Have they hired the advisors that told Sunak to stand in the rain?š¤
I think they will take a percentage of the gate money and the TV money. If you allow more entrants, then you have more games and more revenue. The point about Eastern European teams means we now have 11 (?) more nation states than in 1990. Some have great teams - Croatia the most obvious 1
As the Vietcong won, he should be wearing Vietnamese garb, and it's not a film about the USA's 'greatness'
Yes, exactly the same. There is no sense of jeopardy, which is a big part of the emotional pull. The Balkanization of parts of Europe also mean we have more nations, but weaker teams. Principalities - not convinced they should be a part of it, but it's more filthy lucre for UEFA/FIFA
Yes
Cancer research have stated since at least 2015 that one in two people (born from 1960 onwards) will contract cancer. I find it remarkable that people even report on this man, and many other cranks that feature in modern life.
Jesus Christ
They need to start making the agenda, rather than follow it
I am sure Vietnam, Cambodia and Loas appreciate the US military's wokeyness
We have SSRI's in the UK, and doubtless many countries. We do not have chronic gun violence in the UK
Aren't they refusing to process several thousand Afghanis, but also, small thanks, will not return them to Afghanistan? (Maybe resolved and I missed it)
A real pity for lots of reasons
It's horrible
Your weekly reminder that voter "concern" with immigration doesn't correspond to actual immigration levels. It corresponds to the amount of coverage the media gives immigration. This an entirely self-fulfilling mess, and it is entirely pointless.
Cranks R Us
When you see this shit you can't help feeling we get the country we deserve
Meanwhile in Russia: Vladimir Solovyov and his guests boasted that Donald Trump's and Tulsi Gabbard's recent actions were directly related to the exchanges between Trump and Putin in Alaska. This and more in my latest article, linked below ā¤µļø www.youtube.com/watch?v=VCXr...
At some venues you can now pay extra to get a souvenir ticket, it feels like getting mugged
Bill Beaumont to replace Melvyn? Haha
I think dogmatism takes many forms and that Starmer's bureaucratic managerialism is one form of dogma. Actually, I take his palpable vacuity as evidence of that. This is not a man who analyses or thinks. He definitely "believes" in things, in that he takes certain ways of doing things for granted
Britain is not a country of racist bigots. Time for the decent majority to "take back control". Repost if you agree.
Less than 100 years ago Hitler rose to power. In the UK we are frequently taught about how fascism came about. The BBC has a series called "The rise of the Nazis", and yet so many of those lessons are being thrown on the bonfire. The German establishment thought they could control Hitler, WRONG
but there is a growing sense that he needs to win something this year, and getting it other the line is not quite there (I am a Liverpool fan)
There is sense in that, I feel that the I am more inclined to agree with the view Arsenal could have taken more chances. Konate & Kerkez had 2 poor games, there's been more significant change in the LFC team, and this was an opportunity to take the game to them. Arteta has done very well 1
Parliament reopened today, but Nigel Farage was in Washington DC on his 10th trip to the US since becoming an MP. You don't get to earn Ā£1m from 12 jobs by wasting time on what is meant to be your full time role.
Well, they won the cup and beat my team in the CS. We have bagged a brilliant player from you, although that sounds touch and go. Good luck for the season (Guehi is staying until at least January)
Do you like lost causes?
Besides the Mirror, there is no significant organisation pushing back. Also: 1. It is heartbreaking, but i am lucky as a white Brit 2. The media have massively mis represented this 3. The lessons of history are being ignored 4. Immigration has made my life better 5. Fuck fascism
I would say bring it back in your 'solo' week, but, I suspect budgets say no
very few mention it to me, and the people who do definitely do not want to lose rights
Lots of 'content' for the team to go over during the Internationals, ideally not re-reading how XY&Z signed for/didn't sign for the reds
Likewise Yoane Wissa
Sorry fella, this has been long discussed in the UK, and most people acknowledge it was created in the UK. Nobody is doubting its origins. In the late 1990's Chicken Tikka Masala was named by the then UK Foreign Secretary as "Britain's true national dish" (2001)
Money? Other top European teams cannot afford his salary? For Ederson - a new tattoo artist for his neck?
It is a horrible place
I often think that the UK will not limit twit world until the EU act first, as we are too scared of 47 to act alone. Some of that fear is real more because of the economic threat from 47
I have proposed before that smol boys of age 7-12 should be consulted on the correct insults to use. They know exactly how to hit where it hurts. Once their term is over, we hand over to the teenage girls age 12-15 for pure violence.
