Oh great - another match featuring our esteemed national champions that, despite their player budget dwarfing all their UK opposition, is being played on a practice court infront of a couple of hundred people. Is that acceptable @SprLeagueBballM ?
The Riders are in town! ๐๐ฆ

RIP, Esther Rantzen. Famous for, among many many many things, that incredible clip of Nicholas Winton, the man who saved 669 children in World War II, keeping it secret for 50 years, until his wife found the scrapbook documenting it.

Loving Last Night of the Proms.
The entire Proms truly demonstrates the important role the BBC has as a British cultural institution.
It desperately deserves a Culture Secretary who supports it, champions it, and actively fights for it, especially when it has to cut ยฃ500m! ๐ฌ๐ง

Hey @google Iโd like to report an error.
The lake that borders New York and Ontario is an international body of water, and it is widely agreed by the entire world, except one rogue leader, that the name of this lake is โLake Ontarioโ
Grow a spine and fix it.

Sir Nicholas Winton rescued 669 children from the Nazis... and kept it secret for 50 years.

Another CEO with no basketball experience! How have they not worked out that this doesn't work!
I suppose it does mean she should come in with no pre-conceived ideas but she'll be informed firstly by people who have already failed English/British basketball.

Soltanto la viltร e l'abisso morale puรฒ spingere a vandalizzare pietre di inciampo di ebrei torinesi deportati nei campi di sterminio nazisti e lรฌ assassinati nelle camere a gas. Nulla e nessuno potrร giustificare un atto cosi vergognoso

Put domestic club loyalties aside tonight (like they were for Newcastle last year).
In order for British basketball to be taken more seriously on the European stage, we need our SLB teams to be successful on it.
A win for Manchester is a win for British basketball.
Good luck!

Dear Ms Patel..a) as even Mail says, *maximum* change would be need for words 'orange' or 'lemon' in front of 'marmalade' which (see pics) many makers already do b) it will be easier/cheaper to import Seville oranges if there is deal with EU..c) there are more important things..

While the worldโs media obsesses over every spit and fart from the White House over Iran, and Trumpโs endless commentary on talks and deals and negotiations, the ๐ท๐บ ๐บ๐ฆ war he said he would solve in 24 hours continues unabated โฆ and in addition to benefiting from the oil price rise and lifting of sanctions Putin has also unleashed the largest 24 hour aerial attack on Ukraine since the war began. Almost 1000 drones. A UNESCO world heritage site hit. A maternity hospital hit. Residential buildings hit. Several killed. Dozens injured. Barely registers on the news. This war must not be forgotten
