🚨 Thomas Müller on Jonathan Tah’s disallowed goal against Paraguay:

🗣️ “I honestly don’t know what VAR is looking at anymore. What a call is that? The goalkeeper must be the luckiest player on the pitch because, from everything I’ve seen, Germany have scored a perfectly legitimate goal. Jonathan Tah attacked the ball brilliantly, won it fairly and finished with authority. That’s football. That should never have been taken away.”

“We, the Germans, feel used and cheated. This is wrong. This is daylight robbery on the biggest stage in football. If that’s a foul, then football has completely lost its consistency because we’ve seen far stronger challenges allowed all tournament. The referee and VAR have searched for something that simply isn’t there.”

“You work your whole life to play at a World Cup, you fight for every ball, you finally score what could be the winning goal, and then someone sitting in a room hundreds of metres away decides to erase that moment over a decision that millions of people will disagree with. That’s heartbreaking for every player on that pitch.”

“I can accept losing to the better team. I can accept missing chances. But I cannot accept having a perfectly good goal taken away because of an interpretation that nobody understands. Germany deserve better than this, and football deserves better than this. Right now, it feels like we’ve been punished by technology instead of protected by it.”

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”(Philippians 4:6-7)

Poilievre, speaking near the remnants of the Berlin Wall, invoked Ronald Reagan:

"Freedom is only one generation away from extinction. We must ensure that our generation carries the torch of freedom so we can pass on to our grandchildren what our grandparents delivered to us."

[Bundeskanzler Friedrich Merz @bundeskanzler]

Good to see you again, @POTUS.
Difficult times call for strong partnerships.

Iran spreads terror. This endangers our partners - and us. We share a clear interest in putting an end to all this.

[Visegrád 24 @visegrad24]

Merz on some European leaders criticizing the U.S. airstrikes against Iran:

“Now isn’t the moment to lecture our partners and allies.

Despite all doubts, we share many of their objectives, even if we ourselves aren’t capable of actually achieving them”

[Liberal Democrats @LibDems]

Keir Starmer says everyone in the UK will be required to have mandatory digital ID. That’s not the kind of country we want to be.

Liberal Democrats have always stood up to defend civil liberties against government overreach.

We will fight tooth and nail to oppose these plans too.

Would this be mad?

HS4: Plymouth-Exeter-Bristol-Oxford-London.

Bristol to Oxford in half an hour would be insanely pro-growth. Plymouth to Bristol in 45 minutes would be transformational for the South West. And plugging it all in to London is just turbo charging the lot.

Good. Finally a responsible reform of this broken system.

[Politics UK @PolitlcsUK]

🚨 NEW: The Government is considering each of the following in a 'radical overhaul' of the benefits system

- Stricter eligibility for Personal Independence Payments (PIP), particularly for mental health conditions like anxiety and depression
- Requring claimants to provide routine medical evidence instead of an assessment for PIP
- Requring the long-term sick to look for work with a reduction in sickness benefit payments to encourage this
- Abolishing the 'Limited Capability for Work or Work-Related Activity' (LCWRA) category, potentially cutting £5,000 per year for claimants
- Scrapping the Work Capability Assessment (WCA) and aligning with PIP assessments
- Shifting from regular PIP payments to one-off payments or means-testing
- Introducing a 'duty to engage' with employment services, including job preparation and training

Vouchers for specific equipment or aids instead of cash payments have been ruled out

Out of the EU, the government has full control over migration.

The Tories could have introduced visa caps. Labour still could.

Mass migration is not inevitable or unstoppable, but it is a political choice for which our leaders must answer at the ballot box.

But... global warming.

[Bruges Group 🇬🇧 @BrugesGroup]

Net Migration to the UK was 606,000 in 2022.

The government has full control over the issuance of visas.

If the Tories refuse to exercise control, we need to elect a party which will.

Poland boasts a growing economy, rapidly rising wages and living standards, falling taxes, strong armed forces and a secure border.

It is probably the best-governed country in Continental Europe.

But because the gov. is conservative, this is the tripe the media serves up 👇

[RPL @11rpl10]

Good.

[Rishi Sunak @RishiSunak]

It’s clear the American XL Bully dog is a danger to our communities.

I’ve ordered urgent work to define and ban this breed so we can end these violent attacks and keep people safe.

[RPL @11rpl10]

Having crossed this land border myself, I would strongly support such a move. There is no reason why two countries sharing a common border should not be able to abolish checks by mutual agreement.

A fantastic view of #Tbilisi #georgia on a hot summer’s day!

[RPL @11rpl10]

A very welcome development. Of all the places I have been, only the Netherlands and Israel have such a system. Hopefully it can be deployed nationwide in a not-too-distant future!

The train chaos around #Amsterdam yesterday and today highlights the issues with a 'single point of failure' system. That's one thing London does better: with 6 airports (more or less) and God knows how many train stations, such a situation would be all but impossible.

[RPL @11rpl10]

The Elizabeth Line is now London's most used Tube line. Am I the only one who still prefers getting the Piccadilly to go to Heathrow?
