Nervously watching the mighty Reds for four decades. Libyan sun, not Arabian. Lichfield isn't Birmingham. Being considerate isn't 'woke'.

I wrote a piece about how African Americans have used memories of the Revolution to redefine what freedom means in the United States. theconversation.com/usa-at-250-t...

USA at 250: the Black American struggle for life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness
From the very earliest days of independence, the struggle of African Americans for their rights has defined the idea of freedom in the United States.

A clueless former colleague once said to me, "I assume you'll be calling for Steve McLaren's head". The answer was no.

I had this poster on my bedroom wall, but we scribbled over the Everton players. Sort of undermining the Merseyside unity messaging!

Exactly. I stupidly thought it might reduce when they signed him. Crediting their fanbase with too much intelligence. And Rooney too cowardly to object to him and his family being insulted every game.

The ball clearly changed direction and had more backspin on it after it hit his fingers.

It really is something to see politicians, commentators and media outlets whose whole identity is based on being so-called ‘patriots’ frothing with excitement as they line up to back a deranged megalomaniac who consistently attempts to belittle and bully the country they claim to love

Two injury time defeats and one injury time winner in my last 3 games. A microcosm of our season, most games in the balance and could go either way. We turn them into 10 minute basketball games.

In 2020, Jim Ratcliffe moved his fortune to Monaco, saving himself an estimated £4 billion in tax. In the same year, immigrants in the UK contributed around £20 billion in tax. That says it all.

As Robert Jenrick jumps ship, Reform’s “new politics” looks more like a spin cycle for the same people behind 14 years of decline.

When I complained about union flags in Lichfield, he said the Council's rules permit them if they aren't modified/don't contain political slogans. When I pointed out that many of the flags say Unite the Kingdom, he didn't reply. His exposure as a racist is no surprise.

The only Legitimate Concerns about asylum seekers are concerns for their well being and safety. For a rich country like ours to incessantly whine about these people as if we are their victims is perhaps the single most pathetic spectacle in British politics over the past quarter century.

The only way to defeat extremism is to be radical; radically honest and determined. Not take this shit any more. Tell people the truth. Why we need immigration. Why Brexit is a shitheap. Why our public services can’t cope. Why our economy is stuck… Anything other than that, Nigel is laughing at you.

Once every 20 years or so, the director-general of the BBC is forced to resign for being insufficiently rightwing. Alastair Milne in 1987. Greg Dyke in 2004. Tim Davie in 2025. The great irony is that the BBC was in all cases profoundly biased towards established power. But just not biased enough …

The fall of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is no fall at all. It comes ELEVEN years too late and has only happened as a damage limitation exercise. We need to start having a grown up conversation about monarchy... and I'm starting it here. Me @noosphere.app www.noosphere.app/cast-into-th...
