A picture of post-Brexit Britain. New post on my Brexit & Brexitism Blog on a fortnight of ugly political scenes, why a government-led counter-narrative on asylum is needed, and why these domestic political events are a national security issue: chrisgreybrexitblog.blogspot.com/2026/09/a-pi...

I could have gone with Haaland as c but chose Bruno. Is that skill or luck? It’s been a feature of #FPL since it started with the copies being posted in the 90s. I agree with others who have replied.

Excellent as ever. Reminded me of Orwell on England "A family with the wrong members in control – that, perhaps, is as near as one can come to describing England in a phrase."

I’ve got Palmer, Bruno and Haaland in my current draft. Arguably pay the price elsewhere but think Lamens and Macguire are very good value. Am sure I will change my mind 😂 #fpl

I fancy us to do well against Mexico if we progress and they see off Ecuador. We will be the underdogs. Hopefully our defensive frailties can be ironed out #worldcup

Yesterday two European institutions published this extremely good paper on future UK-EU ties. It deserves proper attention coming from there so to speak and being based on serious engagement with experts on both sides. Some key points follow... www.bertelsmann-stiftung.de/en/publicati...

Wonderful season for the Blues. Didn’t expect us to get promoted and win the league so easily. So unlike us. Anyway, next season will be a different proposition. 💙 #bcfc #kro

Mark Williams @markwilliams1.bsky.social · 13/04/2025

#Posh were much the better team and fully deserved their victory. Congratulations to them 🎉. We will learn from the that and in the long run it will help our development. Let’s finish the season with the highest EFL points total. #kro #bcfc

This is an excellent report/ analysis. FWIW I think Starmer is handling this incredibly difficult situation about as well as possible, even if it's not pretty, and distasteful for those who demand absolute moral purity in politics.

Shameful decision from Sweden which has no excuse for exterminating wolves like this. Imagine India decided to halve its tiger population, or Kenya its lions? There'd be an outcry. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Govt departments, police forces, universities and others should simply ensure they have a presence on multiple platforms. BlueSky, for example, has a growing UK audience They can then use the platforms that give positive engagement & wind down if/where engagement falls or toxicity dominates
