@JuliaHB1@TheSun I want him to explain the difference between a white British man telling police he canβt breathe before dying and a black American man saying the same thing. He wanted us to go down on one knee for only one of them
@billyredhead1 I instantly recognised him when seeing his picture. It shows the impact he had on football. I laugh when I read about the skill and fitness of modern football. Watching Tambling dance through psychopathic defenders on Chelseaβs βfieldβ is as fit & skilful as anyone could get
Labour folk accusing @Nigel_Farage and Reform of exploiting Henry Nowak's murder for political gain really need to take a long hard look in the mirror.
Thanks to everyone who came last night... For those who weren't there, please don't be mislead by some of the headlines. This was a night of pure positivity. KK is doing what he does best. Fighting hard, responding brilliantly to the treatment and getting stronger everyday. π€π€

James Milner retiring means 2026-27 will be the first English top-flight season since 1956-57 that will not feature a single player who played under Sir Bobby Robson.
I donβt understand why people bought tickets so early. This is the American market works. Basically everyone I know waits until the last minute to buy tickets. Unless youβre the hard core fan insisting on front row for a concert no need to buy early. Picked up Spain Cape Verde tickets for $275 this week.
Letβs nail this state lie once and for all. The government is NOT increasing defence spending by Β£270 billion during this parliament. It is a ludicrous claim.
Yet one Keir Starmer made to Parliamentβs Liaison Committee in March: Labour, he said, will βspend Β£270 billion MORE (my emphasis) than we would otherwise have done on defenceβ in this Parliament.
Starmer has always been weak on facts and figures but even by his standards this is a massive porkie.
This is the truth: Β£270 billion is the total cumulative projected defence spending for the four financial years from 2025/26 up to and including 2028/29 lumped together.
It is NOT even the cumulative increase in defence spending during these years.
Nobody (except perhaps Gordon Brown) speaks about public spending in this way, unless the intention is massively to mislead.
By 28/29 defence spending is projected to be Β£13 billion a year more than at the start of the period. So not exactly Β£270 billion. But I guess if youβre going to lie you might as well make it a whopper.
