Brexit: “The most dishonest campaign in our history said it would save us £350m a week, but Brexit actually cost us £250m a day in 2025. That is why we have the highest taxes ever, that is why we have sky-high bills, that is why we have a cost of living crisis” @eddavey.libdems.org.uk

Nottingham Forest win 3-0 at Anfield - and the score does not flatter them.

Overhead kick to take the lead.
Chip from the halfway line to finish it.
Why bother with all that passing rubbish?

First home Ryder Cup loss in 13 years.
Europe absolutely exceptional in front of the most abhorrently disrespectful crowd ever.
The US PGA even handed a microphone to an MC as inanely abusive as their spectators.

Shane Lowry: ‘That was the hardest couple of hours in my entire life. Honestly.
‘I said, ‘I have the chance to do the coolest thing in my life…’
‘The Ryder Cup means everything to me. I won the Open in Ireland, it’s amazing, it’s a dream come true, but the Ryder Cup for me is everything.’

Comprehensively beaten in all four sessions, US Ryder Cup captain Keegan Bradley grasps for another American Football analogy: ‘Well, I was at the 28-3 Super Bowl when the Patriots came back at the Falcons. I watched it.

American golf commentator and former professional Jay Townsend: ‘I want to say, all the Ryder Cups I’ve done back to 99, this is the worst crowd behaviour I’ve seen.’

First time in the history of the Ryder Cup that Europe has won the first three sessions in the United States.
And in front of what sounds like the least respectful home crowd ever.
