Can't have Socialist policies like universal healthcare or state pensions. Pure evil, bordering on Communism.

Since it was suggested that their new stadium ought to be named the "Donald J Trump Stadium", the Washington Commanders have lost every game.

"Asked before the second Test to describe the "Australian way of playing Test cricket", Smith said: "Adapting to conditions and what's in front of us, playing the game in real time. [It is] not get back in the shed and say 'we should have played this way, we should have done this'. "Playing what's in front of us and doing it for long periods. If you do that in Test cricket it holds you in pretty good stead."" "Contrast that to assistant coach Marcus Trescothick's explanation for England's approach on the third evening in Brisbane. "We are trying to play the way we want to play," said Trescothick. "You have to have a style of play you stick to, don't you?" And therein lies the problem. England have become slaves to their style, stubbornly believing a one-size-fits-all method will bring results in Test cricket." https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/articles/cy0pqjp0jyqo

( Borrowed from The Pub Landlord ) What is the problem with the migrants crossing the channel ? They are only following in the great British tradition of escaping from France in small boats.

They had all agreed to buy bungalows but pulled out following major complications, broken promises and delays, they say.

It owed its creditors more than £1m, including approximately £500,000 to Mr Elliott himself, according to documents on Companies House, " Elliott is also being sued by his own council for £38000 in unpaid C-Tax and Busieness Rates.

The 'Corridor of Uncertainty'..........the space between an England batsman's ears.

Son following father's lead in talking totally fabricated bollocks. I wonder why the Trump's hold such personal animosity towards Zelensky.

So said Isaac Newton.

McCullum say they "over-prepared" for the Gabba.

If it had been Bazunun in goal for Sutton last night in the FA Cup, some people would be blaming him for Shrewsbury's second goal. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/videos/c3e0z3e7nk8o

Leave a space on the bench vacant where Aribo might otherwise be and it would be a better option than Joe.

Because that is what he is. People respond to him, like Infantino, on the basis of what they can gain from the relationship, and pandering to a bully gives reflected glory. They don't care what other people might think of him, or their interaction with him. They just dismiss the mockery as ignorance and jealousy. Whatever you might think about Trump, for better or worse he is the most powerful man in the World, or at least the mouthpiece and public face for those who believe they are deservedly the most powerful men in the World. It is all about mutual ego grooming.

Manning needs to realise that a wing back occasionally needs to be a full back. The easiest way to attack Saints is to go wide on our left, level with the front of the penalty area, there is always space where Manning is supposed to be.

The US National Parks Service is removing free entry on 2 national holidays, MLK day and the day that celebrates the end of slavery, but they are adding free entry on "Flag Day", which purely by coincidence is the birthday of a certain Donald J Trump.

People getting trolled on SM as posts claim that newly elected Mayor Mamdani in New York is going to mandate the use of arabic numerals in city schools.

Ben Stokes contemplates another England defeat

The UK did more than it's fair share of colonisation itself between 1600 and 1947.

England currently 123 for 5. 🙂

Umpire gives Brook out caught behind when he clearly missed it by inches, Brook reviews successfully. Very next ball Umpire gives him not out to a ball he has clearly hit, Australia successfully review. 2 very poor decisions.

Too many stupid, loose, shots to balls that can safely be left. Other than Root, there doesn't seem to be a single player in the England team capable of batting successive maiden overs if the situation requires it. Bazball has frazzled their brains.
