Gloucester Saint

Wasn’t always the case under Ashdown and Kennedy, but Ed is just AWOL.

The people posting about the attacker being non-white are more Stone Island customers than Lacoste.

Those apples really do grow well in your farm!

From an economic and Ukraine/NATO perspective I understand why but look where it’s got them.

Can’t we deport him to America or Israel where he’d fit in better? If South Africa still had Apartheid I’d say send him there. (Tongue in Cheek) BTW, if that had been a Jihadist roaming around like that there’d be 100 posts on here within an hour and wall-to-wall news coverage. Far right and Islamic extremism are equally dangerous and need to be stamped on but something to bear in mind next time someone whines about ‘two tier’.

More intense spells of weather patterns with climate change as well. If you’re the groundsman for the third test, some real extremes the pitch is exposed to in the lead up. Seen it in Australia as well last winter. Throw in white ball batting habits and it leads to some exciting cricket but collapses if the pitch/overheads vary by a millimetre.

More Trump-Meloni bickering. Don’t like her and what she stands for but spot on here https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cgqj77909jpo No Western leader who has been friendly with him or tried to pacify him has benefited from it. In fact he’s been like a highly toxic chemical.

Reform angry with the Makersfield and Aberdeen by-election results then.

They did, but I think they’ve helped boost the intensity of attacking/counter-attacking through many of the games.

And again. Sweden look overwhelmed,

Good goal by the Dutch inside 5 minutes by Brobbey. Of Sunderland who are good at player recruitment. Gyokeres nearly equalises straight away.

Wonder if the Americans might try the old Russian window on a high floor technique with Mad Ben, or it be found that he and Ben Givr had undiagnosed heart failure.

Ought to be automatic hearing if neither side gets a batting point. Context of course - the preceding weather and level of movement off the actual pitch v overheads. Lord’s should be dug up and use drop-in pitches until the new square beds in. Any surface where the keeper takes it around their ankles, if that high, needs to go. The extremes of weather made it worse but it has been low and poor for many years now.

We’re over 200 ahead, need Organ to carry on beyond to get us 250+ to give Kyle the Organgrinder enough to work with.

The Indy headline 7 days ago about going relentlessly after Boris, Gove and Farage and rubbing their nose in their own shit was spot on. https://www.magzter.com/stories/newspaper/The-Independent/BREXITS-BEEN-A-DISASTER-ITS-TIME-THE-GUILTY-FELT-ASHAMED?srsltid=AfmBOop5uu84-W5FgyafiQ5S-xFjyMNLB25XYmaZzW-Hd5n4318KqUKB I know Labour will bottle it as they’re trying to woo Red Wall areas but why the fuck aren’t the Lib Dem’s really going after those three cunts? 10 years on and fucked our economy. Wankers.

Exactly the figure I posted from a senior figure I know at the BoE a few months ago.

Sussex could be subject to an ECB points deduction if this carries on.

Oh gawd, we’re probably going to end up with a ‘the Burnham years’ thread aren’t we?

Three batting points when every other side is in double figures is pathetic. They’re so reliant on Lehmann that when he fails, it all fails. Gubbins at least seems to be on an uptick of form and Prest did better yesterday. And Sussex were missing their two frontline bowlers Robinson and Crocombe! So they got skittled by a fringe attack on a not-too bad deck. Great effort lads! But although the overseas isn’t as useless as Yusuf or Hampton, it’s astonishing that so-called cricket professionals couldn’t spot yet again that we needed a top quality overseas batsman to give our bowlers something to work with. Needs to be a total rebuild next year. Rasmus Ankerson syndrome, massive squad but very few FC calibre players within it. If we don’t, D2 basement looms for many years.

Mind you, the actual supposed party for re-joining the EU - if Davey had the cojones - only got 128 more tbf. Lib Dem’s are about as visible as Ross Stewart 2023-25. I vote for them but Ed’s about as effective as Starmer is. The table shows the extent of tactical voting for both Labour and Reform. Rupert kept his deposit and it’s a start, but Lib Dem, Green and Tory really made up space on the ballot. They didn’t make up the numbers in who voted.

Very much agree with this. A well-hung Parliament.

For around here, on paper the ideal candidate. Family man, long-serving RAF officer (RAF policeman IIRC) and very well-regarded. Beyond the easier due diligence on who has been posing Hitler memes or calling for all disabled people to be euthanised on X, it’s actually arguable that these people find the parties as much as the parties finding them.

Unusual to not have some context for arrest initially but they’ve now said coercive behaviour and assault. Ex-RAF and seemingly popular and decent bloke https://news.sky.com/story/lib-dem-mp-arrested-and-suspended-from-party-13555467

84/3. Albert 20, Orr only 3 and Lehmann a rare early perish for 10. Gubbins 48 no, Prest 0 no. One of those wickets where you need to see both side bat on it.
