Manchester City cheated Premier League rules, the Commission found. Did it also cheat HMRC? We've examined the decision and leaked Mancini documents. We think City likely failed to pay £12m in tax. There should be a criminal investigation. Thread:

This should be the moment people finally realise that Farage has turned them into fascists. If you’re choosing this dangerous inhumanity over the rescue work of the RNLI, you’ve lost your minds to racism and hatred.

The road to fascism is lined with bigots telling you you’re over-reacting, I have said this many times. The RNLI volunteers who launch in all weathers to save lives are the best of us, just like the nurses, doctors, carers, cleaners etc. Reform are fascistic bigots, and must not be tolerated.

Just look at the glee on Nigel Farage’s face as he watches a Piddington resident cry about the overt racism she, her Caribbean heritage husband, and their two children have felt in the village during the referendum. Time and again he’s showing us exactly who he is.

The BBC and other broadcasters have swallowed the right's small boat invasion narrative hook, line and sinker. They have no interest in reporting a fall in crossings - especially as the weather cannot be blamed. Normal service will be resumed if numbers start rising again.

Andy Burnham: Plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose. I have very little faith that a man so deeply rooted in the mechanisms of Labour and Parliament will affect any meaningful change, simply because he speaks with a northern accent and wears a vest. I sincerely hope I’m wrong. #Burnham

I watched the Egypt v Argentina game with the same sinking feeling I get watching ANY premiership game, that certain understanding that the outcome of the game is being manipulated by the people who are getting rich off the sport. VAR is not a tool of justice, it’s a tool of control. #VAR #LFC

You have to admire the chutzpah of the BBC’s response to the Trump lawsuit www.ft.com/content/d2a0...
In response, the BBC has sought to identify the financial impact of the documentary, including serving a subpoena on the Donald J Trump Revocable Trust, which holds the president's business interests and assets. It is managed by his eldest son, Donald Trump Jr, who is the sole trustee.
The BBC legal team has requested the production of financial documents that reflect its holdings and value, assets, inventories and lists of properties held. This includes information regarding almost 400 entities owned by or associated with the trust, as well as requests for tax returns, according to court filings in May.

I had thought they’d give him another season, but I think he lost the players support over Mo, it’s not the usual Liverpool way, we usually stick by our managers, and sometimes for too long, clearly not this time. Go well Arné, good luck, thanks for No 20.

This is a major reason to support Labour under Burnham if, and it’s a huge if, he actually pushes it through with the majority he inherits. No-one bar the lib dems has backed PR before, and they’re not sitting on a massive majority right now, and never will be. PR is essential in the UK.
