Where the fuck do these kids keep coming from?
Klopp is the Pied Piper. Half expect Madeline McCann to turn up for the ladies side the rate we keep turning the youngsters out for the starting XI

Someone who understands this stuff, jump in and explain it to me.
This is what happens when foreign powers invest in your politicians. I think that about sums it up

It's quite something when the head of the biggest nonce ring in the country, thinks that meeting someone who once shared a stage with Corbyn is a bad idea. The world is upside down.

It's my local, it's full of miserable old men like me and a load of students on busier nights. It's about the only pub in the city centre without a rainbow flag up.
Like I say, I have no radar for it anyway.
You need a Gaydar. That'll help.

Badenoch is in a bit of schtick this morning. The PO ex-Chair has produced memories written at the time backing up his claims from the weekend. Oh dear.

Fucking hell. Three girls are injured by a man causing them to forfeit the game, and you're more concerned with the terminology used. Talk about missing the point.
Personally I'm not comfortable with girls and women being hurt because males are able to con their way into their sports, but I appreciate that's not a concern for misogynists.
But you're comfortable negging posts about women and children being blown up?
Fuck knows how you square that circle.

What the actual fuck is this nonsense?
I'm sure there are way more pressing needs for the respective departments of Government to deal with and it could be dealt with through the normal channels, you know the local police. Scandalous that this isolated incident is being raised to these levels.

It was the Tory membership that foisted Johnson on us first time round and then Truss for good measure, they're twats to a man.
You'd never ask them to step away from the railings if they wanted to jump off a bridge

Haha, Haaland has spat his dummy there.

Jota looks like studs on the thigh/knee. Hopefully nothing more than that, and no ligament issue

It would be preferable if he was suspended from a bridge by his intestines. Will just have to accept this for now

Haha, it didn't take long for Gnasher to dust himself down and turn into TLWs Rees-Mogg and tell us how shit winning the by-election actually was. As sure as night follows day.
I mean, Starmer might not have enthused the Tories enough to vote for him but they haven't voted for the Tories either and there's little time to actually persuade them to vote Tory in the GE too.

Haha, that's like the Milni/greeting thing we do at Indian weddings, where both families chuck in kids who clearly don't want to do the meet and greet in front of loads of people and the photographers.

OK, so the Pakistanis would rather the partition didn't happen and they still lived in India?
We're more than several generations on, Pakistanis and Indians are now a very different people. You'd have to go back to pre-1857 to ask that question, it's not even relevant now. More relevant would be looking at the role of the British Raj in the situation we have now.

I know - I don't think it is possible to extricate Britain's involvement from that one event either. Bengal was the blueprint used for "partitioning." imo.
@skend04 may have some insight on the Muslim angle.

Ah sorry chaps missed this. It all likely goes back to the mutiny of 1857 which resulted in the British government taking over from the East India Company and then the imposition of divide and rule based mainly on religion in order to maintain control over India. I mean it's what the Tories are still doing here, dividing people so they maintain power in Westminster.
Curzon splitting Bengal along religious divides likely was the blueprint for what we have today. It's just a pity Radcliffe and Mountbatten decided to chuck a line through the Punjab because it's still a sore point for a lot of Sikhs.
Isn't it amazing how the British Empire still affects the globe culturally and politically to this day and yet no government dares give us a warts and all history lesson about it.

They'll probably distract the wider community by bombing Somalia again or something.

Mr and Mrs Smith. Good, I enjoyed it but it won't be to everyone's taste. The assassinating takes a back seat to the dramedy and the relationship story

Racist scum cunts. Democracy? Hahahaha
Of course it's a democracy. It's just that the Israeli public has continuously voted for politicians who openly say what they want to do to the Palestinians.

I don't know if it's just me but since his return from injury and that 30-odd match run without scoring, he seems to have added more to his game. He's a lot more involved and even drops deep when the need arises. He's quietly become one of our most important players, definitely the most important forward.

According to our resident EU expert, the farmers' rallies across the EU were the fault of the EU. So why are we starting to see farmers protests in the UK when we aren't in the EU?

Kemi Badenoch complaining about death threats since the release of Nadine's book is really saddening. Until you realise she was front and centre when demonising human rights lawyers, who asked her to stop when they were being sent death threats. She didn't stop

Credible but not verifiable?
I mean, that's not surprising. I'm just waiting for the "credible" to be scrubbed off the next description about the accusations against UNRWA workers that were sacked and we'll then be back to normality with the Israeli authorities.
