@NotPaneen If they planned far enough in advance, they’d have applied for a Temporary Event Notice from the council. Usually 10 days notice required. Routes to final were published as soon as groups announced so could have been applied for months ago.

I often wonder what the fuck is wrong with society 👇

Heartfelt congratulations to the person who dug up the pitch at the Crown Hill Cricket Ground to prove their "success."

You succeeded in your mission.

Westcroft Cricket Club has, with great regret, been forced to withdraw from the league because it is no longer possible for other teams to play in this constant environment of vandalism.

You did not just damage a pitch; you stripped away the favorite sport, the joy, the friendships, and the healthy activities of over 80 children, youths, and adult players.

Congratulations on impacting an entire cricketing community.

Congratulations on undermining the hard work of volunteers who dedicate their time, money, and energy to promote the sport.

Congratulations on disappointing the parents who wanted to see their children engaged in positive activities.

Cricket is not just a game; it is a source of discipline, friendship, respect, and community cohesion.

It is tragic that someone’s negative mindset and destructive actions have washed away the happiness of so many people.

Hopefully, you are satisfied today knowing that a single action of yours has affected dozens of matches, hundreds of hours of hard work, and the happiness of countless individuals. But remember, grounds can be rebuilt, pitches can be prepared again, and the cricket community can bounce back stronger than ever.

Our full support and respect goes out to Westcroft Cricket Club, its players, volunteers, and supporters.

We hope this difficult time passes quickly and that the voices of children and youth will once again echo through the cricket ground.

A Call to the Community

We request all readers to strongly condemn this shameful act. The person who damaged the cricket ground and pitch did not just dig up soil—they attacked the happiness of dozens of children, youth, and athletes.

If you also believe that damaging sports fields, youth activities, and community hard work is unacceptable, then please raise your voice against this act.

Express your condemnation at least once, so a message goes out that our community will never accept such negative and destructive behavior.

Your single comment, a word, or even one voice can serve as proof of standing with this community.

Show solidarity with Westcroft Cricket Club, its 80+ players, and all its volunteers.

Sports stand for love, unity, and positive engagement. It is the responsibility of us all to discourage those who destroy them.

Westcroft Cricket Club.

Anyone else remember when a Prime Minister would get voted in and then spend a whole term in office, meaning that a government could spend five whole years actually governing and not tearing itself to pieces. Crazy times.

[Just me - Thomas @TomSoede]

Open letter to Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer

Dear Prime Minister,

I am writing as a Labour supporter who is deeply concerned by the growing pressure surrounding your leadership, but also as someone who has developed a genuine admiration for the way you conduct yourself.

What I respect most about you is your seriousness.

You are not a political showman. You do not rely on constant drama, easy slogans or theatrical promises. You come across as disciplined, intelligent, decent and deeply conscious of the responsibility that comes with leading the country.

In an age when politics is increasingly dominated by noise, outrage and personality cults, your calmness is a strength.

Your resilience is also admirable. You have faced relentless criticism, personal attacks and an often hostile media environment, yet you have continued to behave with dignity. You rarely lash out. You do not appear consumed by ego. You keep returning to the work.

That matters to me.

Britain has already endured years of political chaos, revolving-door prime ministers and governments more interested in internal warfare than governing. The country does not need another leadership contest. It needs stability, seriousness and delivery.

You were elected with a mandate to govern. You inherited damaged public services, weak growth, overcrowded prisons, an NHS under enormous pressure and public trust worn down by fourteen years of Conservative government. None of that can be repaired overnight.

I hope you will remain Prime Minister and continue the work until the next general election in 2029.

Labour MPs should understand that removing you now could trigger weeks of division, uncertainty and damaging promises made during a leadership contest. The press would feed on the chaos, financial markets could react, and Nigel Farage and Reform would be handed exactly the political instability they want.

This is not the time for Labour to imitate the Conservative Party.

I also believe your personality is better suited to this difficult period than many people appreciate. You are methodical rather than impulsive, measured rather than reckless, and focused on governing rather than performing.

