Schriftleitergesetz, again www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
Currently getting ready to fly home from Portugal. I don't need HRT but Ryanair induces all sorts of rage
As per yesterday. Their front page only allowing comments on 2 stories - one about autumn and the obligatory race-bait immigration story. Do they think we can't see them for what they are?
Season tickets were a minority thing. Football wasn't a pleasant or family day out.
In broad daylight, in Flensburg, Germany, today in 2025 “JEWS Are banned from here!!! Nothing personal, Also not antisemitic, just can't stand you”
BBC News front page. Which is the story they've allowed racist comments on?
Has Melania joined witness protection?

It's corrupt as fuck, that.
The files don't exist* Yes they do*
Today we laid to rest the South African soldier recovered during the Hill 80 project. With his reburial, the last of the men we found has now received a final resting place. More than 100 missing soldiers have been recovered and honoured thanks to the support of so many.
There's no civil war coming to the UK. Just an implosion of far right politics as Reform and Advance UK work hard to undermine each other. If only the government had the balls to point out the rifts
Well, as I finally got to see their memorial a few days ago, I thought it was timely to add a piece to the Long, Long Trail about the Wagoners Special Reserve. See "Who were the Wolds Wagoners?" at www.longlongtrail.co.uk/wolds-wagone...
Perhaps they should just remake English Civil War or White Man in Hammersmith Palais "All over people changin' their votes along with their overcoats. If Adolf Hitler flew in today, they'd send a limousine anyway"
Does that sort of thing happen these days like it did when we were kids?
Starmer should be pointing out that Saturday was a bold symbol of the far right being ready to eat itself, and that Reform faces more threats from there than anywhere. Farage is establishment toast if Musk has his way. Labour needs to sharpen up, pronto, to be ready for the division of the right
NORMANDY 1944 You can find a range of my original paintings telling stories of the Normandy summer of 1944. If you’re interested in acquiring any of these please purchase them via my webshop or drop me a DM to discuss. Find them all here: timgodden.co.uk/shop/p/norma... #ww2 #illustration
Did he not see the anti-Farage/Reform march in London on Saturday?
Today's massive show of force for Tommy Robinson - a long-time street thug - will exacerbate far right divisions. Robinson is a rival of Nigel Farage who's disavowed him and refuses to campaign for him or allow him into Reform UK. There are many people in Reform UK who'd like to embrace Robinson.
He's as weak as piss. But I suspect you know that
He'll end forming a coalition with Nigel's lot when Tiny Toms lot turn the fascist horde on Reform
The Plunkett Prize exhibition is up at Hungate. It’s open as part of Heritage Open Days, nip in if you can, fab venue, so many good pieces of work to appreciate. Thanks to everyone who entered and supported the endeavour, and congrats to all shortlisted, runners up and the winners.
🟩🟨 How the heck did that just happen? Let's nab the point and move on. ▪️Lampard & Cov fans pissed off ✔️ ▪️An unlikely point ✔️ ▪️Couldn't string two passes together ✖️ LINK: norwichcity.myfootballwriter.com/2025/09/14/h... #ncfc
Interesting to watch the splintering of the far right yesterday - Musk and Yaxley Lennon and Advance UK trying to shift control of the noise away from Reform and Farage. Restore Britain & Rupert Lowe in the shadows. A far right power struggle, just like the one that killed Kirk in Utah.
The Beatle
The lack of discourse in their politics has created a right wing void where the battle is to be the loudest and most extreme. It's a competitive spiral of hate. I wonder if Trump has started to worry if he's next
Because they're mental....
He'll be a saint by the end of the week
Swallowed it whole. We're going to get full coverage of his state funeral too
BBC has gone full maga with this Kirk coverage
When the Vikings were trading in Russia they got infiltrated by disinformation bots, hence the mixed messaging...
I'm sure Pagan warriors didn't have Christian Nationalist Conservatives on the guest list...

