Can you tell us how he died, where, and why?
Farewell to Suleiman al-Obeid, the 'Palestinian Pelé'. A talent who gave hope to countless children, even in the darkest of times.

The week in Tory MPs so far: one convicted of molesting a minor, another having to apologise for defending said paedophile, PM and chancellor convicted of breaking the COVID laws they wrote. And it’s only Fucking Tuesday.

Please RT if you would like me to consider standing against @Jacob_Rees_Mogg again, as an independent for one term only. As before, I would step aside if a better unity candidate emerges, or if @UKLabour & @LibDems decide to fight each other & I would only further split the vote.

Another Tory MP told me that in the tearoom the PM told him and colleagues 'it's not his fault and he's bravely taking the blame for others' - 'caused much consternation among colleagues' given that he'd just given a public apology

That same day ex-Health Sec Matt Hancock told us: “You can meet one other person from outside your household in an outdoor, public place. But please keep two metres apart. This weekend, with the good weather... don’t take risks.”

Comparing web apps to Electron isn't a fair comparison. Each Electron app is a whole browser running, but that isn't true with web apps which are multiple things running in the same browser. The introduction of more browser capabilities means _fewer_ Electron apps.

It’s the last night I’ll go to sleep knowing Donald Trump is the U.S. president. Tomorrow the world will become a safer, more hopeful place. #SweetDreams – at Hove, England

It's one year ago today since China reported the first death from a mysterious new disease. Officials said it was under control and would be nothing like the 2003 SARS outbreak which killed 770 people. The BBC's first TV report on the story aired a few hours later, early 12 Jan.

Inspired by ALDI's take on Punk IPA from yesterday, we are making a new beer. YALDI IPA is coming soon! Maybe our friends @AldiUK will even sell it in their stores? 😉
