    BREAKING: Axios claims the US and Iran have agreed to stop attacking each other and meet this week in Doha, Qatar.

    Of course, this comes just 1 hour before the US stock market futures open.

    Everything will be fine.

    Oh Canada!

    Following the suggestion of KCIII I expect the Scots will choose to support Canada for the rest of the tournament, given that it's another of his realms.

    Anything but changing the rules. The judges aren’t incompetent, they are just enforcing the rules.

    Injured Raducanu withdraws from Wimbledon

    Britain's Emma Raducanu will not play at Wimbledon after withdrawing on the eve of her home Grand Slam tournament because of a stress fracture in her lower right leg.

    Raducanu, 23, announced the decision shortly after 22:00 BST on Sunday - about seven hours after telling journalists she planned to play.

    Raducanu, who is seeded 30th, was due to start her campaign on Monday against Croatia's Antonia Ruzic on Court One.

    "I've done everything possible to try to get to the start line but after a final scan tonight the niggle I've been managing has developed into a stress fracture," Raducanu said.

    "I've been medically advised to stop pushing through."

    PUSHING THROUGH?

    It will attract activists like flies around the proverbial.

    It's an absolutely dreadful idea.

    Forget everything else, why announce this now? We're effectively in a shortish interregnum, shouldn't she be waiting to confirm who the new boss is and what Andy thinks?

    Um, won't that slow things down? Or is she suggesting the worst spinoff of "X Factor" ever?

    "Andy? What do you think about this?" "Aaaaa-mazing!" "Great! I'll announce it!" .... "LOL - see ya on the back benches!"

    Alls well with the world . Wimbledon starts tomorrow !

    There’s nothing quite like it. Im tuning out of politics and the news in general and am going into my happy tennis bubble!

    Always brilliant. Absolutely in my top 5 annual sports events along with the Open, the Arc, the Crucible, and Boxing Day football.

    I'd like to see Novak do 25.
    Forgive my stupidity, but what's the Arc?
    A big horse race in Paris. First Sunday in October. 12 furlongs, flat.
    Ahhhhhh, I see, thanks. Sadly I know as much about horse racing as I do about the Old Testament, it's all Greek Hebrew to me.
    You are far from alone. It's a struggling sport, sadly.
    Back in the day when I worked for a company where the Directors indulged themselves, a colleague woke up after an industry do lying on the grass near a big tower, the Directors passed out around him. After the initial reaction of "what am I doing in Blackpool?", he remembered that someone had suggested going to longchamp for the Arc.

    Heard an anecdote today from a former chauffeur who was driving the chairman of Roche to a meeting with then Health Secretary Andy Burnham. Said he came back from the meeting and said 'that man hasn't got a clue what he is talking about and is out of his depth.'

    We will see if there is more to Burnham than the likeable northern chappy image, we must hope the Roche chair was wrong

    Was this chauffeur Albanian by chance?

    The government will repeal the Vagrancy Act tomorrow (Monday 29 June), bringing an end to nearly two centuries of legislation that has criminalised rough sleeping and begging.
    https://www.gov.uk/government/news/rough-sleeping-no-longer-a-crime-as-vagrancy-act-repealed

    Yet another policy announced outside parliament as Starmer's government continues its campaign to give the Speaker an aneurism.

    The government really dislikes ordinary people doesn't it.
