Looks like Ancelotti might be on his way at Bayern.

Is Piers saying that in his favour or against him?

Couple of threads that might help illustrate the point:

It's been a bad day for the Hefner family but a good day for Twitter.

That's just called being a civilised human being.

Meanwhile, finally an analogy that Tory MPs will understand:

He secretly knows he's sold his children down the river, he needs to get something out of the whole thing.

They should insist we adopt the euro.

Yep

It's all right though, now we'll be freed from the shackles of the evil EU and can trade with the rest of the... wait what? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-41397181

I'd say the outrage in the immediate aftermath of the referendum far outweighed the Uber thing though, it's just that you can't sustain that level of anger or you'll go mad. Life has to go on even when the prospect of an open and prosperous Britain doesn't. ...

50% of the Royal Parks Half route isn't even in a park, yi knaa. These event organisers are all patent liars.

I heard he particularly liked his work in the field of cunning plans.

Erm, I think some of us have been outraged about this for over a year now... Still, nice to have the Telegraph on side. Let those dominoes fall.

The SMART Recovery group I went to for about nine months after kicking the drink (similar to AA, but rational and science-based rather than religious and self-pitying) involved a lot of stuff that's based on REBT and other Albert Ellis approaches, as well as plenty of what essentially amounted to group talking therapy I guess. Did a lot for me in terms of digging into learned behaviours, triggers and how to spot them, the arguments you tell yourself to justify your own behaviour, etc (as well as giving you a bit perspective vs other people's problems, which is never a bad thing really). Obviously I'm not saying you should fake an addictive behaviour and go along to one or anything (unless you want to - it does only cost a couple of quid in the pot every time, after all...), just throwing my hat into the ring as another example of someone who's benefited from that kind of thing. And I say that as someone who's always been a massive over-thinker and over-analyser, so it's not like I wasn't aware of my thoughts and feelings, but it's interesting to delve into the hidden processes that make you you.

And when you consider we've allowed the likes of wolfy back, that's some lunacy.

Unfortunately, it's far beyond the wit of that particular man.

Just signed up for next year's edition of this. Half slog, half tourism.

One of the problems with the system I suppose. No actual voice of opposition until campaign $ea$on.

Only if Labour can be dragged back to a slightly more centrist position without having to become ZaNu-LieBore!!1 again. It's increasingly clear that we can't have PM Corbyn and Britain in the EU or any arrangement that approximates it.

Hillary standing again would give Trump the best possible chance of a second term. But there is a notable vacuum at the top of the Democratic tree and that's something they need to deal with - there's been no unified voice coming out and condemning the Trump administration so far (partly because the nearest contender to HRC for the most recent nomination is someone just as old and implausible as a future president, rather than a new pretender who was narrowly defeated by a more experienced old hand and who could naturally step up now). I suppose they might be doing a Labour on Brexit and just sitting back and letting the whole thing implode rather than playing their hand too early, but I think more than anything, they're still absolutely in shock and don't know how to deal with what happened.

Perez doesn't know what size trousers he's supposed to fit in, never mind where he's supposed to be playing.
