Shocking. The “Everton but a bit more” comparisons need to end. This is way beyond financial fair play in a sport.

On a fair few occasions I have seen a depleted (written off!) Everton squad with their back against the wall come out fighting. It’s just usually February at that point. COYBs!!

Reform are finished but last night was just another domino toppling. Next comes campaign money moving as donors see unlectability and reputiational risk. Then active people move (policy, activists, candidates). Same assessment as money but slower. Finally voters move. And bot money dries up.

I am old enough to remember when everything they didn’t like was “woke”. Now everything they don’t like is the “Establishment”. It’s hard to keep up.

"This is a genuine first in UK politics. Never before has a politician announced their intention to run for re-election on an explicitly pro-sleaze, anti-transparency ticket." bylinetimes.com/2026/07/08/n....

Nigel Farage’s 'Pro-Sleaze' By-Election Is A Sign Of Terminal Weakness
The Reform leader's desperate decision to call a back-me-or-sack-me by-election is a sign of a politician who knows he is finally being exposed for the man he really is, argues Adam Bienkov

Now they have introduced PAR (Presidentially Assisted Refereeing) will Everton be doubly shafted next season? VAR has not served us well and now this!

The Social Media ban for children doesn’t go far enough. It should be extended to those who behave like children online too. X would become a ghost town in no time.

I may not hold many politicians in high regard but the phrase “they’re all as bad as each other” really annoys me. Nope. Some are wrong ‘uns and objectively worse People are actually going to vote for this guy over Andy Burnham - or splurge their vote on principle rather than stop this horror show

For the “Unite” the Kingdom thing - did the Government ban Foreign agitators or the general public? Could have fit them all in a single Spoons! Have we now moved on from shouting at hotels and painting roundabouts as acceptable? Hope so.

Movie Pitch: Iranian Turkey Bacon. Reboot of the John Candy classic ‘Canadian Bacon’. Plot. US President comes under pressure as allegations that he is a child sex offender surface. So he distracts the world by launching a military action against Iran. Too far fetched for a movie?

First of all be lying if I said I wasn’t joyful Reform were rejected. Despite online noise it’s true that #BotsCantVote Secondly, Starmer is going to struggle to not let this spiral to a May hammering and his own end. Only Labour winner is Burnham - next by-election, blocking him will be harder.

Let’s try and see it from the other side. If a court told you that you couldn’t see your kids and women avoid being near you. If you hated all aspects of your lonely sad life and you found yourself regularly in ‘Spoons at 9am. Then you too might be tempted to paint a roundabout or two.
