Went to Shetland last year and they have designed the perfect futuristic utopia - public loos and EV chargers seemingly every 50 yards. The rest of the UK... not so toilet friendly

That 10 minute drive can now be a 1hr 45 minute journey involving a bus and 2 train journeys going to and from the nearest city. That's fine for primary school kids, right? Obviously I couldn't take them as if be stranded at their school and couldn't get to work on time

It also depicts John Redwood's ancestors fighting against John Redwood's ancestors and that makes John Redwood sad

Why have the UK ordered more F35s which are only usable with US assistance instead of alternative fighters from the EU?

"we reoriented the economy to the private sector" comes across as a positive to the ignorant. "Business owners got rich at the expense of the public" wouldn't come across so well

Since #htafc got relegated from the premier League there's been a strange obsession by every manager to force players into systems that don't suit them. Injuries aside, play players in their best positions. If they aren't good enough then buy better. Also, sign forwards who can actually score

Just before the goal I realised we never pass like that. When do we have 10 passes or more? Our tactic seems to be hit and hope which leaves the forwards isolated. Also I don't know how ladapo is a professional footballer

Thankfully, wealthy rulers making poor people fight for them only to abandon their needs was only a brief part of history. We'll never see the likes of that again

It's on the sky sports app if you have it. Difficult to tell the amount of contact from the camera angle though

Prepare for a striker that has a goal record worse than granny with a Zimmer frame

I predict he'll go for 3 terms and then try to remove/extend the term limit. Or a war - he'll argue no one wants elections in wartime, it's unpatriotic

If Trump changes the law to allow a 3rd term (non-consecutive etc), could Obama run for president again?

The next great schism will be between the righteous December decorators and the ungodly, satanic November decorators. Eventually they will unite in a holy war against pre-November decorators

I'm old enough to remember when @htafc.bsky.social had strikers who could score. It was a long time ago. Feels like another lifetime
