@AdamBlackmore Adam, love your commentary and comments but this was obvious 5 games in. I can only assume sacking Martin is expensive because he his a Championship level Louis Van Gaal. And that's where we'll probably be for the next 3 years. Please tell me I'm wrong.

@boris_nemesis @afneil @Mike_Fabricant So true. And yet chess-playing Reeves was so easily put in check by agreeing explicitly not increase this blatant tax-bribe.

@AdamBlackmore @solentsport Adam, you always see the positives, but according to computer stats, we had the third easiest start to the season of any Prem team. Look where we are. We're losing home and away to teams around us. The trapdoor is opening. By Christmas it might be too late.

@DaleVince @afneil What happens on the Monday morning after we reach net zero tomorrow? How have we saved the planet? We are only responsible for about 1% of global emissions. Everyone agrees the direction of travel but how we get there, and how fast, are rightly being questioned.

[Antony M Brown @ccjury]

@ZenoDEADCENTRE1 @afneil So you cannot shout 'fire' even when there is a fire in a crowded theatre? Or when you have good grounds for believing there is one? Or when you believe there is one? I think you need to do a bit more thinking on this.

@tominwood @afneil If the UK got to net zero tomorrow how would that save the planet? Isn't the UK responsible for about 2% of global carbon emissions?

You couldn't make this up. I visited Potossi in Bolivia where our tour guide broke down in tears over the economic and cultural rape of her country by the Spanish.

Spain's victory over England last night was a win for anticolonialism, antiracism and antimonarchism. It was also, most importantly a win for Scotland. 🇪🇦 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 #VIVA_ESPAÑA

@itvfootball @markpougatch @laura_woodsy @GNev2 @IanWright0 @GaizkaMendieta6 England will make history tonight. WIN and they become 11th country to claim the trophy. LOSE and they become the first country to lose both back-to-back finals (USSR, W. GERMANY, GERMANY and SPAIN are the other nations to make consecutive finals).

@mattletiss7 @BradlawSkimp No it's not a logical step, it's a non sequitur. It could be the FBI were simply cotowing to power - unless you define election interference so broadly to mean any action or non-action by any organisation wrt a politician.

[Antony M Brown @ccjury]

@peekpref @banterousbear @afneil The reality is that what the UK does will have an extremely small impact on the ability to limit further global warming and thinking that other countries will follow our example is wishing thinking. The direction is agreed but how fast we go and at what cost is open to debate.

@thebiglemon is the 85 running this morning?

@walkermartyn @toadmeister Tidal energy. Don't talk sense. It was touted as the energy source for human kind by JBS Halane before even the atom was spilt.

@lpp28 @AdamBlackmore The argument against him going is that his successor would be chosen by the same mgt that appointed him and NJ. I have so little faith in the club at the mo.

@sharrond62 And don't forget the world leader in EV batteries (and likely to be for years to come) is the world's most carbonised economy - China.

[Antony M Brown @ccjury]

@JamesGillespieX @afneil No, you're wrong, if you want to keep power on all the time you need to be able to cover periods when intermittent sources are low. So phase out gas, then what's to fill the gap? Saying the wind blows at other times is no answer.

Walking the South West Coast Path today but timed it so we can stop off at the Blue Ball Inn and watch #Lionesses #bbcfootball

@RichardLatto Richard, I have a question.

Does JL KNOW if God Save The Queen officially* got to No.1 in June 77 and there was a stitch-up to keep it at No. 2?

* It was No.1 on the NME chart for one week (18.6.77).

If you need any background on this, please get in touch.

Just heard that Doreen Mantle has sadly died. She was the last surviving person to have acted with Gay Gibson and provided excellent insight for my book Death of an Actress and @RichardLatto's Porthole Mystery on BBC TV.

@RichardLatto @RadioToday Look forward to it, Richard.
