Next proposed phase of that line will see a new station built at the museum.

He discharged himself from hospital last week where he was being treated for tonsillitis in order to go and play his last qualifying match.

No messin'.

An hour and a half into this and it probably speaks volumes that the opposition benches remain packed while Labour's MPs have left Starmer to deal with it on his own.

Hardly anything has happened at the site yet. They need to let it fall over on its own before saying that, I think.

The political aspect is that they don't want to look like they're trying to wreck a project that could potentially bring a lot of much needed jobs because it's a Tory thing.

Great how your phone gives you memories.

It's two years to the day since Rachel Reeves told me if Labour won the general election they would send the National Audit Office in to investigate the Teesworks saga.

The authority responsible hasn't published audited accounts since then, yet nothing.

There's only one vetting process I'm interested in, and it's the one where this guy paid to be sat at the commentary table for Wrestlemania.

It's definitely not the audience who wants more ads.

WE INTERRUPT THE SPECTACLE YOU'VE PAID FOUR FIGURES TO SEE TO BRING YOU AN ADVERT FOR SOMETHING ELSE.

ALSO THIS GUY IS HERE FOR SOME REASON.

Something very Late Stage Capitalism about the sound of this ad reverberating as it plays in bombardment of a half empty stadium where the cheapest tickets were $500.

No idea how expensive the highest priced were, but a crypto millionaire paid to sit at the commentary desk for a match last night.

this sounds kinda like a "who cares" achievement but its a very exciting milestone for rich guys who are extremely invested in a future where robots they control are slavedrivers and prison guards for the rest of the human population

Any excuse to post this.

Genuinely one of the best covers ever.

There's a lot of smoke and mirrors about Teesworks, but in its essence, here it is...

£550m of government spending.

£120m of that goes into the bank accounts of two men WHO DID NOT SPEND A SINGLE PENNY.

Truly one of the finest pieces of writing from the 21st century.

That says it all. You wouldn't see him at eg Durham.

Only about ten minutes from the location of the most important battle in the English Civil War if you have the time to spare, too.

Wetherby Services cementing its status as the GOAT with a red kite floating and scanning over the car park as I ate my lunch today.

Starmer: Full due process was followed!

(aside)
...alas the result was not what we'd hoped for.

To be fair, he doesn't say what the outcome of that process was.

Are you interested in an idiot dumbing down Moby Dick?

I am very capable of being that idiot for you.

Nobody talks about the time when Razorlight got radiation poisoning from the polonium meant for Litvinenko.

Migrants are making false domestic abuse allegations to stay in the UK, BBC investigation finds In the third part of an undercover investigation, the BBC reveals how rules aimed at protecting abuse victims are being exploited.

Alternative headline:

Vulnerable people exploited by profiteering fraudsters who stand to make millions by posing as legal advisors.

Think about how much cocaine is in his body versus how slowly he's moving here.

'shares soaring' when a shoe company says it will stop making shoes and get into AI instead has a distinct 'madness before a crash' feel about it.

There are 163 grammar schools in England out of around 3,500 in total secondary schools.

Absolutely insane anachronism (he types from a location where his own children are in a three-school system).
