So @thatjanravens, what must be done? Can't wait to learn the solutions! Hats surely play some role?
My book Ten Years To Save The West will be published in 2024 by @BitebackPub in the UK and @Regnery in the U.S.
It will set out what we must do to counter the disastrous ideas of the global left and halt the rise of totalitarian regimes. More here👇🏻

Similarly, there are reports that " Bright Side " is going to be cut
Untrue, for a very good reason
We don't want to upset Eric and it's his only contribution to the Life of Brian script
with none of them going on to lift the trophy...

The Conservatives failed so totally to give the queen the send-off she deserved. Ushering out the charlatan Johnson and welcoming the stooge who backed him to the bitter end. All amid very real danger for the country.

Presumably he was pro having it, and pro eating it.
A supporter of the Prime Minister has just told @c4news that Boris Johnson was “ ambushed with cake “
Had intentionally stayed out of this, but for fear of an unpopular take -- let's not risk Lewis' already unmatched legacy by trying to give him the magic 8th F1 championship in a courtroom. Would do nobody any favours, least of all him long term. This one's done, he'll be back.
Some highlights from tonight's last German election TV debate, where we learned Armin Laschet drives an electric car, Olaf Scholz favors local spuds, Annalena Baerbock's been on the buses, Alice Weidel likes her bike and Janine Wissler takes the tram.

A look at why many German voters are still undecided days before the election.
Merkel's departure, the candidates' lackluster campaigns and complex coalition arithmetic all probably play a role.
Big thanks to @hoyer_kat and Professor Thomas Gschwend.

"Simplify, then add lightness," to quote a wise old F1 fellow (who admittedly was perhaps not the first word in safety himself).
Fuji 2007 took place in conditions as bad as Spa last weekend. Seb Vettel and Fernando Alonso see some key factors limiting racing in such bad weather now #F1 motorsport.com/f1/news/cars-…

'There's more to Merkel's sense of humour than meets the eye, but she's unlikely to appreciate Johnson's slap-on-the-back type banter'
I enjoyed answering questions on Boris Johnson, Angela Merkel and Brexit for @DeutscheWelle's @marks_hallam 👇

The staid scientist and the classicist cad.
A quick look at the contrasting personas of Angela Merkel and Boris Johnson ahead of perhaps their last 1-on-1 as UK PM and German chancellor.
Thanks to @hoyer_kat and @Usherwood for invaluable input.

Der @dlf ruft an: Hi, wir würden gerne in aller Herrgottsfrühe mit Ihnen über Benzin und Stickoxide reden.
Ich: Immer gerne.
DLF: Am Liebsten über..
Ich: .. Festnetz, ich weiß. [durchsucht eigenes Kontaktbuch nach eigener Nummer] Ich hab mein Festnetz nur für den DLF angeschafft.
Deja vu... Poor Marco's missed basically every major international tournament of his career. (Or rocked up half-recovered and come off the bench if he's lucky.)
Nächster Hammer! Marco Reus fährt nicht zur EM! Er selbst entschied mit Bundestrainer Jogi Löw, dass er lieber Regeneration statt ein Turnier will @BILD_Sport @westsven
