Absolutely sickening reading that news on the City fraud. £900m
Effects everyone of course, just thinking back at that period of time, the ups and more downs of player exits, money, results trying to match the arms race, going up and down the country knowing trying to remain competitive and not being able to compete.
Not excluding the farce of the Chelsea sanction to this, but its got to be relegation and enough points for multiple seasons that if they get promoted they start with punitive points deductions for season they come back.
We knew, we all knew, and now hopefully they are held to account.
Strip all results and titles, dont reaward them, what's the point.
Millions of football fans of other clubs have been denied special moments while this has been going on. Trophy wins, celebrations, European trips, memories with loved ones.
The essence of what being a football fan is all about, robbed by systematic cheating.
Players denied medals, managers denied legacies. How many people have lost jobs because of it??
It's tough to even find a punishment big enough that this all deserves.
Talk of one relegation, a £100m fine, European bans. It’s just nowhere near enough. This is the biggest scandal the Premier League has ever seen. We’ve all spent 15 odd years watching and spending money on a sham every week.
Honestly, not one single trophy they’ve won should be allowed to stand.
IT’S OFFICIAL: The @premierleague confirms Manchester City are the biggest cheats in British football history.
Punishment must hurt:
Relegate them, strip them of their fraudulently won titles + dock them 25pts for first 5 seasons if/when they get back in the Premier League.
Birmingham city council has moved to ban the English and British flags.
They have done this in the “interest of public safety.”
They propose instead to hoist the Pakistani flag.
Banning our own flag in our own country? Whoever proposed this should be deported at once.
This is how to lose your country in only two decades without a single shot fired.
Andy Burnham says when people are "causing fear and intimidation in communities" by covering their faces you "have to prevent them doing that"
The people who are causing fear and intimidation in our communities are unvetted illegal migrants.
The man is completely out of touch
Utterly disgraceful. No one elects bloody non-profits or NGOs, yet the state is outsourcing immigration policy to them - just as it has outsourced asylum policy to human rights lawyers and judges.
Shabana Mahmood has just declared yet another new “legal route” for thousands MORE Afghans to come to Britain.
Nobody voted for this.
It is illegitimate.
Let Labour know this:
As Home Secretary I will not allow anyone brought in on this scheme to stay in Britain.
They must have pretty high-flying jobs, given that they can afford to live in central London in their mid-twenties *and* to fill three vans with barrels of diesel.
Ridiculous. And this is seriously misleading!
Virgin ran the SAME West Coast service privately and achieved 91% passenger satisfaction. It was great!
Then the Government disqualified the Virgin consortium and awarded the route to FirstGroup/Trenitalia. (Avanti)
Avanti contracts are already OVERSEEN by the government and has delays, cancellations and is terrible value for money
The government is the reason the line is failing. And taking it back into government control wont fix it because you already have control and it’s wankered (technical term)
Labour have been in power for 2 years, 2 months and 24 days.
Since then they’ve attempted to stop local elections, scrap jury trials, change algorithms to favour “approved” news, and now take people's property against their will.
If someone listed those events without context, my mind would go straight to the Soviet Union of the 1930s.
This should not be Britain in 2026.
🚨 THE MINISTRY OF DEFENCE MISSED THE TERROR WARNING CALL BECAUSE NOBODY ANSWERED THE PHONE
Watch Ellie Costello utterly humiliate Defence Secretary Wes Streeting on live television hahaha!
A local farmer spotted a bomb threat near RAF Fairford and tried to alert the authorities, but officials at the Ministry of Defence did not even pick up the telephone.
British taxpayers pour billions of pounds into national security only for an urgent terror alert to ring out at an empty desk.
Wes Streeting squirmed on camera, unable to explain whether staff were on a tea break while explosive threats were unfolding outside a major airbase.
Labour ministers cannot even answer an emergency phone call, let alone defend Great Britain from hostile actors.
Retweet this clip immediately to expose the dangerous amateur hour running our Ministry of Defence. 🇬🇧🔥
