Add his two hellish terms together and we’re 71.5% of the way through the full nightmare.

Not defending people wandering into the street whenever they like - but if there’s a green man, headphones or no, you should be able to cross. If that’s not possible, it means deaf and blind people are effectively unable to safely cross the road. Which is basically how it appears to me in London.

The problem is the plastic bottle, not the lid. Glass and aluminium are right there and extremely recyclable. But yes, the tied-on lids are dreadful.

For all those goals were terrific and have left me with a sore throat, the Evertonian in me worries that we needed 2 brilliant strikes to get our goals… that’s over-quota on Expected Great Goals. I’d like a couple of rudimentary slots against Spurs, please.

Any insight on what’s gone on with Richarlison, Giulia? Any sense of what the sticking point is?

That’s like saying a car shattered the marathon record.

A robot did not shatter a human world record.

Hijacker: Everyone stop talking. I am armed and I am taking control of this plane. Guy from the Netherlands: Wow, in Netherlands we just purchase a plane if we want one. But typically we will bike somewhere Guy who has been to Japan once: In Japan planes are rarely hijacked. It's a cultural taboo

Great article, Giulia. As I’m sure you’re aware, Moyes likes to intimidate journalists - so prepare for the worst and hold your ground. He hates scrutiny.

Hope he’s hanging off the fluorescent light.

He carefully backed himself out of the ‘happily dissatisfied’ comments today, just hoping he hasn’t reversed into a right back hole on his way out…

Can’t believe they’ve spoiled this in the trailers - and Empire has posted it, too!

Imagine getting that as a tattoo. The clearest sign you can possibly imagine that these people cannot be appeased. He’ll always hate the government, it doesn’t matter who they are or what they do.

Never once heard a good version of the US national anthem sung at a sporting event. Every singer makes it about themselves.

When is there ever ‘fanfare’ about how things are funded? What a strange word choice.

Allen Brindle @allenbrindle.bsky.social · 01/08/2026

Oh yes, the new platforms are great. But there’s a lot more walking now. The new main entrance has a long airport-like corridor from the waiting area to the platforms. I can see it catching people out, like unexpectedly long walks to departure gates can at airports.

Allen Brindle @allenbrindle.bsky.social · 01/08/2026

And they now have brand new platforms which are miles away from the Victorian ones.

Why is it awkward? It’s just the nature of the timetable - and as far as I can see, it slots neatly into his reindustrialisation narrative.

“Continuity Starmer” is such a poor label. It makes people think about Starmer, not Burnham. Dreadful attack line.

Literally no one has called this the best World Cup of all time. No one. Biggest != best.

What? No football match is ever ‘destined to be a classic.’ Anything can happen in football - which is what makes it so great and necessarily means you can’t judge a classic until it’s happened. Like the third-place playoff. No one thought that would be game of the tournament, and it was.

You can mistake the two in the right light.

David's work stands on its own, Coops. It doesn't need a silly light emoji every post, signalling it's to be considered more important than anything else in your feed It's a touch embarrassing. Almost as embarrassing as a self-appointed knight leaping to defend him from an observation by a 'nobody'

Do all of your posts warrant a 🚨do you think? Or does it maybe start to look a bit self-important after a while?

Like the Umbro ads bottom of frame. Bizarrely makes it feel more like an Everton ground, even with the goals!

Genuinely hilarious to see Reform-types attempting to hold the line on this being them versus the establishment. Must make the perennial joke candidate seem like an establishment foe, lest ol’ Nige look completely and utterly ridiculous.

I was looking at this on Breakfast News this morning… language aside, it’s a confusing message! “Thank you very much from Bayeux to the British Museum.” I understand it’s a thank you, followed by the direction of travel - but it just reads like a backwards thank you!

And Reform are polling just shy of 50% in that constituency, anyway. Good luck, guys.

Yes, programming is uniquely suited to AI assistance in that respect. AI can’t perform chemistry experiments, it can’t run legal arguments through the court system - and it certainly can’t produce art. But it can execute code and verify results.

The real question is how much of this is about how younger people always feel, and how much is about how the current younger generation feel.

European teams have never liked World Cups in the Americas - only one European win in 8 attempts this tournament.
