    Even if you believe the emergency services respond based on race, which is ridiculous enough to start off with, how did they know who was in there? Is she suggesting they got hold of a list of residents and their skin colour before deciding how to respond? I thought maybe it was taken out of...

    Bakayoko

    I think the article might make it sound harsher than Robins intended if you just look at his quotes. The article makes it seem he's being bomb squadded and on his way out but Robins quotes seem more a kick up the backside to get his act together. Does sound like he's considering a change of...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    You must be furious with Johnson then. Twice voted against the withdrawal agreement and three times to delay leaving.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    If the government still wanted to have a vote on the deal why not do it on Saturday as planned? Seems pointless to call off the vote on Saturday and then try and bring it back on Monday knowing there's a good chance the speaker will turn it down. That is of course assuming they genuinely want...

    Some good news

    Probably fell off and they can't afford to fix it!

    Some good news

    Counting season tickets even if they don't turn up I can understand as its a paid for ticket. Giving away 3K tickets to people who ran a race and have expressed no interest in attending a game and then adding them all to the attendance is a bit of a farce.

    Some good news

    They traditionally start their season with a fancy dress day, this year they chose to come as sky blue seats. I don't understand why they keep inflating attendance to a point that it is so obvious what they are doing. If they added a bit on and claimed it was something like 9.5K you'd have...

    SBT vote on the Boris Johnson withdrawal agreement.....

    The EU brought in those restrictions at the request of the UK government due to concerns the stocks were dropping to levels where the ability to repopulate is impacted. But even if you ignore that do you think if we leave it will just be a free for all where you can do whatever you like? Or is...

    Environmental protesters get sorted!

    Was a chap from the ambulance service on 5 Live when the protests were taking place on Westminster Bridge who said response times had improved as the protesters moved for ambulances unlike the congestion which they normally experience.

    Wasps downward spiral...

    It seems like its pretty hard to do as they've made it so only one team goes down but if they did somehow manage to get relegated then I can see their future mirroring ours. The 'just want to watch top class rugby' argument would go out the window and crowds would drop like a stone. Imagine them...

    VAR

    VAR shambles in the Spurs Watford game today. Watford had a clear penalty not given. Then Spurs score a late goal which clearly hit Ali's arm. VAR in the stadium says no goal, ref gives the goal, now being claimed they put up the wrong thing on the screen.

    Match Thread MK Dons vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 19th Oct

    Hiwula is so frustrating. Gets into positions but doesn't seem able to do anything with it. Didn't even get a shot off there.

    Match Thread MK Dons vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 19th Oct

    Is it the camera angle or is there hardly any MK fans there?

    Best Stand-ups

    If we're going old school I went down a YouTube hole of watching the likes of Cannon and Ball and Freddie Starr recently. They could both have a crowd in the palm of their hands.

    Best Stand-ups

    Bill Burr, Roy Wood Jr, Ricky Gervais, Peter Kay, Reg D Hunter, Chris Rock and Kevin Hart are on my list along with the legend that was Bill Hicks. Current favourite is Lewis Black. Shame he hardly ever comes over here. Not a surprise when he plays big shows in the states but was at Glee in...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Under this plan if we get to the end of the transition period in December 2020 without an agreement won't we still come out with no deal?

    Suspect the magic money tree will be given a good shake.

    SBT vote on the Boris Johnson withdrawal agreement.....

    Mad isn't it. Johnson is being lauded for going back to the deal first offered by the EU. One that he called "the worst of all worlds" and JRM called "cretinous". Even May said it was "a deal that no British prime minister could accept".
