Agree with this. Not sure why we would play him at city instead of the previous week.

Ramsdale Sugawara/kwp Bednarek THB Stephens Manning Downes Aribo Dibling Fernandes Archer Is something like that most likely?

No it isn't.

The argument seems to be that we need to pay reparations because the slave trade was not done on such an industrial scale before and that that's our fault. Completely insane of course.

Looks like this man is for turning. If accurate, not sure it's the best way to govern the country but in fairness I'd rather they junked stupid ideas whatever the reason for doing so.

That is true but it is also the case that many experienced SEND applicants know what to write on applications to get it through. Effectively they are competing with each other for the pot of money and it incentivises exagerrations on the application to get further ahead in the queue. It is true that more support is needed though.

I expect this would have been done whoever was in power but you can't really argue with that at all. Glad it's happening.

There's a Conservative thread to discuss that just down the page.

Oh dear oh dear. Let's hope the markets are wrong, particularly because my mortgage is with Halifax...

Or both can be shit and Labour can make a crap situation left by the Conservatives even worse. That would involve apportioning some blame to Labour though.

Lol.

We did better than I thought we would against Arsenal. I'm going to go with a 3-1 loss.

Not even worth discussing really. It isn't going to happen (although as usual the big brained genius David Lammy said something years ago not considering that it would come back to bite him if he ever fluked his way into power.) and it's a waste of time getting angry about a fantasy.

100% agree.

Anyone surprised by this?

Bloody hell. What a rancid bunch of dweebs.

I quite like Andy Burnham but not bloody Alistair Campbell. Terrible bloke.

What?

I don't think that. It's still a terrible look.

Having hardened criminals standing outside prisons saying big up Kier is a PR disaster however you look at it.

Yes but Truss wasn't prime minister at the time whereas Labour are currently the party in power. Making an enemy of Trump is a really stupid thing to do, particularly because he clearly holds grudges and would probably do something petty to disadvantage us. Agree with your point in general though. Obama was rightly criticised for his back of the queue comment during the brexit debate because it wasn't his place to get involved.

Agreed. It's why it was monumentally stupid for Lammy to say what he did about Trump last time round. Hopefully he apologises if Trump does manage to get in.

Not sure that's hypocrisy. Making a speech at a conference isn't really the same as actively campaigning in a swing state for a political candidate of a foreign nation.

Can we not throw around silly words like fascist? It demeans you when ordinarily you're relatively even handed.

He also repeatedly referred to members of this forum as rape apologists when they questioned the conviction of Evans and continues to challenge it even after he has been acquitted and those same posters were proven correct in a court of law. So he likes to question rulings in court unless they align with how he views the world. Even with this case, he's dispariging of the poor victim who shot someone in fear of his life and whilst doing his job attempting to apprehended a dangerous and violent gang member. Like you say he also likes to play down the crime of distributing child rape material. What an appaling human being.
