Today is St George's Day. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Your patron saint wasn't English. Your flag wasn't English either.

Here's why we claimed them both. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧

He was from Cappadocia. Modern Turkey.

A Roman soldier. The Praetorian Guard. Diocletian's personal bodyguard.

303 AD. The Emperor orders him to persecute Christians.

He refuses. Walks into the throne room. Tells the Emperor his order is cruel.

They offer him his life back. Gold. Land. His old command.

He refuses again.

23rd of April, 303. They behead him.

1,723 years ago today.

The flag was Genoese. 1099. Their navy was so feared that Barbary pirates turned home at the sight of it.

In 1190, Richard the Lionheart signed a treaty. English ships could fly the cross for protection.

We flew it so long we forgot it wasn't ours.

In 2018, the Mayor of Genoa wrote to the Queen asking for 247 years of back rent.

She didn't reply.

Edward III makes George our patron saint.

Henry V cries his name at Agincourt.

A Roman soldier from Cappadocia became the name Englishmen died for.

We didn't inherit our patron saint. We chose him. And we chose a soldier who refused.

That is your history.

This is who we are. 🇬🇧

We find what Britain has forgotten. And we tell it properly.

We have always said we will not know the whole truth about Hillsborough until we know the truth about Orgreave.

Same police force.

Same tactics.

Five years earlier.

We are grateful to the Government for delivering on its manifesto promise. 🙏🏻

[XL RECORDINGS @XLRECORDINGS]

The Prodigy’s ‘Firestarter’ turns 30 today 🖤

Released on XL Recordings in 1996, the track became one of the defining records of the decade. Its iconic video, directed by Walter Stern and filmed in a disused London Underground tunnel, remains one of the most recognisable visuals of the 90s.

The stark, black-and-white shoot wasn’t the first video made for the track. An earlier, higher-budget version had already been filmed but was ultimately scrapped, leading the band back to a stripped-back concept that placed Keith Flint front and centre and captured the performance that would come to define the record.

Firestarter went on to top the UK charts for three weeks and became a worldwide hit.

Here is the Sun's pitifully small apology for its lie about benefits tourism - a lie that was accepted as truth by millions and helped deliver Brexit.

These lies are perverting our democracy. At a minimum, apologies should be published in the same location and size as the lie.

Today is a sad one for all football fans, as the head of the #EFL. With that in mind I thought I’d set up the Shaun Harvey Appreciation Thread, or #SHAT for short, so fans can log their memories & thanks for all he’s done for the teams they support.

[Kieran Maguire @KieranMaguire]

Interesting article in the New Statesman opposing price caps for concert tickets in the secondary market and it has some valid points.

I wonder if ViaGogo, who sponsored the article, would agree with the article’s views?
