“Last night, Mic released his latest Substack. I highly recommend giving it a read, as it sheds light on how journalists from certain (only fit for lining the cat litter tray) newspapers have been reporting the latest attack by the Tories on common decency and (he of the BBC with a voice – may not always be impartial, but he is almost always bloody right…apart from sometimes on Match of the Day) national treasure Gary Lineker, (who is revered by Everton…only if it was for one season…and Leicester fans). The article makes for a sobering read.”
Do yourself a favour and get signed up to his newsletter, you will learn a lot about how the press works and more often doesn’t!

Hey, @GaryLineker, I've got an idea for your next Tweet. It goes something like:

"Hi @BorisJohnson, would you like an £800,000 personal loan arranged by the Chair of the BBC?"
Apparently that's a fine thing to offer, so shouldn't get you in any trouble.
