Lord Nelson was 5ft 6in. His statue is 17ft 4in.
That’s Horatio of 3:1.

Not that I'd ever defend booing, but those in the South Stand could easily not have known what the break was for, as you couldn't see the scoreboard announcement. You'd have had to have seen it on social media/in the paper before the game

Wuthering Heights is at its heart a story of class and race. Emerald Fennell has got it all wrong | Rhiannon Lucy Cosslett By turning the novel into just a corset-heaving love story, the director has stripped it of what made it so boundary-pushing, says Guardian columnist Rhiannon Lucy Cosslett

I make this approximately 2,342 articles the Grauniad has written about "Wuthering Heights" πŸ€” search.app/T6Mt5

Staggering that 24% of voters in this advanced country continue to believe in a bunch of entitled bigots with unworkable policies, whose very ideas put us in the abject chaos we are in. Truly God awful idiots, and I make no apology for saying that.

Thank you once again for doing this. I'd be grateful if you'd include my very much missed Mum Shirley Platts #Mums26

Was really trying not to binge watch but just watched the last 3 episodes. Perfect, unique television. Weeping at "forever"

Why are models still made to stand in these weird poses on clothing web sites. This does not help me decide if I want to buy that cardigan (for that is what is on sale here). I'm never going to adopt that pose when wearing it (my back couldn't cope)

Various British icons that are here through direct or parental immigration laid out like Sgg Peppers album cover which also is a result of immigration.

Just a reminder to any racist millionaire football club owners out there that without immigration we wouldn't have any of this

FT Chelsea 2-2 Leeds United

Unbelievable. What a comeback.

Four points against the Club World Champions will do just nicely.

Lovesick (aka Scrotal Recall 😳) with the wonderful Johnny Flynn is now on ITVX. If you've never seen it I 100% recommend it. My Mum recommended it to me when it was first on Channel 4 and she was always right.

Put community repair shops on every high street. Our work shows people love it, increases community interaction & helps people keep essential goods going for longer giving them more money to spend on food & utility bills It reduces waste and so reduces local authority costs. It is a win, win, win.

Sorry but why the fuck would you *not* want to recreate 2006?Pre-financial crash, pre-austerity, pre-Brexit, pre-inflation. Britain's economically healthy, decent public services, largely competent government, fairly amiable political disputes. What kind of person prefers this period to that?

If Matthew Goodwin is the very best Reform can muster for an eminently winnable by-election, the unfeasibly warm welcomes for the worst of Johnson & Truss's flotsam & jetsam suddenly make much more sense.

Emily Thornberry MP:

"How dare this man, who's never seen any action, who somehow or other, when there was a draft for everybodyelse in the United States, managed to avoid it"

"And yet now is commander in Chief and knows nothing about how it is that America has been defended."
