“He’s got a beautiful accent. I’d love to have that accent” - Trump with Mandelson in the Oval Office just last year, the man he now says he never knew and thinks was a really bad appointment. Why do journalists never challenge him on these things? #r4today

Good result for Leeds that. West Ham
still 6 points behind and goal difference makes 7.

Not sure why they always draw the line just above Leeds for the relegation discussions? Ok - they’re not mathematically safe (though no team on 39 points at game 33 has ever gone down) but nor are any teams below Sunderland. Why not include Fulham, Palace and Newcastle in the discussions? #r4today

Yes - learning their behaviour in the year I’ve lived here. They’re now much more confident coming out in daylight. In the Autumn/Winter they never emerged before dusk

No club has ever been relegated having posted 39 points at this stage in the season in the Premier League era. Reassuring for Leeds that!

Trump trying to distract us from the Epstein files with talk of space aliens. Seriously! #bbcpm

Watford Manager sacking day (several of these to enjoy each season). Ed Still gathered the players in the centre circle at full time because he doubts he’ll be in post by the time the players reach the dressing room! #bbcpm

Leeds probably safe now - for that to change they’d have to lose every one of the 5 games left and one or two of those below would have to win all their remaining games (give or take). 39 points has been enough 21 from 22 of the last Premier League seasons I’m told #bbcpm

The reason I’m fuming about this Mandelson mess is because it’s entirely self inflicted and all in the cause of giving Mandelson another opportunity to jump in the trough with all four trotters! Meanwhile I face the voters on Tuesday when postal votes land. Fantastic! #wato

When did CNN have Trump at 100% in the polls? Why don’t the Washington Press Corps challenge Trump on this en masse and if he turns on them walk out and do a to camera on the front lawn saying “the President is lying”? All of them - how would he answer that? #r4today

Trump at it again - a Fox News presenter he’s attacking this time. Every day without fail he disgraces his office. #r4today

True - but it brings down our poll ratings and just 4 days before postal votes hit the doormats on Tuesday. Starmer should have got this out the way last week. Now we have a weekend of negative headlines to come and the statement to MPs on Monday. That timing couldn’t be worse

Labour recovering in the polls - 4 points up in latest one with Reform 4 points down. Then the Mandelson thing is back front and centre with a statement to MPs on Monday after a weekend of negative coverage. Postal votes hit the doormats on Tuesday. Great! #r4today

“How can we boost Reform - it’s the short campaign and the law demands strict balance?” ‘Don’t worry, we’ll lead on our ‘immigration abuse investigations’ for a couple of days running, that should do the trick’. We see you BBC and we know what you’re up to! #r4today

They need to make it a subscription service - if it’s as popular as they claim they’ll be fighting customers off with a stick

“But it’s the short campaign - under the law we can’t invite Reform on to trash the government without giving Labour equal time to reply” ‘don’t worry - we’ll put immigration front and centre by leading on fake asylum applications, it will have the same impact’ “genius idea!” #wato

Thought for the Day lady says Trump has blood on his hands and the Pope is right to say as much (paraphrase but that’s the gist of it) #r4today

Trump says he never claimed to be bigger than God just bigger than Rod “which is true, he’s nothing like as popular as he used to be” using a Rutles style defence to dig himself out of a big hole! #bbcpm

Our lack of preparedness in the event of attack is the fault of the disabled and the low waged claiming benefits? And here’s me thinking it was Tories slashing the Defence Budget! You learn something new every day! #wato
