just a reminder that there are cities like dubai and abu dhabi, literally built in a desert, that keep their grass green all year round.
we’re an island surrounded by water where it rains most of the year.
we haven’t built a new reservoir since 1992 and added ten million people. this is a choice. we loathe building infrastructure
🚨🇲🇦 NEW: FIFA President Gianni Infantino has promised Morocco the right to host the 2030 World Cup final if they back his leadership
It comes after a dispute between Spain and Morocco over whether the final should be staged at the Bernabéu or Morocco’s new Hassan II Stadium

What happened to wanting immigrants to assimilate, integrate and embrace the culture? 😂 honestly the problem with ignorant, uneducated people which this and many platforms have been empowering over the last decade or so is they actually have no idea what they want nor do they have a tangible end goal
Will you be posting about their return to Morocco and the raft that none have reached the European mainland? Or does that not fit your narrative. Vote Binface
🚨 FA statement on Chelsea.
"A financial sanction of £10 million and a suspended two-window registration ban have been imposed on Chelsea FC for breaches of The Football Association [The FA] Football Agent Regulations, Regulations on Working with Intermediaries and Third Party Investment in Players Regulations.
"The FA charged Chelsea FC with 74 breaches of FA Rule E1.2 after its current ownership self-reported misconduct upon its purchase of the club. The FA is continuing to investigate individual misconduct arising out of this case.
"Chelsea FC admitted to the 74 breaches of FA Rule E1.2 prior to a hearing and an independent Regulatory Commission imposed a six-point deduction, which was to be suspended until 30 June 2027, and a £10 million fine.
"The club appealed against the suspended points deduction and an independent Appeal Board allowed the appeal and set aside this sanction following a further hearing. In its place, the Appeal Board imposed a registration ban for two complete and consecutive transfer windows which is suspended until 30 June 2027.
"The £10 million fine imposed by the Regulatory Commission was not subject to appeal and the full amount will be invested into grassroots football."
The people who say it's AWFUL to expect someone with £2m in assets to sell any of them to pay their taxes tend to be the same ones who think you should have to sell your phone and TV before getting government help if you become disabled.
“Nearly 20% of homeowners across the UK would be worse off”
Ok so over 80% of homeowners across the UK would not be worse off, in fact likely to be better off.
That’s the entire point, we need to stop making policies for the minority in London.
My parents bought their house in the 80’s in north London for £125k that home is now worth nearly £2 million.. they live on a pension.. property rich cash poor !!! If Burnham brings in the 0.48% tax that would make them liable to a council tax bill of £9600 a year
Anyone else see the problem here ?
If a house is ≈ £300,000 then council tax is around £2,600 per year
Under Burnham’s new proposals, 0.48% would be less than £1,500….
Can someone please explain to me how this is a bad thing because I’m genuinely confused.
Çin enerji işini başka seviyeye taşıdı
Gobi çölünde dev bir kule kurdular
etrafında 12 bin ayna var
hepsi güneşi tek noktaya odaklıyor
ısı 800 fahrenheit üstüne çıkıyor
bu ısıyı alıp tuz tanklarında depoluyorlar
evet bildiğin tuz
ama 565 dereceye kadar ısınıyor
ve saatlerce soğumuyor
güneş batınca sistem durmuyor
o sıcaklıkla buhar üretip elektrik vermeye devam ediyor
100 megavat güç
gece gündüz üretim
yılda 390 milyon kwh
kömür santrali yakıt ister
bu sistem sadece güneş ister
güneş enerjisinin en büyük sorunu geceydi
çin onu da çözmüş gibi görünüyor

In the semi final,
You flaunted a banner about Falkland Islands after the game against England, a deplorable vile crass gesture that flouted FIFA rules and disrespected a country you just played. But you are wondering why there is hate from across the world.
In the final,
After the game against Spain,
You became a dirty group of violent thugs attacking and manhandling the Spanish players after the game. But you are wondering why there is hate from across the world.
Delusional wretched classless sore losers.
🇺🇸🇮🇷 Reporter: You are talking about blowing up civilian power plants and bridges in Iran. Much of the civilized world would consider that a war crime. Do you?
Trump: I won't respond to that question. Who are you with?
Reporter: The New York Times.
Trump: I figured so. The failing New York Times.
Why do Americans tolerate this shit?
Robert, spare us the pantomime.
Gary Lineker did not drag the government to court so he could pay less tax.
HMRC tried to reclassify his freelance work as employment under IR35 and hit him with a £4.9 million bill he did not owe. He took them on, won the case, and proved they got it wrong. That is not tax dodging. That is making the taxman stick to the rules instead of inventing them.
Defending yourself against a false bill is completely different from choosing to support higher taxes. One is your right. The other is putting your money where your mouth is.
You, on the other hand, are busy sneering at millionaires willing to pay more while the Met Police are investigating a £37,500 donation to your own Tory leadership campaign. The Electoral Commission referred it because part of the money allegedly came from a foreign source. You say the claims are false. Fine. The investigation is still running.
So whose side are you really on? Not the ordinary voter in your constituency watching services get cut.
Not the people who actually need the system to work.
You talk tough about tax while your own campaign finances are under scrutiny, and you still found time to abandon the Tories for Reform after failing to lead them.
You lecture others on hypocrisy while the police check your receipts. That takes a special kind of nerve.
