Scousers raising this flag, short memories
Try telling that to supporters of Wimbledon, Coventry, Norwich or even Everton who had the best team in Europe in 85. All denied European football.
Wimbledon might still be Wimbledon if theyd played in Europe, they were cheated.
Reform UK are apparently going to send out an 8 page flyer to £15 million homes. Not that I'm suggesting that you send them back, so they have to pay for the return postage. But if you are, you might find this useful.
Finally someone with a fucking brain that’s willing to call it out for what it is
The soft touch approach from cunts on prominent football podcasts has been utterly embarrassing
They were a nothing club and they deserve to have the book thrown at them
It takes 3.2 seconds to RT and help find Missing 3-year-old boy Noah in Brantham

Paul Nowak, "I just want to take a moment to talk about that self proclaimed workers champion, Nigel Farage"
"Who better than to take on the establishment than a privately educated ex-banker multimillionaire"
"And who better t rattle the cages of Westminster complacency, than a 30 year career politician leading a party of Tory has beens"
"And who better to clean up our politics than a man who sips champagne and eats oysters while taking dodgy donations from foreign funders"
"Reform UK do not, never have, and never will represent the interests of working people"
"Why is it that two crypto billionaires have donated £72 million to Reform UK in just two days?"
"The evidence is clear, Reform UK is a party for sale, Nigel Farage is a politician for sale, and given half the chance they'd sell our country down the river"
"This is a crisis for our democracy, we cannot allow our political system to be captured by corporate interests"
"And let me one tell you that there is any similarity between care workers chipping in a few quid every year through their union, and a party bought and paid for by billionaires"
"If you don't live in Britain, if you don't pay your taxes in Britain, then don't meddle in British politics"
"No representation without taxation"
Martin Lewis, there is something very, very, very wrong in the system... 😡
So … let me get this straight:
* British Gas made a profit of £1.3bn between January & June
* BP announced profits of £6.95 billion between April and June alone
* Shell has profited by £9.4bn in a year
The MEN at the top:
* John Pettigrew, boss of National Grid received £6.5m bonus on top of his salary
* Chris O’Shea, chief executive of British Gas owner Centrica was paid almost £2m last year in salary and benefits
* Centrica's non-executive directors were paid almost £1m
* Scottish Power's CEO Keith Anderson is on £1.15m.
* E.On boss Michael Lewis is on £1m
* EDF's Simone Rossi is also on £1m
* And their top execs enjoyed a share of £4.65m
* Peter Simpson of Anglian Water earned a £1.3m pay package
* Welsh Water bosses awarded themselves bonuses of over £930,000
* Severn Trent bosses awarded themselves bonuses of £5.56m
* Thames Water's Sarah Bentley, received a £727,000 bonus on top of her £2m annual salary
Meanwhile there are...
* People who haven't had breakfast and/or lunch TODAY, because they can't afford it.
* People using FoodBanks because food is becoming more of a luxury than a necessity.
* Children celebrating a birthday without presents.
* Parents worrying about new school uniforms - and some schools enforcing rules which are not cost-effective.
* People who can't get to work because they can't afford to put petrol in their cars/pay for public transport anymore.
* People who are working so much they're making themselves ill, and they STILL CAN'T AFFORD to pay their bills.
* People who have been given fines by these same energy/water companies because they couldn't afford to pay their bills in the first place - increasing their debt.
* Customers being told to do STAR JUMPS TO KEEP WARM for crying out loud!
* Hose pipe bans when gallons of water leak away everyday.
* Elderly people NOT DRINKING because they're worried about running out of water!!!
All this and energy prices are set to rise up to 75% in October...
THIS IS MADNESS!.. I'm all for supporting profits … I'm not for supporting greed at the cost of lives of others.
Something needs to change.
Why is customers' money being used to make life more comfortable for those who are making life more intolerable for the rest of us?
I actually don't understand how the energy companies are allowed to get away with this and why the government aren't stopping them instead of handing out money.....
COPIED AND PASTED FROM OTHERS :
PLEASE KEEP IT GOING SO MORE AND MORE GET TO SEE IT .
*BRILLIANT*
The French made a short film about what could happen after all immigrants would follow the ‘_white, angry old man’s_’ advice to go back where they came from.*
Someone has left this note - and this lighter! - at the Halifax grave of Maj.-Gen. Robert Ross, the British military man who burned down the White House.
Our charity exists to save lives at sea. Our mission is to save every one. Our lifesavers are compelled to help those in need without judgement of how they came to be in the water. They have done so since the RNLI was founded in 1824 and this will always be our ethos.
Hes spot on with everything hes sayingnhere and its been taken down. How ridiculous is that. We all know the officials are shocking and uts time theyre held to accountability. Howard Webb is bias and blind if the thinks these officials are fit to perform how they are.
Reform showing exactly what they do to people who don't agree with them.
They claim to want to protect women but assault them in packs!
I expect @WMPolice to identify these people ASAP and make the arrests!
🚨 An undercover investigation shown on Channel 4 exposed Reform figures allegedly breaking the law over foreign funding. Now demand a full criminal investigation. Sign the petition. 🔥
