F Scott Fitzgerald could have been writing about Epstein files: "They were careless people... they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made."

Their pies were on a different level and the highlight of some #Pompey matchdays for me 😥

Having served on NHS Boards, I’d love to see the amount of scrutiny NHS and other public sector Boards/Audit committees gave Palantir contracts, when it came to the Risk Register/Mapping. FOI requests incoming?

🚨WOW! The Petition calling for by-elections to be called automatically when MPs defect to another party now has almost 75,000 signatures! Let’s get it to the 100,000 needed! petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73...

Petition: By-elections to be called automatically when MPs defect to another party When an MP decides they want to defect to another party a by-election should be automatically triggered to allow the constituents the opportunity have their democratic right to agree or not with their...

This makes no sense…

An MP can wake up one morning, ditch the party you elected them for, & sign up to a completely different manifesto…

No thanks

If they defect to a different party, we should get a vote

Sign the petition & help make that law.

Reminder of the spectacularly poor judgement of these people

I was there. Still not forgiven the ref for sending off Brian Bromley for a foul he didn’t commit. #Pompey

Yes, confused with playing alongside him for Hampshire Schools at Havant GS.

Peter Ellis. Southern Grammar. A few years older than the other 2 who I played with/against many times Fozzie, SJC and Clive Green, Havant Grammar. #Pompey

Even the Bristol City fans are bored #Pompey

Happy New Year #Pompey fans. Lovely morning for a trip to Bristol City.

Yes, of course. Was that the season full of promise, that expensively assembled #Pompey didn’t win at home until October?

74/75 - the season of marquee signings when #Pompey were going up 🤔

A flow chart shows 17.4 million leave voters in 2016, vs 16.1m remain. In 2025, 5 million of those people have died, and 3 million new voters have come of age. The result (plus some people changing their mind) is 19.8 million voters now back rejoin, versus just 11.7 million wanting to stay out.

Absolutely amazing chart from @peterkellner.bsky.social's piece in @thenewworldmag.bsky.social today:

Due to illness, 1 x Swansea v #Pompey ticket available. Can meet at ground. DM if interested.

Just because it's reached the 100,000 threshold, doesn't mean anything will happen.

So keep signing and sharing, because we need to show MPs that there's a huge demand.

Russian influence petition surges past 100,000 signatures A petition demanding a full inquiry into Russian influence in UK politics has passed 100,000 signatures

A petition demanding inquiry into Russian influence in UK politics surged past 100,000 signatures at remarkable speed. Of note is the strength of support from Wales “because the Welsh news media gave Nathan Gill’s treason the coverage it deserved.” #ReformUK

Isn’t the definition of insanity, doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result? #Pompey seem to be relying on the law of averages 🤷🏼‍♂️

Why wouldn’t you want to know? What have you got to fear? Losing your precious Brexit? Being revealed as a traitor and a liar?
Surely, anyone decent and honest who genuinely cares about our country and our democracy has nothing to lose from this. So, sign up.

Feeling like Stoke away last season #Pompey

Oh…another set piece goal 🤔 #Pompey

They don’t even understand the game. Even watching a replay at h/t for the umpteenth time, “either side of the keeper and that would be a goal”. Er…the ref clearly blows for a free-kick to #Pompey 🙄

I was going to add “making a rare appearance of the bench” 😉

Not Eoin Hand then! 🤷🏼‍♂️ Mick Travers?

👌🏻 I remember seeing that picture (though probably not at the time) That’s him then, definitely 👍🏻. Still think that’s Harry Harris on the right though. George Smith was blonde and had a crew cut at the time if I recall.

I wondered that but was he @pompey in ‘68?
