Not happy that @whiskas_uk have decided to reduce their pouch size from 100g to 85g without changing the price of their 40 pouch packs. You’re doing me out of 6 pouches at that weight! Will be moving brands considering every other pouch is still 100g! #catfood #whiskas

I appreciate commentators in the #womensrugbyworldcup telling people to go to the Find Rugby website to find their local clubs. However, where are all the bloody clubs!? @EnglandRugby sort it out! #womensrugby #rugby #worldcupfinal

One of the most sensible takes on ‘cancel culture’ I’ve seen. Sensible, honest, smart. I’m posting the video directly as Times Radio tweeted it with a clickbait and somewhat misleading headline that unintentionally confirmed his point. More of this please.

A really well put together thread by @YorkRILadies about the inclusion of trans women in rugby teams. I’d be interested in the @RFU response. #womensrugby #inclusion

Our tweets about trans inclusion have gained a bit of traction, and we're conscious that there is a lot of conflicting information out there at current, so we thought we'd do a bit of mythbusting ahead of the vote on Friday 🧵

#6: Add citations. Adding citations manually is painful. Instead, do it quickly in Word. • References tab > 'insert citations' • Add the details • It'll appear in your doc Next time just click 'citations', and choose that same one again. Simple.

A statement from our President in response to recent comments from the former Universities Minister

Universities and Students’ Unions should be proud of commitments being made to race equality and in reducing barriers for ethnic minority students.

I gather polio is transmitted via faecal contamination, food, water. Good job we haven't spent 5.7 million hours dumping sewage into England's rivers over the last couple of years then. How's that plan working out @DefraGovUK @EnvAgency @pow_rebecca? mirror.co.uk/news/politics/b…
