Former US President Jimmy Carter has died, aged 100. In 1976, while a presidential candidate, he spoke to The Old Grey Whistle Test's 'Whispering' Bob Harris in Macon, Georgia, about rock music and its cultural influence.

I don’t think some of you get how big this is. @elonmusk, who claims to have bought Twitter and made it into @X for “freedom of speech” has hidden my viral thread on my own experiences as a child and marked it “unavailable”. Is anyone in the press going to talk about this?

Now this is what legacy looks like. I wish more former presidents would follow Carter's example rather than just cashing in on the speaking circuit.

It is with enormous sadness that I have resigned from my role as president of the RSPCA . I would like to register my respect and admiration for all the staff and volunteers who work tirelessly to protect animals from cruelty . Thank you thetimes.com/article/100c3f4…

It is beyond disappointing that Liz Kendall has rejected any compensation for the WASPI women. First, the government cuts winter fuel. Now this? Whose side is the government on? WASPI women have been disgracefully cheated out of their pensions — and they deserve justice.

Reform UK leader @Nigel_Farage says “We need to leave the ECHR so we can deport people that come illegally & take back control of our borders & that’s what the public wants” RT if you disagree with his populist boll**** the UK should join Russia & Belarus outside the ECHR

Empire of the Kop sources have obtained footage (now widely circulated online) of video clips which appear to show David Coote indulging in a foul-mouthed rant about Jurgen Klopp in which he repeatedly used inflammatory language to defame the ex-Liverpool manager:

2 out of every 3 frontline NHS staff don’t have access to a staff room We think it’s completely unacceptable for staff to work such long shifts, on their feet, without appropriate rest facilities Please repost if you agree

The only reason to stay on Twitter is so we can keep calling it Twitter and of course to be nice, but never antagonistic, to @Michael1979 .
Anyone else notice how dentists these days never talk about the causes of the Austro-Turkish War of 1663 when performing major procedures? Would be very interesting to find out why that is.

Apparently, Reform Ltd, and Andy Wigmore, don't like this screenshot of Mango Shitgibbon Trump, and Herr Fuhrage, being shown around Twitter, so please don't repost, or download and post it. 🐢💨
