The Pope is right, of course, being infallible. You don’t see him tweeting about The Hundred or the IPL. He’s a Test cricket purist, which is why he wears white. But his comments about the Ashes making us humble and smoothing narcissism didn’t apply to Kevin Pietersen
The #Ashes remind us of who we are, which does us good. It puts us in our place, smooths out the rough edges of our narcissism, brings us back to reality, and makes us more humble and open to one another. None of us is God; we are all on a journey. #Lent

This Jewish boxer was forced to fight 76 death matches in Auschwitz.
The rules were simple: win or be killed.
He survived against all odds, then faced Rocky Marciano in his final fight.

The appalling scenes of mobs of thugs hunting down Israelis in Amsterdam after a football game show a modern-day pogrom in action.
The driver of a car hitting a man with his vehicle before speeding off.
An unconscious body kicked in the street.
People running for their lives.
A man begging for mercy as attackers yell “Free Palestine”.
This is what “globalising the intifada” looks like.
These images mirror early 20th century pogroms in Europe and elsewhere, where Jews were sought out by mobs and either ran or faced being beaten in the streets, or worse.
We are witnessing levels of antisemitism not seen in our lifetime, and it is of the utmost importance that Britain acts against the antisemitic thugs here at home who have become increasingly emboldened.
Anti-Israel demonstrators have taken over our streets week after week, calling for “intifada”.
How much longer will be it before scenes like these are replicated here?
To all those who chant for “intifada” week in and week out, what just happened in Amsterdam is what you’re asking for.

Excellent question from @NJ_Timothy and great answer from @DavidLammy. There is no “genocide” in Gaza.

obviously we’ve been robbed tonight but all our fans were celebrating not having VAR when we went down and this is one of the consequences of it… all balances itself out at the end of the day (sheffield wednesday home…)

As soon as I got out of prison, I asked my English teacher for her hand in marriage, an offer she said no to. A good reminder that you can’t end a sentence with a proposition.
