👀 BEST GOAL EVER SCORED? 👀
Watch @TayLawrence10 hit this volley from the half way line with the winning goal to beat league leaders Little Oakley at Woodside Stadium this afternoon.
Has a better goal ever been scored in the history of non-league football… we think not!
Keir Starmer lied to win the Labour leadership.
Lied his way into office.
Lied about the 'far-right'.
Lied about Southport.
Lied about the £22bn black hole.
Lied about freezing energy bills.
Lied about raising taxes.
All this robotic pillock does is lie.
The man is a disgrace!
