If the rugby authorities allow the Six Nations to go behind a paywall next year it will be a massive own goal (or penalty try). Two terrific games today. If you want people to play rugby, keep showing them!

So Truss backs MAGA. Then later that day, he even loses the Express and Mail by calling Zelensky a dictator. Today she attended CPAC, where someone she has cited as a hero before, appears to have done what looks like a Nazi style salute. She's a walking disaster zone.

BRITISH PEOPLE: so, shoe sizes go up in halves to 13 and then start again at 1. Women’s clothes go up in 2s but using only even numbers. Height is in feet made up of 12 inches and weight is in stones made up of 14… ALIEN: are there any smarter animals we can talk to?
