@bestcanton7 I haven't read that one, but for me easily the best Clough biography is Jonathan Wilson's. Captures the complexity of the man really well.

@AlexPastoortje I desperately try not to be old man shouting at cloud about this but it's absolutely true.

[AlexPastoortje @AlexPastoortje]

These fuckers from the past are so good man. You see clips from guys like Van Basten, Gascoigne even more recent Totti, and I’m thinking what the fuck are we seeing nowadays. The guys used to be elite footballers, now you are an elite efficient production machine

@mypalfootfoot7 Do you remember that urban legend that Gordon Jackson donated his body to the Hunterian museum in Glasgow uni for display, or was that just an urban legend amongst Glasgow uni students?

I just listened to the 14 minute live Like A Hurricane from Weld. His solo goes on for about 8 minutes of it, is the most basic soloing you've ever heard yet sounds like the fall of the fucking Roman Empire.

[John Frankensteiner @JFrankensteiner]

Love the Neil quote about one-note guitar solos when he said something like, “People say that it's only one note, but in my head, each one is different.” You see him here bending the same note repeatedly for stretches, and he's right; every single one of them is different.

To justify the arms economy, it's as simple as that.

[elena antoniou @elenaantoniou3]

For the life of me, I still cannot understand the British obsession with Russia. They share no borders, have no direct economic competition with Russia, and Russia neither claims British territory nor poses a direct threat to Britain. So what is it? Nostalgia for a lost empire and a desperate need to remain relevant on the world stage?

He looks and sounds like he was created in a New Labour cloning facility fusing DNA from a lock of James Purnell's hair with an all access 2003 Labour conference lanyard. Even the name has come from Peter Mandelson's approved clone naming manual.

[Saul Staniforth @SaulStaniforth]

Govt minister Keir Mather is asked about record diesel prices.

He says: ".. I want to reassure people that they can still go to the pumps and fill up with diesel because the supply that we have to the UK is inherently resilient"

They can't if they can't afford it.

[Mr Demos of Pnyx @gem_ste]

@BanGaoRen He genuinely looks like he was created in a new labour cloning facility fusing the DNA from a lock of James Purnell's hair and a lanyard. Even the name could only have come from Peter Mandelson's approved clone naming manual.

9/11 for overfriendly centrist dads

[Mr Demos of Pnyx @gem_ste]

@ejhchess 'Broad church' entails good faith acceptance of the wishes of the majority of the party membership, whichever wing wins. Let's now apply that dictum to when the left won the democratic mandate in 2015. How much broad church principle was practiced in the subsequent 5 years?

[Mr Demos of Pnyx @gem_ste]

Ralph Miliband here succintly explains why the 'broad church' metaphor is held so dearly by the right wing of the Labour party.

[Paul Embery @PaulEmbery]

Kinnock was right to take on the entryists of the Militant Tendency. Labour should always be a broad church, and there should be a place in the party for the radical left. But party members should not be forced to accept as bedfellows people who are ultimately dishonest about their methods and motives (and who would never have achieved more than a derisory vote if they stood on their own ticket). Militant was a party within a party. Everyone knew it. They needed to be drummed out.

Today, NATO will be awarded the International Peace of Westphalia Prize. The jury is 11 men, including Friedrich Merz and the literal Prince of Prussia and Head of the House of Hohenzollern.
