A little insight into my thoughts on sports, and whether they should be rushed back.

10 years ago my wife, the mum of our kids & the MP for Batley&Spen was killed by a far right extremist.
At anniversaries I try to be optimistic about the future. But not this time. In the ten years since she was killed we have gone backwards & I fear our democracy is now at risk
Why have I got Americans on my timeline, trying to justify hydration/commercial breaks!
We've rarely needed them for over 100 years!
I accept that when conditions dictate a small stoppage to take on drinks is required, for a minute or so, but not every game, and not for ads!
Never forget that as Elon Musk became a trillionaire today, it is estimated that 750,000 people have died as a result of his cutting of USAID. The majority of those deaths were children.
Jeremy Johnson - in 50 years time this will be the only 1.39 minutes of your life you'll be remembered for. It'll be played in genocide museums to sum up the complicity and callous brutality of the British state in the face of the slaughter of the Palestinian people - and the courage of those who opposed it.
@J1875_ Hope they both take us to a World Cup win… both really great players in their day… Bellingham is world class and Rogers is working his way up to that … great that they’re both from the midlands.
I honestly couldn’t give a shit if the USA public know the world cups on… based on how it’s looking,I hope it never does appeal.
They monetise everything, so I’m ok without their backing and their snake oil salesmen getting involved! #FIFA@bbcsport https://t.co/ExncvEDvpq
Things I am glad the UK doesn’t have. A head of state who can pardon anyone. Politically appointed judges. More guns than people. Greedy insurance companies running the entire health system.
🇬🇧🇵🇸 Richard Burgon expone la hipocresía británica
En el Parlamento británico, el diputado Richard Burgon dejó en evidencia el doble rasero del gobierno.
“Imaginemos que este fin de semana en Londres hubiera un evento ruso vendiendo tierras ucranianas.
El gobierno lo prohibiría de inmediato. En cambio, tenemos un evento inmobiliario israelí vendiendo abiertamente tierras robadas en territorios palestinos ocupados… y el gobierno no hace nada.”
El Reino Unido reconoce oficialmente a Palestina, pero permite que se vendan propiedades en asentamientos ilegales israelíes.
Esto es la hipocresía occidental en su máxima expresión: leyes para unos, impunidad total para Israel.
Working-class white people are burning down the homes of black working-class people, at the instigation of the world's only trillionaire. How has it come to this?
10 years ago Jo Cox was shot and stabbed to death in Birstall by a far right thug.
Do you remember the Farage \ Tommy Robinson riots that followed it,
No me neither.

Copa do Mundo é uma boa ocasião pra lembrar que "israel" exterminou ao menos 437 jogadores de futebol palestinos, mais de 800 atletas e que o presidente da FIFA é alvo de denúncia no Tribunal Penal Internacional como cúmplice de "israel" em crimes de guerra e de lesa-humanidade?
New footage has emerged in the killing of seven-month-old Palestinian Sam Abu Haikal in the occupied West Bank.
The video appears to show the family's car slowing to a stop before an Israeli soldier opens fire.
