I thought that next year's London Marathon would be popular but the figures released this morning are pretty astonishing: - A world record 1,338,544 people have applied for the 2027 London Marathon - Over one million from the UK and 300,000 international applications - Almost two percent of the entire UK adult population entered the ballot - More than double the applications for the 2024 London Marathon (578,304) - Almost 100k people from the US (92k) applied - Highest number of UK applicants were women aged 20-29 (179k)

#Sunderland record their first away win against Coventry City in 40 years - and being a playoff match it made it all the more sweeter. Well done lads. Unbeaten under #PopeLeoXIV #Tilltheend #safc

Has the UK become a nation of runners? A record 1.1m people have applied to take part in the 2026 London Marathon, after more than 90,000 people took on the London and Manchester marathons last Sunday- the largest day of marathon running ever in the UK. bbc.co.uk/sport/athletics/ar…

Powerful statement from @LutonTown and rightly so. 👏
We're angry, upset and frustrated to report that racist abuse has been directed towards Elijah Adebayo.

👏 Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council has taken control of the Golden Eagle in Thornaby, using funding from the Thornaby Town Deal. 🤝 The acquisition allows a key priority of the Town Deal Board to be realised and ends years of uncertainty about the eyesore building's future.

I feel seen.
me now that it’s officially autumn, bake off is back on, I can put all my candles on, it’s dark outside by 7pm, and I can get all cosy in bed without sweating to death #GBBO

Well said Fr 🫶🏼
Awful to hear that trouble makers have came to #Sunderland. Members of the Far-Right have gathered, manipulated by Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, (aka Tommy Robinson), who uses social media to lie and stoke the Islamophobia flame! I’m confident the vast majority of warm & welcoming Sunderland people will never be duped by the far right’s rampant hatred and bigotry. Together we stand!

Please share this link with journalists & editors, at Women’s Aid we run workshops on our media guidelines on reporting domestic abuse, which you can download here. There is also a link to the @we_level_up guidelines on reporting domestic homicides. womensaid.org.uk/about-us/pr…
Can we once and for all dispense with this tedious "But he always took the bins out and said hello" commentary, as if there was a contradiction here that needed explaining. Violent men ARE "nice guys". They're nice to everyone but the women they abuse. That's the whole point.
