So Michael #Carrick will have his managerial fate decided at some fancy pants venue in #Monaco. Seems emblematic of all that's gone wrong at #ManchesterUnited. What's wrong with holding the meeting in the back room of a pub in #Manchester?

Are #ManchesterCity throwing this match v Forest just to spite #ManchesterUnited and put us into the relegation zone?

I hope that's the last time #Martinez ever plays for #ManchesterUnited.

Crikey, could it be that both #Manchester clubs will be relegated this season? #ManchesterUnited #ManchesterCity

As @andyburnham prefers to focus on fixing the little things that annoy British people, rather than the economy, defence of the realm, etc., hope he can squeeze in some legislation to make it easier to remove the foil from jars of Skippy peanut butter. Thanks!

I wasn't a fan of #Brexit and have been happy to see public opinion shift in favour of rejoining the EU...but...and it's a pretty big but...maybe we'd better hold our horses and see what happens with French debt. Probably not a bailout we want to be on the hook for.

Please, please, please #SheikhJassim make another attempt to buy #MUFC. The Glazers and #Ineos have utterly destroyed our club.

Even here in the Old City of #Dubrovnik you find they've taken #sevenoaks to heart

Since #Brexit I have to buy a European Roaming Pass from @VodafoneUK each time I travel to Europe. These £16 roaming passes should be itemised on bills as the "Farage Charge," as he's the bloke ultimately responsible for bringing in this "tax" on Brits travelling to Europe.

Do we know what the rules are? What’s the scoring criteria? I didn’t even know this was a thing.

Peterborough Services, Costa, Saturday. Lady in the queue behind me. "Can I get...." Young batista immediately replied "No, I'll get it for you, what would you like". Woman, taken by surprise, apologised, rephrased to "please can I have..." That young man is doing God's work.

If #Trump can give every adult American $5000 if he wins the mid-terms, perhaps #Farage can use his party's £72million donations windfall to dish out some cash to every adult Brit if he becomes PM. We'd get about £1.31 each!

Very sorry to learn Keir #Starmer is standing down as an #MP. When #Burnham gets turfed out as #Labour leader it would have been good to have Starmer still around. He might be needed as a caretaker PM at some point.

Please repost if you want Andy Burnham to work to restore our EU Freedom of Movement as soon as possible. It was robbed from us by the worst abuses of democracy in modern British history. – at Brighton, England

As #KingCharles sells jams in the UK through his #Duchy Organic partnership with @waitrose, one hopes that #Meghan won't start selling her "As Ever" jams here too. If she does, things could get a bit sticky.

#Harry and #Meghan left the UK in 2020 ostensibly because of the intense level of intrusion by the UK media into their lives. With their impending return to the UK, it's very hard to imagine the level of media intrusion into their lives will be any less now #Megxit
