So, Ann Widdecombe has made the transition from "Strictly Come Dancing" to "Dancing With The Stars".

Does the umpire at a Wimbledon match have the authority to eject [most likely] drunk, chanting audience members of the public?

@HelloBenWhite @UEFA Government interference can amount to a breach of Article 14(1)(i).
A serious breach can lead the FIFA Council to suspend the member association under Article 16(1).
Once suspended, the association …cannot participate in FIFA competitions while the suspension is in force.

MAGA clowns are posting this like it’s a good thing.

Trump getting Folarin Balogun unsuspended from the World Cup just shows you that everything he touches is delegitimate crap.

Now, if the US wins the World Cup, it will be questioned. Thanks, Trump.

Ok, as we're all talking #football, here's what Gemini thinks...

. @BBCSport -please add a brief delay before updating the score, on the top left on the @Wimbledon screen. Seeing it change helps me (and others?) know if a ball was in out when the volume is down

@EssexPR Would there have been any pressure from this side of the pond to change kick-off time?

I predict that a paid #VPN built on #NostrVPN will come soon, using #Bitcoin for payment obviously. This government has no clue on how fast technology is moving

@leicesterliz The power was always in the parents’ hands. They were just too weak to exercise it, hoping somebody else would take control. Pathetic!

@LostBritainSOS @BitcoinBRS So here we have 2 children, both have been schooled on what to say and how to say it by their parents.

(as Richard Dawkins once noted in a similar vein: there are no Christian children, only children of Christian parents)

@freddienew An opportunity for Jim Hacker, methinks.

A man from Iran has just defeated the world number one (a man called Trump). Interesting. Well played Hossein Vafaei!

@liz_churchill10 @BitcoinBRS Never trust a man who wears a hat indoors.

Seemingly, the right thing to do was…
- print a notice,
- stick it to the window, and
- screw the window closed,

… instead of just fixing the [expletive] window.

We should expect better.
