Do they think people have literally no memory of past events at all?

If I were Starmer I'd be fairly relaxed about Blair having a pop at me on this issue...

Not quite sure where to start with this one. Can somebody please sit down with him and gently tell him about World Wars I and II?
Thanks awfully.

Last saw TB sitting in the front row while Trump launched his β€œBoard of Peace” in Davos, so yeah, that figures.

So dark and unhinged. The Trump regime is dropping thousands of bombs for clicks.

If you’re not horrified by this you have lost the thread.

He did very well. Left sided centre back in a three is a role he can do. I don’t think he can play anywhere else

"I said it's quite bold of Nigel Farage to go to the US to side with Donald Trump against his own country. What did I say Roy?"

Don’t know.

We’re a bit short of centre backs now. I wonder if we can/will recall Callum Perry from loan #pusb

What got me was how shameless Wolfenden’s pretence at being injured was. He sprang up and sprinted away. A bit later, Eccles at least limped for a few seconds after pretending to be injured

Did well in the second half.

Jay Dasilva played well but I am more convinced he will never score after his shocking miss late on #pusb

Whatever you personally think of trans people, in general young people are much more accepting and supportive of trans people than older people are. Many of them have close friends who are trans. Most really don’t think things like the toilet issue are problems.

Kitching would seem better than Wolfenden against Sinclair Armstrong #pusb

I would also hope that prisoners can reform, no matter how evil their crime was.

We don't have the death penalty here for many reasons, including the possibility of wrongful convictions. It is therefore imperative that prison time should never become a death sentence via tolerance of violent conditions; however beyond doubt the crimes of any one man may be, this remains true.

It’s not a special relationship where one partner is manipulative, controlling, and one side feels they can’t distance or leave it.

That’s what the USA and UK have right now.

Why Labour is so scared of the Green Party | The News Agents New polling shows the Green Party closing on Reform’s lead in popularity with UK voters, despite growing right-wing attacks on the party and its surging numbers. Is Labour struggling to respond to a…

Keir Starmer describes the Green Party as extreme – but that might make sense if Hannah Spencer hadn't won the recent by-election on a cost of living message.

"When it was Reform winning, he treated those voters with respect," says Lewis Goodall

One does not have to be β€˜left wing’ to recognise what a disaster Farage would be for this country.

Really hope Onyeka is fit- Knight and Randell are very energetic and Torp is out of form - I would play Eccles if Onyeka is out but Lampard doesn’t seem to like him deeper.

BBC1 6pm flagship news show. Starmer makes a major statement on the attack on Iran, the BBC get reaction from 3 national party leaders. Spot which party is missing?
Clue: they won a by election last week, have been above the Lib Dems in polls for ages.

History is going to judge McSweeney very badly for being so close to this

Just shows how much contempt Reform has for their own supporters. This is a policy that helps the kids of the wealthy educated liberal elites they claim to despise. And would harm the types of constituency they do well in.

Why is it that all those staunch UK patriots waving flags and shouting about β€˜taking back control’ are urging us to be subservient to a foreign power and join them in an illegal war?
