Exactly!! There is an episode where one of the ghosts tries i'm certain and just gets returned to the same spot. How does a holiday work it defeats the whole premise of the show that they are tied to the house and grounds.

Nail on head, the ongoing inaction of our government bodies to curb this misinformation is absolutely negligent.

Paloma Faith speaking with Krishnan Guru-Murthy on #C4News "I did play at a concert with Ed Sheeran to raise money for Ukraine, so he wasn't being apolitical doing that" "My perspective, my motivation, as a mother, I've looked at the pictures and what I've seen is abominable"

At what point does ‘the masked men on the street have legitimate concerns’ and ‘Just Stop Oil/Palestine Action are terrorists’ become two tier policing?

8 for Malanda and 7 for McGree are baffling, Malanda went MIA for 1st goal and looked like a fish our of water for large parts of 2nd half and McGree put in one of his most ineffective appearances in a Boro shirt. Vitek also made an excellent save at 1-1 so deserves more than a 6

There has been absolutely no mention anywhere of him wanting away though. I mean i wouldn't blame him really as the amount of criticism he gets from the stands is proportionally off the scale until more info comes out this looks a shocking bit of deadline business.

Shambles at the back. Early signs points at Arfsten being the new Giles, left back that cant defend and Brittain on the other side put us in some difficult positions 1st half, as did Malanda, just defensively very very poor.

Absolute shambles at the back and its all well and good having 70% possession but thats only because the opposition is allowing you to have that much of the ball as they know you cant hurt them.

I think it’s just worth remembering that as the media handwring to justify publicly humiliating and hounding a man to death, just two weeks ago they gave glowing eulogies to another man with a history of domestic violence and brushed off his own statements about having pedophillic impulses

Who thought that playing a final game for 3rd and 4th spot was a good idea? No one cares about that match. The fans don’t. Nor the players that have just been eliminated in the semi-finals. It’s rubbing their noses in it. Let them go home instead of suffering this indignity. #worldcup

The danger of using voxpops in place of real analysis. Cameras are a magnet for motivated activists. These two made it into four different reels + a dozen print pieces. The illusion is that we're getting an insight into "Clacton voters". In truth, we just know what Farage Megastans Jim & June think.

Vox pops don't gauge opinions, they reinforce them. An editorial decision is made to broadcast a tiny selection of the people interviewed.

Starmer: If you don't like Labour changes leave Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer has said said Labour has changed permanently under his leadership. He said "if you don't like that, if you don't like the changes that we've made, I say the door is open, and you can leave". FAFO i suppose.

One detail in this fascinating BBC investigation into the Russia-instigated attack on Keir Starmer's home is the way it shows, in passing but very clearly, that Tommy Robinson is to all intents and purposes a Russian asset. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Hours like this last one on @lbc.co.uk hosted by @shelaghfogarty.bsky.social are utterly utterly depressing and make me fearful of what the next election brings. Caller after caller of people utterly deluded into thinking that Nigel Farage is the answer to all our problems, as thick as bricks

I am not even remotely surprised by this. So much attention has been directed towards Twitter/X, and while it is a huge problem, much larger groups of particular demographic groups are on Facebook - often those with poor digital literacy.

Nigel Farage tells The Sun's Harry Cole that Elon Musk offered to give Reform loads of money "if we said certain things" and he refused. "I can't be bought." Two things: 1. This is an allegation of attempted bribery. Very serious. 2. It shows the obvious: donors expect something for their money.

Not happening, Southampton will get a fine and at most a points deduction for next championship campaign whenever that may be. Gibson might try and force some financial recompense but even that will probably not come to fruition and the cheats get to prosper.

Absolutely no outlet when the swap was made and ball was just coming back at us constantly, something was going tk happen when you play the game for that long in own half. Ia it Hellbergs fault or just the lack of depth?? Happy to go with latter for now.

A please @labouruk.bsky.social, stop saying that it's up to us to stop Reform. YOU could stop a Reform government in 2029, by introducing the proportional representation so many in the country have been clamouring for. The only way Farage can win is through our crazy first-past-the-post system.

Can guarantee the grifting beer-soaked 70s novelty ashtray won’t be hiding from the press today. So while he’s crowing about the elections, can journalists do their job and ask Farage about the £5m donation he tried to hide? And where his girlfriend got the £885k to buy their Clacton house in cash?
