I have just been arrested by the police in Madrid, Spain. My phone and passport have been seized but I had a second phone in my pocket so I’m writing this from the back of the police car. I was at Puerta del Sol for just 5 minutes. Police told me I cannot have conversations in the public square. I researched the law and spoke with a lawyer and.they are wrong.

Saw the @simonhill1894 call before the sbs call after the match. Absolutely outstanding.

You can only pick one player from England’s 2006 World Cup squad and place him in the current team. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Who are you picking? 🤔

Daughter's 15th b/day & we're in Riva Restaurant St Kilda. I see Warnie at the bar alone. OMG thats Shane Warne I say & am nudged over. I apologize for bothering him & ask if I can shake his hand. "No shakes mate! We do hugs!" he said, gave me a hug & sent drinks to our table. 🙂

I never accused you of being silent on the issue, Matt. I simply said that calling the inquiry, and those who participated in and supported it, "dumb" was wrong. I asked a question: were the rape gang victims dumb for having participated in, and praised, that non-statutory private inquiry? Furthermore, would Reform use its findings to inform their statutory inquiry, if they were to form a government? I would hope so. In which case, it's neither dumb nor pointless. In lashing out at Restore, you said something objectionable. In your response to me, you ignored the questions, went to motive and insults, and didn't clarify. You have a habit of talking past a point, and attacking an interlocutor. It's a good tactic for television, but it's not about me and you, in this case. It's about the rape gang victims who had an opportunity to tell their stories for the first time, at the inquiry, which you have dismissed to score partisan points.
