They call it GB News to make it sound patriotic.

It’s owned by Australians.

It’s based in the Dubai tax haven

It’s managed by New Zealanders.

The only British bit are the fools watching.

@arlowhite I’m not sure it’s all entirely related to football. Look how badly the UK does in the Eurovision Song Contest these days (ok, the songs are bad but so are the rest). I think politics plays a part, plus the perceived arrogance, particularly in the media (it’s coming home?)

@ste1jones @chris_pimblett Likewise, thankfully never clicked on them

In 1997/98, whilst helping @EvertonWomen secure their first league title, Andrea McGrady (@toffeebird9) was fretting about the potential relegation of the men’s team. Now a season ticket holder at @EvertonStadium , I interviewed her for @EvertonHeritage :

@prodnose We’re not through yet, Danny (and neither are they)

[Count Binface @CountBinface]

I can neither confirm nor deny that Robert Jenrick has asked to defect to the Count Binface Party. I can confirm that the answer's no.

@vinerbrian @BBCSport The only opinions that matter about JP are from his manager and from fellow goalkeepers.

[Supertanskiii @supertanskiii]

The beauty of what’s happening in UK politics isn’t just Farage having his thunder stolen from all directions. The Binface saga is proving what Britain is REALLY about and it’s not the shit sold by the far right… True Britishness is, at its heart, about MERCILESS pisstaking.

@p____67 A) England won’t play Egypt - they’re out
B) England haven’t made the final yet - two very difficult hurdles to overcome. But thanks for having confidence in us.
C) Nobody ever talks about the run to the final once you’re there.
D) What do Scotland know about reaching finals?

[Blackrod Blue @blackrodblue]

Farage and Reform had a lot to say about Labour and @andyburnham triggering a by election in Makerfield. Yet they are now doing a very similar thing in Clacton. Total hypocrisy.

[Jon Sopel @jonsopel]

People versus the establishment?
Are you kidding?
Nigel Farage is the son of a stockbroker who went to Dulwich College and then follows his dad into the city, gets gifted millions, promotes crypto and gold bullion, been in politics for decades - he IS the establishment
