Unai Emery’s grandad played in goal for Real Union de Irun. His dad played in goal for Real Union. His son plays in goal for Real Union. He bought Real Union to save a historic club, four-times cup winners. A family responsibility, he calls it. espn.com/soccer/story/_/id/5…

So, has Hampshire and Solent reorganisation been scrapped altogether, or is it just the councils that were approved? Will we have a mayor in 2028? Nobody seems to know... #LGR

💔 90 años del asesinato de Federico García Lorca
En la madrugada del 18 de agosto de 1936, con tan solo 38 años, fue fusilado en Granada uno de nuestros más universales y celebrados creadores
✍️ Recordamos su figura con 'Memento', de 'Poema del Cante Jondo', publicado en 1931
I'm grinning with this news. 100% the type of common-sense policy change the government should have made a long time ago, which makes a significant difference to many people's lives.
Well done to all who made it happen. Proud to have worked on this campaign!

🚨 HUGE win for the disabled community.
Near 2 years of campaigning - a petition, grilling ministers, debates, forcing my amendment to a vote, meeting the Bus Minister - time restrictions on disabled bus passes are being scrapped.
Disabilities don’t start at 9am. Neither should bus passes. And soon they won’t - at last.
Know any great artists?
Submissions are being invited for a new commission in Chandler's Ford to mark the 90th anniversary of the temporary camp for 3862 Basque child refugees.

He played for Yugoslavia at the Parc des Princes vs 🇫🇷
He played for some of the best Yugoslav clubs.
He got a law degree, then went to pilot school.
He also escaped while on a football tour & went to fight in the 🇪🇸 Civil War.

To what extent do the scenes of thousands of Moroccans streaming into Ceuta today reflect part of US attempts to destabilize the Spanish government (retaliation for its policy on Iran/Israel)?
Comes just after Morocco joined Trump's Gaza Peace Board and announcing the highway from Southern Morocco to occupied Western Sahara would be named after Trump.
Could be pressure on Sanchez to move further on Western Sahara or accept Casablanca as the location for the 2030 World Cup final but either way, Rabat is most likely acting with the support of the US.
