So you saying they or their families don't use schools, doctors, hospitals, don't travel on roads, don't benefit from street lighting, don't have their rubbish collected, never need the police or fire brigade, don't apply for driving licences/passports etc. Sure I've missed any more.

He played the percentages knowing that he could get told to give the place back or could get a penalty.

Making decisions in split seconds in what these drivers are good at.

The chief of Ineos which describes itself as 'a global manufacturer of petrochemicals, speciality chemicals and oil products....' isn't happy about things which impact his industry and therefore his wealth. I'm shocked......

Here's the son of a former KGB spy, who Boris Johnson overruled secret service advice in order to hand a seat in the House of Lords, calling a piece blaming Russia's invasion of Ukraine on NATO a "great and very well informed read".

"Good to see Russia's point of view is no longer taboo", he says.

My biggest worry is the spate of injuries, Field out for season, Chair probably too, no JCS, Frey/Lloyd/Smyth not fully fit, Varane out but we don't know how long for. Add to that how poor Colback, Morgan and Yang were tonight.

Got to hope we get a few back for Stoke after the international break.

I thought West Brom were terrified of him which is why they took turns in fouling him. Furlong got sent off for fouling him and Bartley and Holgate got booked for fouls on him. There were another couple of tackles on him that should have been free kicks/cards which the ref bottled out on.

So while Trump banned the Associated Press from the Oval Office, a reporter from Russia's state-owned news agency TASS was allowed in to cover his attack on Zelensky

On 15 March 1939 Hitler and his deputy summoned the Czech President to Hitler’s residence in Berlin and then bullied him to submitting to a German invasion of his country.
They drove him to the point of physical collapse, threatening him until he eventually signed his country’s death warrant.

VAR should have 30 seconds to make a decision. If they can't make one in that time, then you go with the onfield decision.

Richard Madeley claims that every single phone call he recieved was in support of Suella Braverman’s plan to leave the ECHR.

If he is a liar, Like.
If he needs to be kicked off TV, RP.

A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Auschwitz took time.
