Theresa May delivered this line on Marr this morning to the question what course of action did Mr Trump recommend to you with respect to the EU. "Sue Them"

I have to answer my work phone unlike my personal one - although external calls is questionable - I usually can see who is calling but you never know - but I hang up the moment I hear it starts the usual. Ti be honest I dislike the ones trying to get my bosses name worst.

I don't answer calls I don't know the number of - they can leave a message if its important or text me. Answering calls is so noughties :) Edit: Someone from Sunderland calls regularly every 2 days - the number of rings has fallen though.

Many of us have worked with people like Trump who like to cause chaos and destroy the current consensus - They are usually brought in to do a job (break down the current status quo so a new one can be set n place) then they're gone. They aren't builders.

Is there a hint they over trained then ? maybe look at nutrition and that whole wind down thing after the match. -

If the coach has to spend time getting the players fit they shouldn't be there. -
:) At least Trump hasn't commented .... yet

He is such a douche bag. His interview in the Sun makes it clear to me why we should remain in the EU. I don't want his chlorinated chicken deal.

No anger about England's exit that I saw and in the past there would have been a fall guy (even Beckham played this role once, and had to sneak back into the country in a black beanie hat) -

Maybe Natty could replace the malfunctioning Bot in No10 -
Send an old fashioned letter by recorded delivery maybe ?

I think Thai people may have a solution ... "Coach Nop said Ake may be asked to go back to being a monk for a while, something Thais typically do as a kind of penance, or to replenish or cleanse themselves spiritually." https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-44799779

Trump walked into NATO all full of bluster but seems to have quietened down a bit - maybe General Kelly had a word. But he really can't help himself .... "Asked whether he will tweet a different message after the press conference, he replies that he will not, and that he is consistent. "I am a very stable genius," he adds."

Was mostly neutral but would have liked an England versus France final for the rivalry - as Roy Keane said they got ahead of themselves. Gareth Southgate tried to downplay the politics and the fans were OK, there were many positives, but as a Dutch barman said to me yesterday the press can turn non English people off England. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2018/jul/11/croatia-motivated-lack-of-respect-england-luka-modric -

I told them it wasn't coming home but nobody listened. They're listening now. -

I assumed they just kept backing up as the waters rose (squeezing through the tiny tunnels)

@tnewtondunn on twitter "Arriving at #NATOSummit, Trump offers his hand to Theresa May - who doesn?t shake it but introduces him to Jeremy Hunt instead. Purposeful snub to avenge Turmoil-gate, or just a social bungle?"
