Too on point not to share, “Aussie reply to Trump rant about NATO not being there for us.
Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage.
You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail.
Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates.
Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you.
And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban thanked you very much for losing again.
And you're calling Greenland poorly run?
Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no.
"NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years.
And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess.
So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your fucking mouth. Credit (borrowed from) Jim Scroggins - original author 📷 unknown”
Celebrities everywhere can sleep easy now Aaron Ramsey has retired!
A career that never followed the easy path, from that horrific leg break at Stoke that should have ended everything, to dragging himself back to become an essential Arsenal cog, scoring FA Cup winners, owning big nights, and reminding everyone what class looks like when it refuses to quit.
Then came 2016. The greatest year of every Welshman’s life? Not just a part of it like at Arsenal, him and his mate Ga Bale drove their success. Suspended for the semi-final, you could feel his absence in every blade of grass. That’s how important he was.
6 years later him and his pal led their country to their first world cup for 64 years, and while they didn't achieve the same success, he ensured his legacy as one of Wales' greatest ever sportsmen.
The big money move to Juventus didn’t quite work, Rangers was brief (and the less said about that pen the better), and a surprise Mexico move ended this illustrious career with some horrendous bad luck. But the man built in Cardiff, with a brief stint back home at the (almost) end, on his day, was one of Europe's best midfielders in his prime.
When you think of Aaron Ramsey, you don’t think of all the setbacks. You think of the stunning goals and the big nights that will live long in the memory of Wales and Arsenal fans.
Diolch Aaron!

“He was such a great bloke. After I hit hard times financially later in life, if he saw me he would always ask if I was all right for money.
“One day, I went to his house when he was with Newcastle United and he asked me if I wanted any boots. It was up to me what I did with them, maybe sell them to make a few quid to ease the debts.
“I ended up coming out of his garage with around 30 pairs. That’s how generous he was. I will never forget his kindness.” - Mickey Thomas
“He was never late, he was a proper professional, loyal, hardworking. He was great on a night out. Everyone wanted to be around him. He had it all.
“He was a beautiful person.” - Duncan Ferguson
Remembering Gary Speed, on what would have been his 56th birthday. A heroic man.🙌
