Morrissey's list. Johnny Marr on it three times. As is Morrissey himself. Possibly due to self-hate. And Canada.
Joachim Clement has predicted the last three World Cup winners. He predicts the Netherlands beat Portugal in the final: the former defeating Morocco, Canada, France & Spain. Scotland make history getting to the second round: where if they got past South Korea would meet England in the third round!
For over a decade Farage supporters & his enablers in the media have insisted Farage is not far-right or racist. Such folk owe the UK an apology as Farage makes explicit his far-right, racist, white supremacist, ethno-nationalist 'little Englanderism'.
Roy Hattersley (1932-2026) was a titan in the Labour Party compared to today's minows. Despite being a Labour right-winger, he was principled, idealist & engaged with ideas writing thoughtfully on democratic socialism. The sort of person who would not be tolerated in Starmer's Labour.
Outside the Westminster bubble version of Britain things are very different including in Makerfield. Robert Crampton of The Times spoke to 20 voters seven of whom did not know a by-election was on. Some had no understanding of democracy or that they were entitled to vote.
The ITV World Cup panel has its English contingent debating whether it is a good thing when Germany don't turn up and play well in World Cups. Good to get in touch with English anti-German sentiment so early in the #FIFAWorldCup.
Anyone beyond Labour's huge payroll vote of MPs defending Keir Starmer as PM has to be asked: why? What purpose is served by aiding Starmer clinging to office & extending the corpse of his Premiership before he & the country are put out their misery?
“I would rather vote for Jimmy Savile than Labour”: a Reform endorsed message in Makerfield as Reform councillor Gemma Painter campaigns for Rob Kenyon. HT @reformexposed.bsky.social
