France's Prime Minister Michel Barnier tendered his resignation today, hours after being ousted in a no-confidence vote. Imagine how bad a job he must be doing to elicit more than a shrug. #BTNNB #BTNRejects
A serial world record-breaker from Germany reclaimed two of his former titles in a single day by drinking litres of lemon juice and lime juice. It's good to see he passed the acid test. #BTNNB #BTNRejects

Cocaine overtakes heroin as the most used drug by those starting rehab. Well, if you spend long enough chasing the dragon, you're bound to overtake it eventually. #BTNNB #BTNRejects
A butchers in Lancashire has secured the Argyll Golden Haggis Award for 2024/25 after a member of the team undertook a more than five-hour trek, braving Storm Bert, to ensure the haggis reached the judges on time. That must have taken a lot of pluck. #BTNNB #BTNRejects
Major supermarkets and food industry leaders have backed calls for the Government to ban cages for egg-laying hens. They insist it would be better for them to fight in a ring instead.
