    Gathering for Tommy / Discontent

    More fool them. Guaranteed that the far right has added members/strengthened in the last few days. They'll be picking up malcontents, becoming better organized etc. It's not a return to the days of when you used to see people openly selling the National Front newspaper outside football grounds...

    Gathering for Tommy / Discontent

    Canada not shy about calling it terrorism. Their govt do seem to like to use an -ism,-ist or -phobe.

    I see Carlisle and Lincoln just issued them.

    Gathering for Tommy / Discontent

    Problem is any discussion or debate these days very quickly seems to resort to someone being called some kind of "ist" or "phobe". Plus reasonable debate or discussion doesn't create "good television". Media companies want the fireworks.

    Gathering for Tommy / Discontent

    Can't they just use dispersal orders like they did when they started the crackdown on football hooliganism? Or are the numbers too big?

    Gathering for Tommy / Discontent

    Whether it's Facebook or Twitter or basically any other social media it's about profit rather than any moral high ground.

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Exactly. Harris's shortlist seems to be 4 white males.

    Rats in garden

    This. It'll include any standing structure in the garden, garden waste piles/compost bins, shady area under fences and bushy plants/shrubs that'll stop rain getting into a nest (as well as predators).

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Don't necessarily disagree but the original thread was are these really the best 2 candidates either party can put up? Harris seemingly got there because senior Democrats wanted to focus immediately on Presidential election rather than get caught up in nomination process. Plus I suspect they...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Harris has been a historically unpopular VP - little on her resume to suggest she's fit for the top job. Fair bit of whistleblowing from within her own office as she struggles to hold onto key advisers - accusations of laziness etc. Don't think anyone really listens to what Trump says about...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Kept saying that when it was Biden Vs Trump. Add in Harris & Vance and it's head scratching at best. American politics has fallen into the media/social media trap. More controversial you are - more coverage you get the more high profile you become - high profile must equal talent. Both Biden &...

    Rats in garden

    If they are not nesting on your property not a lot you can do. But the nest will be close by as they don't travel far. If you remove food sources then maybe they'll bother someone else.

    Backup RB or Experienced CB

    I'm watching too much American football - first reaction was running back or cornerback 😄

    Sad news about Graham Thorpe. Fine batsman in his day.

    Southport Stabbing

    Fully supportive of the social services actions if they believed a child (children) were at risk. Let's be honest it happens far too frequently than we'd like to think - over 103,000 in UK mainly for abuse and neglect according to children's charities. Social services having to deal with over...

    Southport Stabbing

    Isn't this just a " typical" social services case when they remove children believed to be at risk? If a child dies in a case where social services are aware of issues it also becomes national news. Maybe the media and politicians should have taken race out of it from the start.

    Cricket 2024

    Probably the worst county atm to try and come through the ranks at - with their big budget approach. Also with the downgrading of the 50 over comp a lot of counties take on players (mainly from ECB premier divisions) on small contracts tocover this period

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Actually more unpopular than Palin. An ego pick done without taking advice from outside of his sycophantic inner circle. Vance has little experience, not popular with many Republican politicians and closely associated with Project 2025 (which will become a major campaign issue). He's a weakness...

    F1 2024

    Bit of a British thing - we don't like our sporting stars to be too much of a personality?? His self-confidence often accused of being arrogance - maybe another British hang-up? For me he's an outstanding sportsman. In a sport so often dominated by drivers from wealthy backgrounds he's had to...

    You'd have thought they would have forked out at a time when they are desperately trying to raise new investment.
