#TrendingLiverpool – What has been happening this week? – 4th July

Another week! Where does the time go? On the internet everyone has been saying the same, it’s July already and we are right in the middle of Summer! It has well and truly crept up on us hasn’t it?

Anyway! What has been going on? For most of the week the news has focused on the Labour “coup” and subsequent leadership challenge, England being knocked out of the Euros by Iceland and also loads of other funny stuff. Here are 11 of our favourite tweets this week!

Joe Hart was not well liked on twitter this week..

Love, the Scousers.

This is a lasting legacy..

Fundamentally, Hodgson will always be the same manager who once spent money on Paul Konchesky.

I have never been to a houseparty that isn’t like this..

Parties are just a place you go to have people aggressively recommend TV shows to you that you’ll never watch.

The Torys were not far from the spotlight either..

If Theresa May becomes PM, the UK will become a surveillance state quicker than you can say ‘microphones in the Shredded Wheat’.

JK Rowling drew inspiration from Dumbledore for the Labour leadership, prompting response..

Boris Johnson left the leadership race, leading to many tweets.. This one summarises them all I feel..

RIP Boris’s political career. Let’s not forget your achievements: Building a cable car nobody uses and then ruining literally everything.

Liverpool this week held a pro-Corbyn rally, in which thousands of people turned out in support for Labour leader, here is the crowds flowing down College lane and into Paradise Street.
