In memoriam...

FIFA really does just want football to die

hardly anyone will watch Starmer's appearance at Labour conference today but it was probably the best speech he's ever given

he clearly signposted what he stands for - a diverse, tolerant, decent Britain - and how be believes progressives are in an existential fight with the populist right

Even in the second half?

Many migrant workers who came to Qatar to build the 2022 WC infrastructure found themselves jobless after the tournament. @josimarfootball.bsky.social reveals how some of them have been recruited by the Russian army, are fighting and die on the Ukrainian front.

I feel a little bit sick. That was too much

GET THE FUCK IN, THAT'S A HUGE WIN!

Interesting - how was it? Looks claustrophobic

Erm… what is going on here?!

Sounds fabulous! Show it off when it’s finished

Classic! So many pockets? She’s an organised gal 😉

All the essentials! What kind of bag?

Ooo what have they got you doing so far?

As of Cech is that low down… really did not like that signing at all!

If you ever had any doubts of what a shit hole the Tory party has left us in, this all you need to look at.

And to expect change overnight, or even within 5 years, is fanciful

This exhibition was incredible! What a fantastic human being

Oh right! I get that - totally thought I missed something. Feels like we outgrew what he offered about two seasons ago and then left it way too late to decide we should sell him. Now he’s not really got much of an incentive to leave…

Any particular reason? Have I missed something? 🫣🫣

Yes, totally needs to move on and play but you don’t like him?

Since Özil! Love when it just happens 🫰

Asif Aziz almost forced out one West End cinema. Is he doing it again? To undermine one central London cinema may be regarded as a misfortune; to do it twice two looks like carelessness.

Asif Aziz almost forced out London’s Prince Charles Cinema earlier this year. Is he trying the same again with Picturehouse Central - and is another major central London cinema under threat from the same landlord? www.londoncentric.media/p/picturehou...

Damn! That’s love right there

something I keep thinking about and which I can't make up my mind on is: were swathes of the right, centre-right and, in some cases, the centre, full of racists hiding their beliefs for decades, or are these people all incredibly suggestible? neither answer is good!

It’s been an eclectic little while - but hey, happy #LetterboxdFriday!

#LastFourWatched

Just attended the Berlin protest against Israel’s mass starvation of Palestinian civilians. Hundreds in attendance, policing was mild to start with but then sharply turned aggressive. This is the best sign that I saw there.

One thing that's striking about Ozzy Osborne's death is how difficult it is to imagine the music industry producing another figure like him. The barriers to working class people are so great, and there's a related attitude to culture that is neutered as a result.
