Yes, that little hottie, a new poster girl for Reform - a ring on her finger and an XXXL tag on her ankle. Some poor bloke must regret letting that one get away.

Interesting to hear one of the convicted Southport rioters admit that she was stupid to be taken in by all the fabricated stories, some of which were promoted by GB News' finest for personal gain.

It’s really difficult to curate in order but here’s ten bangers that have all been soundtracks to my life - not much modern stuff, mainly classics from the golden era of rock - if you don't know some of these, check them out on Google, you won't be disappointed. Yodel Blues by The Petersens – any contemporary rock band that fuses yodeling with country has to be on any playlist. Crazy Frog, Tricky, beautiful lyrics and melodies. Gary Glitter – I’m the Leader of the Gang, doesn’t get the recognition these days, reminds me of scoutcamp and those nights by the fire, milking goats while blindfolded, I can still hear them grunting. Copocabana – Manilow is the governor when it comes to gritty storytelling, this one has a bit of everything, always makes me cry. Grandad by Clive Dunne with it's epic driving bass drum - Dunne was a vastly underrated soul singer, did sessions with Aretha Franklin back in the 60s. Stripped, Raped and Strangled by Cannibal Corpse (radio edit), a lovely ballad that suffered from lack of airplay. Jingle Bells by The Singing Dogs - a yuletide classic, great harmonies and arrangement. Check out the 12-inch Vince Clarke remix for the best dance version. There was a proper band that knew how to damage a hotel room, and pavements. Atmosphere by Russ Abbot, a lyrically-driven Gothic classic, Bauhaus meets The Sisters. Minuetto Allegretto by The Wombles, it’s their Bohemian Rhapsody, rock meets opera, it’s emotional, it reminds me of a girl I was going out with back then, she was a unit, and quite furry. This song makes me want to pick up the dirtiest thing on the street - to recycle. The Day We Went To Bangor by Fiddler’s Dram – a festival anthem by the band the Wurzels could have been, great driving song and what a bass line, this song was always a big moment at every rave in 89. I can see lasers, I feel thirsty.

Do you think they've had some mission creep on that worthy aim and gone a little bit too war-crimey?

War chest? Have you been reading The plucky blue army battling at fortress fratton News again - it's a fucking biscuit tin.

Liam has always been a total twat, but it now emerges that he and Noel have a brother who is even worse.

Spain were definitely the better side - right up until the moment when they weren't.

What a great night, that team has got more fight than an Oasis soundcheck. Nice to see some proper winners in England shirts.

Well I'm staggered to discover that someone from Reform would make up a load of old crap, purely to stir up hate in an attempt to harvest votes from the ill-informed. Making up shit for personal gain would be a massive change of direction for Nigel Farage, this is a shocking revelation.

Hopefully those who granted Israel a free pass to do what the fuck they want now see that the IDF have abused that trust. They've abandoned the hostages and gone on a mass killing spree. #warcriminals

Nice to see that video includes a nod to Danny Ings with a recreation of his knee slide in front of the Fratton End. Nice touch.

I was saying that between them he and his colleagues made hundreds of millions. The biggest Brexit donor gave Nigel £800k to promote chaos in the market in 2016 and then made £220m overnight from the uncertainty. Farage even used the Coutts situation. His boss at GB News was fortunate enough to make millions on the timing of the announcement - he was incredibly lucky when he guessed the exact moment his friend would go public. It definitely wasn't insider dealing, Nigel gained nothing from the man who pays him for TV work, it was just a lucky guess.

Let's build a compound in the woods, we just need bibles, guns and soup.

For city trader Farage, Reform is nothing more than his latest business - it's bankrolled by donors who guide policy, whether it's promoting fossil fuels or tax breaks, while his previous Brexit business enabled him and his trader colleagues to make hundreds of millions. It's obvious to anyone with a brain that it's all about Nigel, but plenty are too thick to notice when they're being scammed by multi-millionaires pretending to be working class. When a teenager is leading a county council that has a £650m budget and complex spending issues, surely even the most easily-led can hear the alarm bells?

What a rollercoaster of a result, great to see an England team with fight and resilience and no mentions of Gerrard or Lampard or golden bloody generations. I fear Spain might be a step too far, hopefully the Germans can nick that one on penalties.

The mission to rescue hostages seems to have been abandoned in favour of merciless revenge against civilians. These daily war crimes being committed by the Israeli government - and that's just a fact, they meet every definition of war crimes, have nothing to do with self-defence, the mission the world originally supported. When 28 countries of varied politics now demand that you stop killing kids, it may be time to accept that you have lost the moral high ground - and probably lost it forever. The orphans who crawl out of the rubble today won't forget - Israel has created the next three generations of terrorist.

When she was at her stupidest, Philip Hammond made an equally stupid mistake in the Commons. Some people chose to highlight hers and ignore the one made by a white man, they're still at it now. We see you.

They voted for a circus. 🤡 The rest of us are going to need more popcorn.

France picked a side lacking experience, they had no Plan B for breaking down a resolute defence and they didn't bother to practice penalties. Au revoir.

Yes there were some terrible penalties and some Saintly defending early on, but they came back from two down and on the brink in the shootout to get through. If the men had shown the same resilience and fight over the years, 1966 wouldn't be an oasis of joy in a huge desert of underachievement, golden generations and failure. Bring on Italy, see if the women can do better than the men did against them when the title was on a plate. I suspect they will.

It's much better to use off site parking companies, some get a bad rap but they put the mirrors and seats back how you want - and you also get to see your car on the British Rally Championship highlights.

People who claim to have a really broad musical taste, oh yeah, I like all kinds of music, everything from Coldplay to Dire Straits, and I love all the Brit Pop bands... They don't realise how large the spectrum is from Gregorian chant music to Death Metal, they've only ever listened to commercial radio with a playlist of a dozen songs and because they enjoyed six of them they think they've experienced every musical genre.

He only started getting his genitals out after walking under a phone mast, now all the tofu-eating, Islington, remoaner wokerati are making out he's some sort of talentless seedy sex pest pervert who should be behind bars in the nonce wing of HMP Rapey. Poor bloke, his career ruined by fifty or sixty* jealous women. * figure may change.

Tories had the right idea, talk tough, look strong, refuse compromise, repeat hollow soundbites, offer nothing, preside over chaos - and definitely don't plan anything in the budget for the inevitable agreement.

I would also have Joy Division in a top ten, but I would go for Atmosphere. And it's marginal but for me it edges Russ Abbott's song of the same name.
