Fret ye not young man, I've had a word with me ol' mucker Gideon at the Treasury and he's happy for me to pay your 50 pence contribution. If you let me know what you'd like your 50 pence contribution to go towards instead I'll let him know.

Why's that? (Aaaand, they're off......)

Later we'll be taking dedications for anyone wrongly turned down for planning permission. Also, I'll be asking: Which is the worst monger? Fish, iron, rumour or war?

Given how much the Tories have destroyed the country over the last 40 years I'm surprised that so many people still want come here.

I don't know enough about the situation to doubt what you say here, but do you have a link to any reports confirming how Turkey is (mis)treating fleeing Syrians so I can bring myself up to speed? I thought Turkey wanted to join the EU? Mistreating fleeing refugees doesn't seem to be the cleverest way of going about it I would venture.

How times have changed. They've gone from buying trips to Wembley with money they didn't have to.... buying their way out of trips to Wembley with money they've only got because they've been allowed to write off £100m+ of historic debt.... At least they can now concentrate on scraping last minute draws in the 4th tier of English football.

That was the bit that stood out for me too.