Had cause to look at this again today. Nice piece of work, if I say so myself! www.longlongtrail.co.uk/gazetteer-of...
FBI "we're not going to release the pictures because we've got lots of other good leads and we're confident" One hour later.... FBI "here's the pictures"
It seems the word 'conservative' has a lot of heavy lifting to do in US politics
As the MSM remembers Charlie Kirk and speaks out against his horrific assassination, let’s recall the Minnesota Congresswoman who was assassinated on June 14th 2025 along with her husband and their dog. Do you even remember her name?!
Trump has the reading and comprehension skills of a 6 year old
I know of an armed police officer who let one go in the hq armoury and it went through the ceiling and lodged in the underside of a desk in the office above....
Last night the Polish airspace was violated by a huge number of Russian drones. Those drones that posed a direct threat were shot down. I am in constant communication with the Secretary General of NATO and our allies.
I've got a soft spot for the 55th West Lancs Division, as they were alongside my great grandfather at Cambrai. He's also an MM holder
Interesting thing is, he did something on 1st March 1917 worthy of that mention. The location is difficult to read but the war diaries might reveal more
'for gallantry and dedication to duty in the field'
Probably a Common Darter taking a break on my hoe handle
Not sure we've reached the bottom yet. Part of me wants Reform to win, just to demonstrate they're no different to anything else and indeed worse
Pigs in the trough. Again. Reform and Farage are currently fighting hard to get their noses in it. They don't care about us. None of them care about us.
Tonight is the 85th anniversary of so many WW1 records being destroyed. #otd #ww1 #geneaology See www.longlongtrail.co.uk/the-1940-fir...

My son in law runs that factory 👍
My family tree ends there, in 1601.
Did it wake you up 😂
Haven't seen it, didn't miss it....
Thank you!
Yellow dot marks the apparent original burial spot of Joseph Champs, 23 Battery RFA, 18th July 1916. I very much like the look of the French map👍
Is there an original high definition source for that sheet? I've just produced a report for a family about a man killed in that section (British grid gave almost the exact spot) and is buried in Dantzig Alley Cemetery
It's Beverley Turner from GB News
“Farage claimed last year to have “bought a house” in his constituency but the property is actually owned in the name of his partner, meaning he legally avoided higher-rate stamp duty on the purchase of an additional home – given he already owns other properties” www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
Do you remember when Hermes were so bloody useless they had to rebrand as Evri? The Tories are the same budget cat food, but in a different can...
There's always a tweet....
"It's like a jungle sometimes It makes me wonder how I keep from goin' under"
My genealogy is like that. One family surname with fathers, sons, brothers, cousins &:uncles living in one village and using a selection of two first names. Hilarious. Then 6 generations ago I found out they were on both sides of the tree 😬😂
Wake me up when the last Tory has rebranded themselves as Reform. It's been the longest civil war in political history
Reckon her Onlyfans has been a flop, or perhaps they're making Carry On Enoch
I'm close to deploying Monty Python on this
😂
Rep. Jamie Raskin tears into Nigel Farage as a "far-right pro-Putin politician" and a "Donald Trump sycophant and wannabe".
Ask them if they're a robot and see what answer you get 😉
On this day in 1939 Britain entered the war against Germany Yesterday mindless right wing Farage thugs defaced a war memorial to those men and women who died The thought he might one day lay a wreath of poppies at the cenotaph makes me sick
Quisling
I don't like this billionaire bingo thing, but apparently their owners have a combined wealth of about $300m. That lot down the road vaunted $10.8b AUM. Attanasio is apparently worth $1.9b, Ressler less; but their combined AUM is $50b. I guess Hollywood makes you noisy....
When you look at how they are going about it, it's worth thinking about how wealthy our owners are. I guess it's the difference between business people and celebrities running clubs
I asked one of them if they were a robot and got a pregenerated response effectively saying yes

Dragon House in York was defaced with racist graffiti last week, targeting a family who’ve been part of their community for over ten years. One window cleaner from Crystal Clean Services stepped up to clear the abuse.
When I had my stroke my left leg went a bit numb; much like the Labour party....
Anyone know if Sarge is on a plane mid Atlantic? #NCFC
Morning! Plenty still to look out for on transfer deadline day - futures of Anis Ben Slimane and Shane Duffy to be sorted, with activity likely in #NCFC’s development squad. Could there be any added twists and turns? If so we’ll have them covered here 👇 www.pinkun.com/sport/norwic...
This c*nt lives in the states now
These racist old carcasses, and the demographic they come from, often spend their last days and hours hoovering up kindness from 'foreigners.' Their faces need remembering when the ambulance tips them into the hospital
If a politician can tell us he's planning to round up 650,000 people and deport them, with the government barely batting an eyelid, can you wonder that racists are emboldened
Cardiac arrested more like
All I remember is being cold and being more interested in sweets than the football. I went to a couple of reserve games and the odd game before the 1970/71 season and almost became a regular
🟩🟨 A win for pride and honour. Sarge and Vlad... we salute you. I promise this is my last mention of a gurning Chilean Del Boy tribute act. LINK norwichcity.myfootballwriter.com/2025/08/31/a-w… #ncfc
