Great to get 3 points #lufc, but the best things from today for me are:
1. We have a centre forward who can score "centre forward" type goals
2. We have a person who can hit the goal instead of the stand from outside the box
Reasons to be cheerful!

Think we've done alright so far. Bettered an established EPL team away and in London too, which is never a happy hunting ground for us. Sound in defence and midfield. Can we keep it going though? #lufc

I find it difficult to comprehend that we were left relying on Fulham, a likely close competitor in the race to stay up, to sell us a player we wanted on the last day of the season. Why would they? To my very simple mind it was obvious they would tag us along and ultimately let us down.

which are poised to expand 0.7%, 0.6% & 0% respectively."

Pro-immigration policies and green energy adoption behind socialist Spainโ€™s burgeoning economy Spain's welcoming and liberal approach to immigration is paying economic dividends.

A success story from a country with a left-wing government, a wealth tax, a humane policy on immigration, and sensible management of the energy transition, and within the EU.

Lessons for #Starmer.
