Balls of Steel those Lasses. They never give up. Mental strength throughout that whole set-up must be immense.

Can we get Tuchel, Barry and the FA to sit in on Weigman’s Lessons Learned Workshop?

Lee Anderson is proud of his jacket. He thinks it’s a Union Jack. Can you spot the mistake the Manufacturer has made? Did he get it from Temu?

The only thing I dislike about where I live, on a Main Road, is having to listen to the, I’m sure illegally, souped up exhausts of the brain dead wankers who think earsplitting decibels equate to the size their penis will be perceived to be, by… well who?

New syndrome on Threads and Twitter: I've called it Dictionary Dunning-Kruger (or Lexirage). It's when folks throw tantrums at Wordle or Connexions because a valid word isn't in their personal vocab. Not misspelled, not fake—just unfamiliar. Apparently if they don’t know it, it doesn’t exist.

One year ago today, on 4th July, we went to the polls.

We ended the disaster that 14 years of Tory rule had brought on us.

Steadily, things are improving.

You don't have to like EVERYTHING the Labour government does, but they are doing SO MUCH to improve our country.

And I am grateful for that!

I like different textures with my food and I just dipped a Nice biscuit into a honey yoghurt and my life has now changed.

154 years ago - Trade Union Act - June 29th 1871

Unions were now recognised as lawful associations. Prior to this, they were often treated as criminal conspiracies under common law.

Why working people complain about others protesting freely, about anything, is a total enigma to me.

My ‘bookmark’ was never time-sensitive. Only you thought that. That’s why I bookmarked it. To come back to. If I meant it to have a life of 24 hours I wouldn’t have marked it. I don’t have dementia. You can fuck off now until I need to access my bookmark.

All I’ll say is you’ve obviously never heard the term ‘Revenge is a dish best served cold’. My bookmark may stay there a loooong time.

Ring out Solstice Bells.

T’nights are fair drawing in.

(Although in reality I think t’mornings draw in first, but that doesn’t work)

It is ‘known’ as the Battle of Orgreave. Not enough characters available to draw the parallels with Peterloo that I wanted to (but have elsewhere), but you have stepped up to do that for me, which I expected someone to do.

The negatives mysteriously vanished, and police claimed the image may have been “foreshortened”—suggesting it could have been manipulated to make the officer appear closer than he was. This claim contributed to the DPP declining to pursue charges. Key documents and negatives also went missing

Today is the anniversary of the Battle of Orgreave 18/06/84. Hundreds of miners clashed with police, in what became one of the most controversial flashpoints in modern British industrial history.
There was later evidence of police misconduct and political orchestration. #peterloo

So… how did you guys ever reconcile the fact that the higher you turned the dial, the longer it took? How on earth did you think it was a higher heat? Surely that would shorten the time. Wow.

Should we follow Putin out of the ECHR?

Or is it just another Brexit where we give up our rights in the vain pursuit of making migrants disappear?

Even if it would be a victory overall, the fact that RFM got like 25% of the vote is concerning for Scotland. A lot of deep poverty exists in pockets, just like in the UK. Reform are unfortunately capable of tapping into disillision and marrying that to media fibs, more needs to be done.

Seems US utilities have to advise householders to check for ID, because the US govt is attempting entry into their homes by deception.
