Kind of mad how far Liverpool have fallen. Superb from City but not really that much to worry about surprisingly. Surprised they didn't want to mark Doku at all

Nigel Farage’s Reform Party Has Accepted Β£2.3 Million from Fossil Fuel Interests, Climate Deniers, and Polluters Since 2019 Election Reform UK has received more than Β£2.3 million from oil and gas interests, highly polluting industries, and climate science deniers since December 2019, amounting to 92 percent of the party’s donations...

Every day is a good day to point out that 92% of Reform's donations were found to come from figures and groups linked to the fossil fuel industry. @desmog.com

This. The leap from β€˜there needs to be space to test ideas that may not conform to consensus views’ to β€˜YOU MUST BE MADE UNCOMFORTABLE TO LEARN’ is wild, and I’m not sure I got the memo.

Apart from anything, I think it’s not at all educationally sound.

It puts them on a potential course to overtake the Conservatives and comes little more than a week after the Greens announced they had moved past the Liberal Democrats in membership numbers, getting to 83,500.

I’m not greatly interested in international football but after the recent news of my books being banned in Belarus, the otherwise mundane Scotland v Belarus fixture at Hampden tomorrow has taken on a bit of an edge.

Hey, you could be spot on. But the series hasn't let me down yet, whereas Bradshaw has on many occasions!

Hey, if Bradshaw doesn't like it, I'm almost certain to. He has an incredible track record of nonsense.

Dad’s books are full of empathy, common sense, and a healthy suspicion of the powerful. But at its heart his work is also about how systems keep people poor while pretending it’s their own fault. So I hope Kemi’s taking notes as well as reading the jokes.

And that Sainsbury's in Heaton Park is indeed incredible.
