He used the correct figures in an nterview with the Telegraph.

You could have got that story from the BBC but no, for some reason you read Al Jazeera for balanced news coverage.

Great Britain men playing Italy in the curling, first end: GB lying 1 shot up with 6 stones in the house, 2 British and 4 Italian, have the last stone of the end. The skipper could play safe and easily score 1, but gets greedy and tries to get a 2 - ends up removing all the GB stones and leaves the Italians scoring 4.

My wife's birthday is the 12th so we combine the 2 then, but she accepts she won't get flowers due to the inflated prices ( she prefers plants for the garden anyway, and we have a huge red rose bush in the front garden ).

The Manchester Evening News held a hustings for the candidates for the upcoming by-election: "Making his way into the room last of the five candidates with an earpiece-sporting bodyguard in tow, Reform UK's Matt Goodwin shook hands with his rivals. "Welcome to Manchester," he was told by Labour's Angeliki Stogia."

The stupid thing is, when a Democrat hecomes the next President he/she can just turn things back 180 degrees and reinstate the sane position. Who would have thought that appointing a panel of strongly climate sceptic "experts" to review the evidence would lead to a conclusion that the established position is a "scam"?

Deflects from Starmer's problems and gives him a chance to look decisive.

Why not just accept that there weren't many black people in Tudor England ?

England hung on to beat Nepal by 4 runs, Italy easily beat Nepal by 10 wickets.

The vast majority of boys born to muslim families in the UK will have some variation of that name given to them either as first or second name. If the vast majority of non muslim boys were called Richard the number would be vastly greater. It is just sympthomatic of how names are assigned, generally there are far more "traditional" british names to choose from.

Isn't a "colonist" somebody who carries out enemas ?

It isn't the actors, per se, it's the revisionist history that comes with it. Yes a non-white actress can play Jane Seymour or Anne Boleyn, but the accompanying claims that the real historical characters were "people of colour" is what offends. For instance, in the recent drama about the Norman invasion, the Earl of Northumbria was played by a non white actor as part of a "colour blind" approach to casting. This is all well and good, but historical accuracy is thrown out the window. Do you think you could get away with castng Laurence Olivier as Othello these days ?

They don't get complaints, or at least don't understand all the mockery and piss taking that happens in the local language they can't he arsed to learn as they sit in their Little England ghettos. Try being English in rural Wales.

Why not put each other on ignore ?;-)

Should the Ukrainian skeleton rider have been allowed to compete in his memorial helmet?

Probably limited to that level because the transfer window is shut and therefore we can't sign from another EFL club.

Camellia

If only the President was subpoena'd.

Going bak to Trump's comment on Bad Bunny, "I didn't understand a word of what he was saying", presumably he has never been to the Opera.

Without trying to be controversial, the racial demographic of people appearing in adverts is far from representative of the UK population as a whole both as individuals and in the composition of couples. How people respond to this varies widely. I suspect that advertisers are trying to tick as many boxes as possible so that no group feels excluded.

But you have since ?

I assume that as Jones has previously started for a number of EFL clubs he would have to play.

If ever a transfer qualified as "INSANE".......

Not sure if mentioned already somewhere https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/c9dnll5gp1go
