The problem isn’t that they’re moving past it—it’s that they’re trying to rehabilitate it. Would be better for everyone if people who don’t want to engage with the facts just talked about the play on the field and left it at that.

The Holly Rowe discourse on the other app, ranging from body shaming to cackling about the fact that someone asked AI to create a video featuring violence against women, just reveals that women in sports will never have peace.

It's two days shy of two years since Oklahoma State last won an FBS game. And the Pokes just knocked off the No. 6 team in the country. God I love this sport.

Total yards Oklahoma State: 554 Oregon: 281 This was a beatdown that was only close because of two tipped INTs that created 14 Oregon points.

Promoting 'your' Substack on a website that *suppresses links* and whose algorithm *punishes content with politics anywhere to the left of Rishi Sunak*, and whose writing bears a cursory relationship to your voice. The whole thing is just sad, really.

Since winning the 2014 World Cup, Germany has failed to reach the Round of 16 in the last three tournaments. Losses to Mexico, South Korea, Japan, Ecuador and Paraguay (PKs) in that span. No good wins either.

Keir Starmer was the human rights lawyer who did pro bono work for LGBT activists fighting unjust laws across the world, then became the Prime Minister who capitulated to opponents of LGBT rights and cut off essential support for trans people. The next Labour leader must reverse the damage done.

This along with throwing disabled people under the bus sums up Starmer's leadership.

possibly the most rotten failing of Keir Starmer is that this is true: he did come in and genuinely turn around the Labour Party on the issue of antisemitism - but leaves it more morally compromised than he found it, with trans rights being rolled back and the racist far right emboldened

This is what really frustrates me. Labour has had long spells out of power in the past and come back with a broadly novel vision for government when eventually re-elected. On this occasion, when it was needed as much as ever, they didn’t.

One of the things Starmer's defenders on here get so wrong is to insist it's all about media froth. In fact, as that Jess Philips letter demonstrates, the most damning criticism of Starmer comes from those concerned about the policy and delivery process.

This letter is incredibly unusual for a ministerial resignation in that it actually spells out in plain English why Phillips is resigning, and why she thinks Starmer should go. With worked examples. Genuinely quite refreshing.

A theme here is the refusal to properly regulate tech companies- including when it comes to child safety. Taking on tech power is an example of something that could have helped create a sense of change and public mission. So many opportunities.

It may have made no difference but still remarkable that Starmer didn’t make a big offer on Europe/defence/growth/anything in his speech. Would have been better not to give it at all.

Keir Starmer is bad at the job, to the extent he does it. He came into power with limited preparation, he hired poorly, has never bothered to manage the parliamentary party and for two years he pursued a dreadful strategy that bore its bitter and inevitable fruit last Thursday.

Can’t quote tweet, but this was a huge campaigning issue for Labour people on the ground for years, yet it doesn’t seem to have been sold at national level, or landed, at all. If politics is about whose side are you on you’d think this would be front and centre for Labour (eg during Gorton)
