 second before an imminent crash--not enough time for the driver to react, but enough for Tesla to deny responsibility for fatal crashes, since self-driving "wasn't engaged."
There it is! 40C appears on maximum temperature forecast chart from GFS 06z for Saturday 13th July! 🔥
Saved 4/7 penalties last season? We need him against Salah
Surely our patriotic press would be against foreign governments trying to interfere with our national broadcaster...
Glastonbury 2025 Complete! First one with our girls so different in some regards but much more special in most. Seen in order (and not including those playing whilst walking by)…
The gaffer will be able to celebrate before heading to the Pyramid to watch Rod Stewart #lufc #Glastonbury
Anti vax moon howlers like Kate Shemiran were the bane of our lives in education during the pandemic (can’t imagine how much worse for medics). She has now caused the utterly pointless and tragic death of her own daughter www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Farage and the far right in general come from a grievance culture. If you do what they want, even maximally – Brexit – they’ll move the goalposts and keep moaning. If you engage seriously with their concerns, they’ll find new ones. You will never satisfy them, because they don’t want to be satisfied
Sky also showed this one earlier today www.bbc.co.uk/sport/footba...
Same in the UK like when we learnt about Nigel F@rage singing Hitl€r youth marching songs at his high school (Dulwich College)
Fantastic Tim Minchin show tonight at the shiny new Soho Theatre Walthamstow. Wonderful to see a previously closed cinema back as a community space
Can’t happen soon enough. Personally hope Orient go up to Championship and then demand to ground share (given it’s a community asset and closer to Brisbane Road then Upton Park)
Totally agree but now much easier to get a ticket in their home ends if that’s the only option to see Leeds
Definitely not the recommended approach www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scot...
Daughters at Uni up there. On the list for our next visit
I’ve seen one poster on the efestivals forum saying it was a post cancer treat which is why they splashed out
I know it’s the wrong reason but I find it amusing they’ve never won anything but are now an established Premier League team
Me too but Arsenal deployed the long throw in their champions league semi final against PSG
So lucky to have been there and to hear Bruce deliver the wake-up call so many have ignored

Had to venture to Manchester for a rare opportunity to get up close and personal with The Boss. Angry and raging about what’s happening in the States throughout the gig #Springsteen
For some reason these tunes have been in my head this week so had to crack out the records #lufc
TANK vs TESLA "We've crushed fascism before and we'll crush it again" - WW2 veteran Ken, 98, in the tank
Same here. I’m even thinking of watching Welcome to Wrexham. Had convinced myself we’d be playing them in the championship but not quite yet
Good discussion and one of the rare examples it’s ok to share Talkshite
We're launching The Bee magazine today because the UK publishing and writing industries have a bit of a class problem.
Fantastic. Spy something new every time you look at it
#lufc
Champions Again! Leeds fans reaction as ref blows for FT (ball was at the other end so I was watching our fans) #lufc
Having recovered from the shock, I caught the end of the winning goal scrum #lufc
I wondered about that as I was in the home end, 5th row right behind that lino and it looked close. W@kners again but not costly as you say
Ha! Sadly not - day trip and having train beers on way home. First time back since a baby as was born there 55 years ago
I kid you not, I saw one of their fans in the home end wearing a Spurs t-shirt
First match in 1979 and never seen us win a trophy until today. Thanks boys (and Daniel) for memories to last a lifetime #lufc
Mayham at Plymouth #lufc
It’s mad here. Junior, Dan and Pascal in with the fans #lufc
Big Larry will be happy he’s got a prominent name check on today’s Argyle programme #lufc
