M K Dons, Swansea, Southampton : there is a certain symmetry to the defensive records of RM teams.

It's to stop the players surreptitiously applying it to one side of the ball to aid in inducing reverse swing.

This is a very important point. The EHCR is an important foundation of the UK's Civil Rights legislation, not just a few bits of paper that clever lawyers use to keep migrants from being moved on.

"Forty minutes into Rangers' mortifying night at Ibrox, Djeidi Gassama won a corner at the Broomloan Stand end and his manager, Russell Martin, applauded on the sideline. The sound of one man clapping was deafening. Rangers trailed 3-0 at the time, there had been multiple outbreaks of booing and scores of people had already headed home. When Ibrox turns on its own like this, there's a temptation to put in the earplugs and don the crash helmet. It ain't pretty. It's as visceral as it gets; loud and vicious, words coming like blades, capable of cutting their target in half. A corner might have done it for the manager, but it wasn't doing it for the masses.".….…..... "Could Rangers afford to give up so many chances to Brugge, a club that has sold around £70m worth of talent this summer but an outfit that retains enough slick operators to punish slapstick defending? No, came the answer after three minutes when Nasser Djiga - back to life after playing dead in the build-up to Alloa's first goal in the League Cup last weekend - downed tools and let Romeo Vermant away from him to brilliantly lob Jack Butland."....... "No, came the answer again after seven minutes when Jorne Spileers, untroubled by a blue jersey in his midst, side-footed home from a corner. These were the kinds of moments that Rangers survived in previous games. Not now." "And no came the answer again after 20 minutes when Rangers failed with two attempts to clear their box, a hesitancy and incompetence that saw Brandon Michele rifle a third past Butland. At that point, the only prayers that could have been offered up on Rangers' behalf would have given thanks to the man above that this team was not going any further in this Champions League.

Fuck knows. Putin may not have got the regime change he wanted, but he has enough to spin a victory and justification for murdering tens of thousands of Ukrainians and of his own people.

Perhaps, but true.

So Putin's aggression is rewarded.

Not for Vlad at any rate, Donnie's been played. Looks like you backed the winner.

Item 3 of Article 257 of U.S. Law No. 115-44 Quote: "This is U.S. policy – to never recognize the illegal annexation of Crimea by the Russian Federation or the separation of any part of Ukrainian territory through the use of military force." This law was signed in 2017 by U.S. President Donald Trump.

Trump only cares about being the 'peace maker'. If Ukraine don't agree to what he proposes then he will walk away and say "at least I tried". Don't forget, he made the peace 'deal' with the Taliban in Afghanistan - look how that worked out. He also sponsored the January ceasefire between Israel and HAMAS. Perhaps he is hoping for 'third time lucky'?

I get the feeling that what has been implied in the media is "The Deal"; In return for agreeing to cease hostilities and freeze things on the current front lines, Russia gets to keep Crimea and gains that small part of Donetsk it does not currently occupy. Ukraine gets "security guarantees", ( which will hopefully prove worthwhile this time around ), but cannot join NATO. I don't think Putin will have agreed to give up anything he currently controls. Marco Rubio has said that "both sides must make concessions, if only one side does then that is surrender". I suspect that Russia's 'concession' is to agree to the security guarantees - Would it really indicate 'surrender' if Russia were to agree to withdraw from some of the occupied territories ?

So that's two of us who won't get through US immigration in the next 3 and a half years.

Not sure about fruiting early, but our apple and plum trees have been laden, and the raspberries, blackcurrants, and peas have hardly stopped cropping. It's also the first year the apricot tree has fruited. The Passion flowers have been flowering now for about 2 months, with no sign of stopping.

With all the above experiences taken into account, the memory passed down to me was simply thst when my Grandfather got home from the far east it wa August 1946, and all anybody had to say was "Where have you been ?".

Will Zelensky get the same red carpet welcome, greeted by Trump at the airport ? Or will Trump and Vance double-team him again, trying to humiliate him into accepting the unacceptable ?
