Hey @WeAreOpenreach … my Wifi was working perfectly until you ‘turned it on’ yesterday. And every time you text I can’t reply as the number is not recognised. You are going to lose @Sky a customer

Caring isn’t just my family's story, it is the story of millions, caring for each other, dealing with tough times, and keeping going with love. Sharing our story hasn't been easy, but it's important. It's time to bring carers' experiences into the light.

After 26 years, one final column - a thank you to sport and journalism and the guidance we all need along the way. Thanks to all the great people @thetimes and far beyond, supportive to the end. Psychotherapy and hopefully a book or two for me now 👍 thetimes.co.uk/article/6c6d0…

This 👇 FIFA has commissioned an independent review on its Qatar legacy which is thought to call for compensation for families of workers killed during construction But they won’t publish it. RT if you think they should ……
For 5 months, FIFA has been holding on to an independent review of whether they should pay compensation to workers who suffered to deliver the World Cup in Qatar. It's thought the review says they *should* pay - so it is time for FIFA to publish and act amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2…

Truly lovely scenes as IFK Gothenburg fans serenade Sven-Goran Eriksson with a tifo & song. 💙 It's 42 years since Eriksson led IKF to a shock UEFA Cup victory. Now 76, Eriksson is on a farewell tour having disclosed that he has terminal cancer.

Just heard the Home Secretary stand up in Parliament and declare that "the British people support the Rwanda plan". I'm sick of these guys telling me what I support. I do not support the "Rwanda plan". If you don't either, please retweet.

Back in 2016 I collaborated with today’s birthday boy, Derek Temple, for an article about the Toffees’ FA Cup run in 1966. It was a joy to capture his vivid recollections - including of that memorable final. Here it is, on @ToffeeWeb : toffeeweb.com/season/15-16/c…
