That’s what I thought! I thought, “I bet you can’t even see his todge under his massive bloated gut!” Great minds, Suhari, great minds.

The scariest part of that interview is where he doesn’t seem to understand what a government bond is.

I'm sure they will be surprised to be relegated.

All valid questions but lack of ease isn’t an excuse for lack of action or application.

Do I want to “ban the internet”? No. Is there a clear and significant threat to societal norms and democratic accountability presented by micro-targeted adverts and huge databases of personal informational being made available on networks capable of functioning as the most immediate, most visible, most voluble propaganda machine in history? Yes. Should attempts be made to do something about it? Yes. Is it too late? Maybe. Is the least that intelligent people can do, to recognise the issue and try to be more cognizant of the risks? Yes.

The country has needed strong opposition and has been given the political equivalent of a beret wearing, Che Guevara poster loving, stickered satchel, sixth former.

Because those people don't have reach or legitimacy. They are just ignorant pub bores. Look at the cheap Tory Twitter stunt this week. Parties and organisations with some ostensible credibility use these networks to knowingly spread lies. That's qualitatively different to an ill-informed pub bore talking ****e. If you can't see that then you are probably pretty high up the target list yourself.

That it benefitted us?

Yes, I think so. And if you are selected by certain algorithms, someone will be willing to pay so that content appears to you. And don't forget that Facebook also owns Instagram and WhatsApp. Google owns YouTube, Android OS and dozens of native apps, online search monopoly, sponsored adverts, and its parent company is acquiring FitBit.

No, your Facebook data is used to target you with things you and your friends did not ask for. It’s more like being in the pub and not being able to talk to your friend because some **** is shouting things at you. But at the same time those same things are being shouted in all pubs.

No excuse at all. Just chop it along the turf with a bit of back spin. Complete incompetence and lack of intelligence to play it the way he did.

Lowest common denominator.

Giving tyrants, idiots and other malignants unnecessary and undesirable reach and amplification, or feeding them pernicious lies and half-truths. These companies rule the Western world. Not governments. Sacha Baron Cohen gave a speech on this. And he is correct: Ironically, it is posted on YouTube, of course. You can also read it in the Guardian: https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2019/nov/22/sacha-baron-cohen-facebook-propaganda

Obafemi looks a bit untidy sometimes but he was often chasing lost causes and battling to hold the ball up, which he generally did well. But he also clearly has an eye for a pass, which created our second goal and was quite similar to the pass he played at Krap Nottarf for Ings to score.
-
Not regular starters but did well today. That is all.
-
Yes, he made the chance but that pass was inexcusable. No need to lift it at speed. Just rubbish.

What? VAR checked it and he wasn't offside.

Yep. We should have scored at least 4.

Not really.

Predictable

Stephens with a pretend head injury. Nice.

Should have sealed it there.