Pear shaped comes to mind, you were fun to watch last season
I know super-rich CEOs have always had an asshole streak, but I really do believe we're dealing with the new genetic strain here, one that doesn't even pretend to be a normal human
How he gets on TV beggars belief
That's horrific, it needs to be stopped. That is the lesson of history
It falls on Fulham, the disallowed Fulham goal is off the scale, and then all of Cheshire's salt poured into/onto the 'injury' time. Not a Fulham fan, but angry for football and sympathy to Fulham fans
More of this: Liverpool alley report by BBC And less of this please: West London demonstration - Guardian report www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025... www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
I hope they have been arrested
Weāre not safe. Watch this. All of this. The man gives a Nazi salute.
That can present its own problems: "DickMarx" is not a tempting name for kitchens
Excuse my lack of eloquence, they are all fucked in the head
A> the shit bread she talks about - It's still on sale B> if sourdough dominates, then that's the market baby
An ideologue screams into the void If they get all the gas and all out, a decent percentage of that will be very expensive to extract(?)
Bunch of freaks and lunatics
Oh god
Cancelled my membership that day, someone else commented they had done the same
It is the young who were betrayed the most 2010 - 2024...
Get in the sea, Robbie Gibb
Yes, the English press are doing everything but light the match
Yes, the RW media needs a Prevent referral
I had that 2 days ago, after a donation
Reform will have to reselect in Croydon, as their initial candidate for Mayor had been dead for 6 months when they selected her, Inside Croydon report Being dead is one way to pass the social media vetting but was likely to get noticed eventually insidecroydon.com/2025/08/27/f...
Democracy as it we knew it is over in the USA, and the world's leaders are too scared to call it out
The public still seem ignorant of the hell that is growing
Man Utd resemble an exhausted horror movie franchise www.theguardian.com/football/202...
Making fascism and stupidity into 'edgy zeitgeist' nuggets
Fascism
That is a ridiculously simplified view. Versailles was a disaster, and the splits on the left didn't help, but there is more to it
That's brilliant
Which Labour MP is Oliver Glasner?
Jesus
Three of those have led to heartache, one is capable of mirth on nights like this I think Amorim is on a short shelf life now
I was listening, brilliant excitement, what a rollercoaster
It's both hilarious and not
Or the millions who turned out for carnivals up and down the country. NH is the obvious one, but Leeds had good turnout for their carnival and there's probably others. People celebrating life and culture, that's where i want to be
Nationwide, 4,000 racists had major news organisations live blogging, which is essentially an irrelevant number. Makes me sick
The discourse in the UK makes me feel sick on a daily basis
I would have said his gob is a bit more muted now, is welcome, but the psycho voices from further to the right have taken over
He's the head of the 'five families', so from now on please address him as The Godfather, haha
Yes, other than that, I am baffled. And my blood is boiling - not just the failure of the media to address this, but their connivance and support
Fed Up of the negativity and the normalisation of fascism? Do something positive - Give Blood, save a life, get yerself a cup of tea and a biscuit
You can probably watch BBC's "Rise of the Nazi's" on iPlayer for 'irony'
haha
The RW media needs a prevent referral, they are completely off their nuts. 4,000 racists, at most, turned up to the nationwide racist demonstrations at the weekend - it had rolling coverage. Mental country
On one bill from a US hospital, they tried to charge a patient $30 because the nurse asked the patient if she was ok? (They appealed this charge, and won). Off the scale
It's prominence says a lot about that paper
Pretty much all of Europe has shopped shipping anything to the USA worth over Ā£100.00 (that figure is from UK Royal Mail)
Imagine having failed to contain their many evil behaviour's the web has facilitated and encouraged, and then this thing is allowed out with limited or non existent rules
I cancelled my membership today, because of this
You didn't block me, so I gave you a follow
Thanks!
100% agree Hitler got to power on 33% of the vote
Cancelled my membership today, if they will not push back on 'invasion' and 'risk of public disorder', they are not for me
Paying people for returns - would some governments encourage this? The states mentioned are generally very skint, easy money, so sending people to Europe can be a revenue raiser
Yes, thanks: No 10 refused, however, to criticise other elements of Farageās speech, including his references to irregular migration as an āinvasionā and a āscourgeā, as well as his prediction that Britain is ānot far away from major civil disorderā.
Thanks, I am in the UK and needed this too
I suspect that zero rights is the agenda
Cancelled my membership
1. It is limited 2. Other parties are putting out statements by named MPs 3. Read what Wilson said after Powell's rivers speech 4. Is anything like that coming from the Labour party? 5. Hitler gained power on 33% of the vote, because people thought the could control him
I was below average, by quite a few million
My sentiments to.
Cancelled my membership
It is little succor to you and millions more, but I have cancelled my Labour Party membership because of this
