In all my time saving dogs I think Hope was the one that was most broken. She was completely shut down and acted like a rock. To see her today is a thing of pure beauty (1/10) 🧵

More Burnley history … Mark Carney the first Canadian PM ever to have been in the Turf Moor tunnel .. and the first to be an Everton fan. Added to which he is a top bloke and dead smart. Canada has chosen well and Trump should STFU with his 51st state BS

Good river news: money in the Water Restoration Fund will, after all, be used for river restoration & water-quality amelioration rather than dissolved into the wider Treasury spend. Less good: only £11m was imposed in fines by Ofwat on water companies in 22-23. www.theguardian.com/environment/...
