I've long believed that our electoral system needs fundamental change. If you feel similarly, please consider signing this petition promoted by @electoralreform.bsky.social for an independent commission on reform - it's too important to be left to politicians: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/76...

@wsc.co.uk @camsell59.bsky.social In search of talking-point sweets to take to Solihull Moors v Boston later, I found these in my local One Stop. I am fascinated to hear what Rob (who sits next to me) has to say about these. "What did they do to the chickens?!"

I hope that they will at least see there is a line that shouldn't be crossed in the commercialisation of football, but systematically ruining every European club competition to wring every last penny out doesn't set a great example. I am suspicious of how they have suddenly become the good guys

The corruption in FIFA is so endemic and inherent to its structure that only something as massively egregious as this, which causes officials to break ranks, would do it

Responding to a question in a pre-tournament presser about the official refused entry to the US, Iran being forced to relocate training base and various journalists and fans being banned by saying everyone should "chill, relax" was a pretty big red flag too

Tesla made suppliers tool up for 120k units/year of this turd, it sold a third of that in year one, and then sales fell by 50% in year two. Biggest flop in modern automotive history, and it isn't close.

I'm sure Jenrick doesn't care. It's all a game to him. Anything to stay in the spotlight.

But he will have to put it aside because there is no room for personal ambition in Reform for anyone other than Nige, as he will very quickly discover

Does Honest Bob Jenrick really think there is space or bandwidth for any other big beasts in Reform besides Farage? If he does, he's got a rude awakening coming.

Just once on #TheTraitors when they banish someone and they turn out to be an actual traitor, I wish that instead of the usual "I've had so much fun" boring pap, they'd be "I just wish I could've murdered more of you! You all deserved to die!" and then get dragged out screaming. It's what I'd do.

Josh Shapiro called the McDonald’s employee who reported Luigi Mangione a “hero.” She will NOT get the $10,000 reward money because she called 911 instead of the tip line. By the way, Josh Shapiro got $15,000 in donations from United Healthcare last year. Numbers are fun.
