Sarah Pochin tells England football team to keep winning to keep DV down - unbelievable - maybe she should have a word with her supporters instead.

Seems you can't actually find a Reform supporter in Makerfield if you are Nigel Farage

I was coming to post the videos, couldn't believe it was real but it is.

I liked reading this story . An antidote to Pochin and her ilk :

Or maybe, just maybe, they could NOT beat their wives or girlfriends.

I don't think Rashford etc should be held responsible for women's safety.
Perhaps the men involved can take responsibility for that.

Yes, the last paragraph is what I was about to say. When England lose this can be yet another thing they can blame Black players for.

Drop this here as I am sure it will be appreciated

"No if course I haven't watched them ?" 😂

Is anyone planning to set their alarm for the Makerfield result?

Is there a thread about allowing 7 years olds up to watch it ?

Should I start one ?

I’ll still be awake I suspect.

Nigel Farage, Boris Johnson and Kemi Badenoch are headlining a conference next week, speaking to a crowd of anti-abortion activists, far-right politicians and oil executives

No couldn't care less to be honest. I'm not beholden to to the media circus that will ensue no matter what the result.

Hopefully well away from any questions about how the UK should respond to US Trump pressure to abandon sanctions against Iran.

This is a good example of why Badenoch's claims that she wouldn't prop up Farage, despite the Spectator piece, fail to ring true to me.

The spirit of the Tartan Army extends beyond football, so my post aims to hit two birds with one stone. I will pay tax if it all goes pear-shaped.

Guy standing for Aberdeen South has his own song. He’s a wee bit neurodivergent, said my psychiatrist friend.

What a vile woman she is. I don't think she's realised what she's implied though.

It's clear she hates England.

A lot cash sloshing around from American right wing funders/think tanks.
ADF sending a dozen people is concerning. They are largely focused on reproductive rights and specifically anti abortion.

Mnhq have reinstated your post @DuncinToffee . Human error apparently!

Thanks for querying it

I hope the intern doesn't lose their 'job'.

Even if AB wins the by election, he may find it's not quite what he expected (a crowning as a PM in waiting.. )
It seems like the right wing vote will be split, which may well give him the victory, but he will not have much support locally and many labour voters (like me) are pretty pissed at him planning to challenge KS and cosplaying being a "regular guy".
I'd also feel fairly annoyed if I'd voted for him as mayor.
Nothing like a bit of blind ambition, eh?

Agree, I’m assuming she is as stupid as she comes across if not then she is even more of an awful human being.
Temperance also agree with your post upthread another one who would sell all belonging to her get a sniff of power.

Those attending the summit in London next week epitome of you are judged by the company you keep wouldn’t have thought much evidence of protecting rights of women with that shower mouthing off.

I’ve been spectacularly fed up the last few days, what with those fuckwits in wales the awful awful placards in Makerfield with women actually standing by them & smiling for the photo opportunity & one apparently a local councillor it enrages me & at the same time it’s so depressing that these people are spouting off representing some of the electorate is this really what we are becoming it’s not fear for me more for my dgd’s I don’t want a country that is so seemingly full of hatred, bile, greed & so little care for fellow citizens.
just taken myself off to water the baskets/pots cheer myself up am delighted that for once they are thriving I’m no gardener so sharing a photo.