Those qualities may not always generate exciting headlines, but they are the qualities a serious Prime Minister needs.

Leadership is not only about popularity. It is about character.

It is about remaining calm when others panic, showing discipline when others chase attention, and continuing the difficult work when the noise becomes unbearable.

Please hold the line.

Many Labour supporters still believe in your integrity, your determination and your sense of duty. Britain needs less political theatre and more delivery, and you deserve the opportunity to complete the job the country elected Labour and you to do.

Yours sincerely,

Thomas Soede

If people genuinely believe Burnham won’t receive the exact same media onslaught, they’ve not been paying attention.

Starmer is not, objectively, bad. This idea that he is somehow the worst PM in British history is frankly laughable.

Liz truss lasted 49 days, crashed the pound and was laughed out of Downing Street.

Since Labour took office, Keir Starmer’s government has:

• Scrapped the two-child benefit limit, lifting hundreds of thousands of children out of poverty and putting money back into some of the hardest-pressed households in the country.

• Expanded free school meals, cutting costs for families and making sure more children get a proper meal during the school day.

• Expanded funded childcare, reducing one of the biggest monthly costs facing working parents and making it easier for people to stay in work.

• Raised the National Living Wage, increasing pay for millions of low-paid workers.

• Strengthened workers’ rights, giving people greater protection against insecure work and bad employers.

• Introduced statutory sick pay from the first day of illness, so workers are less likely to choose between their health and their wages.

• Ended no-fault evictions, giving renters more security in their homes.

• Brought rail operators back into public ownership, taking key services out of failed private hands and giving the public a stronger stake in how they are run.

• Cut NHS waiting lists from their post-pandemic peak, meaning more patients are being seen sooner.

• Raised the state pension through the triple lock, protecting pensioners’ incomes against rising costs.

• Scrapped the old non-dom tax regime, making some of the wealthiest people in the country pay more fairly.

• Added VAT to private school fees, raising money from those most able to contribute.

• Removed business rates relief from private schools, ending an unjustified tax break.

• Increased neighbourhood policing, putting more officers and PCSOs back into communities.

• Helped bring knife crime down, meaning fewer families face the devastation of serious violence.

• Recorded the lowest homicide rate since the 1970s, a material improvement in public safety.

• Created Great British Energy, giving Britain a publicly owned clean energy company.

• Created the National Wealth Fund, backing investment in industry, infrastructure and clean energy.

• Passed planning reforms aimed at getting homes and major projects built faster.

• Improved relations with the EU, reducing diplomatic hostility and rebuilding practical cooperation.

• Agreed a UK-EU security partnership, strengthening cooperation on defence and European security.

• Signed a long-term partnership with Ukraine, reinforcing Britain’s support against Putin’s invasion.

• Secured new trade agreements, opening up markets for British businesses.

• Helped restore seriousness to government after years of scandal, chaos and decline.

People do not have to like Starmer. They do not have to vote Labour. But pretending this is the record of the worst Prime Minister in British history is absurd.

[Andy Fitchet @AndyFitchet]

So let me get this straight:

- Inflation lower than predicted
- unemployment falling
- small boat crossings falling
- NHS Waiting lists falling
- Interest rates stable
- Asylum hotel use falling
- net migration down 82%
- school attendance up

And Keir’s doing a really bad job?

[Supertanskiii @supertanskiii]

White British men, in their tens of thousands, will batter their girlfriends or wives tonight, whether England win or lose.

That’s not an “imported” problem.

That’s a problem with men.

None of those flagshaggers riot about that though, do they?

[Lloyd Lewis 💙 @LloydGeorge57]

We need fewer Lee Andersons and more Hannah Spencers.

[Trades Union Congress @The_TUC]

You voted against scrapping zero hour contracts.

You voted against banning fire and rehire.

You voted against day one sick pay for workers.

You said the minimum wage was too high for young people.

Reform politicians openly say they don't like trade unions.

You will always put the interests of your offshore crypto billionaire donors ahead of workers.
