On the pitch, Manchester City impressed everybody last season. Now let’s take a look behind the scenes – on the men who own the club.

The mayoral discourse in Berlin continues to be *utterly* unhinged. If the AfD had topped the polls the narrative would be “finally the people have been heard!” but since the Left won, it’s all “Queer Islamofascists and Woke are trying to conquer us with, er, affordable rents!”

Remigration is genocide. Remigration is genocide. I am repeating this because the AfD will not and because genocide is *exactly* what they are offering at the ballot box. Think about it. How else can you reduce the population of Germany from 80 million to 60 million - as one of the AfD’s senior members, Dennis Hohloch, said this summer - when a large number of those millions don’t want to go, even after you try to deport them? You threaten them, you physically harm them, you kill them in huge numbers to encourage others to flee. That’s it. That’s it. People will believe the most outlandish claims about what the Left want but they will ignore what the AfD are •actually saying*.

A nine-point lead for the far-right in the German national polls. It’s totally normal now to see full-blown Nazis, as I did today, in the centre of Berlin. Each time I talk to a nonwhite immigrant, whether friend or stranger, I ask them “what is your plan B?” I don’t care how “crazy” I sound.

Fun interaction between two Argentina fans last night. One of them says to the other that if VAR was around in 2014 than Argentina might have won the final. The other, looks at him square in the face, and says “… and what if VAR was around in 1986 hombre?” The first guy, “good point” 🤜 ⚽️

Shane Warne ® @ShaneWarne • 1h Very disappointed in Nz not playing a spinner in the #ICCWorldTestChampionship as this wicket is going to spin big with huge foot marks developing already. Remember if it seems it will spin. India make anything more than 275/300 ! The match is over unless weather comes in !

Shane do you understand how spin works? The pitch gets dry... this pitch won't get dry because for the rest of the test, there is due to be rain
