THEY SAID WHAT?

-

“Rosie and I will be happy for the other whatever the result - even if bragging rights will be decided for the next four years” - Ken Marshall, originally from Johannesbu­rg, and his new wife Rosie will be cheering on rival sides in the Rugby World Cup final.

“The real deal is a Leave alliance that wins a big majority in Parliament. The real deal is a Leave alliance that delivers a genuine Brexit” - Nigel Farage calls on Boris Johnson to ditch his Brexit deal and form a ‘Leave alliance’.

“If people in Scotland demonstrat­e the desire – as I believe they will in this election – for an independen­ce referendum, then I don’t believe Westminste­r opposition to the principle or to the timetable to that will prove to be sustainabl­e” - Nicola Sturgeon says she would interpret a strong SNP result at the General Election as an endorsemen­t for another referendum.

“Social media is a tool, it’s neither good nor bad, but a lot of the time it’s used for a very vain pursuit in a superficia­l way. I’m trying to invade that space with faith, with positivity, with hope” - Rev Chris Lee, who has been compared to Fleabag’s “hot priest”, says he is trying to spread a message of hope on social media.

“I’m enormously grateful to the women who spoke up and exposed the harassment and the hostile work environmen­ts that they have experience­d. It really felt like a responsibi­lity that we had to help tell those stories but also to reveal the human side of it” - Reese Witherspoo­n speaks about the Me Too movement at a special screening of new Apple TV+ series The Morning Show.

“Your performanc­es during the tournament have delighted supporters, and inspired many people throughout the country. I send my congratula­tions to the England team, management and support staff on reaching the 2019 Rugby World Cup Final, together with my very best wishes for a memorable and successful match” - The Queen sends a good luck message to England’s Rugby World Cup team.
