Raab has just said in PMQs "It’s far too early to make international comparisons". Here's a chart the government releases every day

You've perfectly illustrated my point. You say voters intelligence shouldn't be questioned yet you cite the likes of "20,000 new police officers" and "40 new hospitals and 50,000 new nurses" as reasons for the Conservatives winning. Things that were quickly and easily shown to be false. You say...

Update on the training centre planning application for the site in Henly from Henley Sports Centre Alliance. Currently objections far outweigh support. Interestingly of the 6 comments in favour, saying it will benefit the area 3 are from Coventry, 1 from Kent, 1 from Wiltshire and 1 from...

After Brexit it was said that one of the lefts biggest issues was regarding voters as stupid yet the reasons put forward for the Conservatives winning, the claims of additional police, nurses and hospitals, amount to calling voters stupid as they were so quickly and easily shown to be false.

Couple of days ago we were discussing the total figures the FT were publishing using their modelling which was based on the most recent ONS figures. It was suggested that this was a high figure due to scaremongering / to make the government look bad. Sadly with the release yesterday of updated...

Even Johnson wouldn't use this as an excuse to miss another PMQs would he?

Heard someone comment on the radio yesterday that it was only a few years ago that having an affair was enough to bring down a PM. Now we've got one whose wikipedia page lists 6 or 7 children! Isn't he still married to his second wife while being engaged to Symonds and having a kid with her...

Think CVC are trying to buy into other leagues as well. Could they be the ones behind the breakaway, cherry pick the best teams for a league they have complete control of?

There's even talk about the whole league reverting to amateur. Can't see them needing a 30K stadium if that happens. Surely all the best players would leave and the level would be nearer to what you'd get at CRFC.

The stuff with the TV deal is predictable. Remember having an argument with Italia about the level of exposure Wasps gave Ricoh by being on TV all the time. Looked up the viewing figures and they were shocking bad. Us being on Sky once got more viewers than every Wasps game combined! See...

There's not a sane person on that show!

This seems to be gaining traction so not easily dismissed as something the Mail have made up. One report I read quoted an unnamed Premiership club chief exec as saying only Bristol, Exeter and Bath have owners able to cope with the current situation comfortably.

Suspect it would be nearer 100 at our level. There was only 300 at the England v Croatia behind closed doors game, think how many media would have been at that compared to our games.

He needs to come on here to get more reliable information. Someone posted earlier that the players were already aware the season was cancelled and voided!

All sorts of legal action would start up. For example only needs one lawyer to agree take on all season ticket holders across the league and take a small percentage of any win. You haven't got what you paid for, simple as that. Same with sponsors, advertisers, TV contracts and pretty much every...

Completely agree. Everything that is being raised as an issue with restarting now could continue being an issue when next season is due to start. Pointless rushing to cancel this season not knowing what is happening weeks or month down the line.

Sad to see really but this is absolutely true. Such a shame when you think of how important the Telegraph and Pink were in the past. I'd happily pay for decent coverage, maybe one day we'll be back in the Prem and get covered by The Athletic.

PL clubs won't do anything unless its to their benefit. Wouldn't be surprised if they'd happily let the whole EFL fold to be replaced by PL2 made up of their reserves.

Their current plan is to resume on 9th May. They're waiting on government approval, Merkel is apparently meeting with regional leaders this week. There's reports that if they don't get the go ahead over a third of clubs won't survive.

Telegraph reported they had paid the fees ordered by the court. Believe they were paid in instalments. if they hadn't the council could take legal action, its not optional its a court order.
