Largely agree with that Think of the police manpower recently spent on arresting people spraying paint on military equipment and pensioners holding placards up under anti-terror legislation. Then extremist murderers like this are allowed to slip through the net. Sums up why (in part) I got out the force when I did.

Apparently someone who came to Britain as a small child and been here ever since.

Their player was hugging McCarhty, it was a clear foul

Given the goalscorer, quite literally. . .

FYI these are the guys who have been running 'security' at the Gaza aid distribution aid sites https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cm2zy4l8jgeo

They're protesting against the precedent it sets as much as anything. Part of the reason the majority of people being arrested are pensioners is because they've been around long enough to know how fragile democracy and free speech are.

Using anti-terrorism legislation to suppress dissent was something we were condemning Putin for not that long ago. The genocide is actually openly acknowledged in the UK parliament and it's portrayed differently to how it's reported in the press. One MP (Stephen Burgon) stood up and asked how it is morally justified to not to put the same sanctions on Israel that got put on Russia a few years ago, Lammy's response was pathetic to the point of amusing.

150 arrested so far today in London

LOL at this thread

Trump's certainly got the balls, however him and Putin have been close friends for decades

As someone who's never rated him, full credit to him for that. Honourable mention to Stephens getting back for that 1 on 1 as well. Played crap for the majority of the game and won, will take that.

It's more than that, it's a very concerning precedent.

It's all continuing to get out https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/cy8k8045nx9o I read recently that almost as many Palestinians had been shot dead in aid queues as Israelis died in the October massacre (nearly two years ago). That's before we get on to the mass starvation. Our role currently is largely around trying to avoid complicity, unfortunately we only seemed to realise too late that the genocidal regimes are on both sides and what we've got ourselves into.

A good summarisation https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cp863mln0pmo

According to Israel's ex PM, we're closer than you might think https://www.thenational.scot/news/25311007.israel-planning-concentration-camp-says-former-prime-minister/

Who is 'good' and who is 'evil' has sadly little to do with humanity, and everything to do with who we supply weapons to, money and power.

The Prodigy are still a lot of fun

He had his poor games but he was also a handful for other teams to defend against on occasions, and fought his way back in the team after being completely frozen out. His goalscoring record at other clubs speaks for itself, here he got Nathan Jones, Ruben Selles, Russell Martin and Ivan Juric not knowing what to do with a 6ft 7ins target man.

Shame to see him go, he'd have been a useful option in the Championship. Never worked out for him here and horrendously mismanaged, best of luck to him

Interestingly acknowledged as "deliberate murder by US merceneries" in a recent UK parliamentary debate

I think they're trolling

I liked how Israel accused Iran of violating the ceasefire and ordering fresh strikes this morning, and then halted it as soon as Trump told them in no uncertain terms to stop. He doesn't want any more US resources involved now Iran's nuclear capabilities have likely been set back years. (I remember reports that Iran are pursuing a nuclear bomb from the 1990s)

A good shout as he was a big upgrade on Kelvin Davis at that time. I remember he played in the Sheffield Utd game on the last day of the season, there was a header from a corner I still don't know how he kept out to this day
