The judge who sentenced the protesters to prison also let a convicted police office free from prison for a charge of rape, on appeal. Not because he found him not guilty, but in order “to bring this whole sorry mess to an end.” What a great guy eh? Sexually assault a woman and it is a “sorry mess.” Try and do something about the future of the planet and you get banged up for 5 years. If you think that’s ok, do you think future generations will think of you as a great guy, or just a selfish, myopic twat?

I don’t know, but they managed to apply sanctions to Russia. This is the first time that the court has ruled that the occupation is illegal. It is a big step forward.

Are you going to go through all of them?

Exactly. Which is why the UN should stop faffing around and take action.

You can get 4 years for rape.

According to the fact checkers, Trump told 22 lies in his Republican nomination acceptance speech. So much for being a changed man. Here are some of them. https://amp.theguardian.com/us-news/article/2024/jul/18/trump-rnc-fact-check God saved him so that he could carry on talking shit?

The new minister for prisons tells us that a third of inmates shouldn’t be there and now a judge locks up peaceful protesters for 5 years at precisely the time we are looking to let offenders out early because our prisons are at bursting point. 5 years for peaceful protest? Insane.

Not sure that is the case here, but it is certainly a huge wake up call and gives a taste of the effects of a full blown cyber attack on the country.

All social media platforms have ignore/blocking functions. Should they all be removed then as the users should just ignore content they don’t want?

It was said recently that it would end for Biden when Obama and Clinton told him it was time to go. He himself said he would stand down on medical advice which gives him the option to bow out without losing face. Please do Joe.

How bad were the other right backs?

Perhaps they do, although it is an expensive way of going about trading up. Business is business. If you hire good people there is every chance that they will move on to a bigger and better job somewhere else. A pain in the arse it might be, it is also basic Darwinism in action. The club used to make a point of selling itself as a stepping stone for players. If we manage to get some high quality people for a couple of years, surely that is better than putting up with some very average people for longer?

Although nowadays it seems that you need to be better with the ball at your feet than stopping shots as a gk.

Unless your wife married you as a stepping stone? Seriously, it is a job. If a bigger employer offering more money comes knocking, how many people would say no?

The cult of Donald

It’s a bit sad when your staff are headhunted by bigger and better employers that your first thought is there must be something wrong with the club. What should we do, employ crap people that no one else would want? Mind you, we had done that with a few players.

Boris who? https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/humiliating-photo-shows-boris-johnson-33254064.amp

We just need his doctor to agree.

Your best yet! 😂

Sadly we seem to unearth more Carrillos than Pahars.

He was our best left back as well as right back.

Of course he does. https://amp.theguardian.com/world/article/2024/jul/17/netanyahu-rejects-calls-for-immediate-inquiry-into-7-october-security-failures
