Dayot Upamecano?! Deffo a ‘set piece’ joke somewhere. 🔧😅 #FRAENG #FFSWorldCup

If you pile your furniture in the middle of your living room then set it on fire, you will have the warmest house in your street, for a few hours.

Deeply irresponsible. We're in a climate crisis. This is such a terrible start. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Some men don't need their testosterone checked to know that they've still got it. Real men cover Black Sabbath at age 95. l.smartnews.com/p-87l3U7Gp/6...

"Andy Mitchell, who covers Warwickshire County Council for the Local Democracy Reporting Service, was barred from a code of conduct hearing into [Reform's] George Finch, the authority’s leader, after a three-strong standards panel voted two-one in favour of holding it in secret."

Reform UK's Zia Yusuf is currently delivering a speech accusing his party's critics of using language that will put his colleagues' lives at risk. In other news, here's Zia Yusuf two months ago

Strewth. This is a pivotal moment caught on camera. 👀 #Thatcherism #Docklands youtu.be/8EdC5XyCqbI?...

All time #Ma classic: me getting her to recreate the cover of #LedZeppelin IV (six years ago). ♥️

As someone who lives in the area, that's absolutely fascinating viewing. I wonder what happened to the two blokes featured, they'll be 65 now. £350k for a docklands flat in 1987 was an astonishingly high figure.

The vandalism paved the way for the 100.

Putting all of the men’s T20 Blast fixtures on at 16:30/17:00 on the same week day (when people are working) seems like a bit of a weird thing to do. Why not put them on in the evening when people can watch? Are the ECB trying to sacrifice all short form domestic cricket at the alter of The Hundred?

Erling Haaland and the rest of the Norwegian men's team are paid the same as the women's team. In 2017, they took a voluntary pay cut to allow the women's pay to be increased. The move came from the players' union, not management.

No doubt the recyclon scientists on Sigma IX have technology to deal with ‘Farage’ @countbinface.bsky.social ? 😅 #Clacton #VoteBinface

Just heard from the Cricket Regulator that NFA will be taken relating to my complaint of #racism against a County CEO (no corroboration). I fear English #cricket will never make any meaningful change and will become ever more irrelevant to all but a tiny minority who identify with those in charge.

"When you’re accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression."

How can any #sport (or public institution) be deemed ‘too inclusive’? Sky Sports were right to offload #Gower. An over privileged and outdated individual that the game of #cricket can do without.

What Say You,Military Recruiters...?

England are in a World Cup final this afternoon, so I’m sure it’ll be the top story on BBC sport. Ok, maybe 2nd? 3rd? 4th, surely… 9th. #TheCricket

Oh myyyy! 👀😅

😅

Superb - if one-sided and pricey - evening at the Oval. #T20WorldCup #ENGvSA

Low total as it stands? Anyway. Whose yellow pigeon is this? #TheOval #T20WorldCup

Abolish the ECB. Nice open goal for @andyburnham.bsky.social if he wants to challenge #elitism in British #sport (and society). #stateschools #cricket

To mark the demise of Humphrey Smith, here’s the @daveyjones.bsky.social dig at the Sam Smiths chain and their somewhat eccentric / complete nutcase owner Humphrey the other year.

Unfortunately, politicians and sports broadcasters keep convincing gullible citizens that stadium deals are economic drivers for the region. We keep getting scammed. www.currentaffairs.org/news/taxpaye...

An effort to get here. But Salina is terrific. 🇮🇹

When reality surpasses fiction! Top: fictional forecast for August 2050, broadcast by French TV in 2014 to warn about the consequences of global warming. Bottom: Real French forecast for yesterday, June 22, 2026.

"UK businesses who trade in commodities sourced from rainforests such as soy, palm oil, cocoa and rubber will need to check that their supply chains are not contributing to illegal deforestation. These products are commonly found in everyday supermarket products" inc chocolate, shampoo and cosmetics

No county championship cricket now until August 20th….

Just seen the shopkeeper from Falling Down get beaten up in Babylon 5. 😂

On a hot sunny day…

Great post on Lalas’s tiresome act that includes this fantastic description of Zlatan: “Zlatan, a singular figure in the sport's history who as a side job does disdain the way a rhododendron does photosynthesis”

Data Centres require land, water and energy, I wonder where the UK government plan to put them? Scotland with only 8% of UK population has 33% of the UK land mass, produces 33% of the renewable energy, 20% of the electricity and oh it has 90% of UK fresh water WAKE UP 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Congratulations to the #Socceroos. Les Murray would be loving it! 💚💛 youtu.be/-Xs1lUK4jas?...

This isn't just Scotland's first win at the women's T20 World Cup. It's the first win by any associate member at any women's World Cup in any format since the ICC took over women's cricket in 2005.

Just need everyone to know that the Belgium men's soccer team has new jerseys based on the art of Rene Magritte and this is the official photo shoot

this is amazing

“Exploiting this tragedy to create grievance and division would be wrong in any circumstances but to do it when the family are expressly saying please don’t is unforgivable. It shows exactly who he is” Keir Starmer responds to Nigel Farage at #PMQs

A shambles, brought about by greed, that not only disenfranchised millions at the stroke of a pen, but also introduced another form of #elitism to English #cricket (as if it needed it). 🤦🏻‍♂️ www.telegraph.co.uk/cricket/2026...

But then, it’s Thatcher’s very principled beliefs in the glory of free markets that filled the country with spivs and shitehawks like Farage. And really, what was Thatcherism, if not holy jihad on the utter Woke nonsense of collective bargaining, state capacity and regulation.

what is progressive about labour? @darrenpjones.bsky.social? @lucympowell.bsky.social? @bphillipsonmp.bsky.social? what is progressive about your party? what is progressive about your policies? labour spent 18 months persecuting minorites, building a surveillance state, and murdering trans kids

Will this be me as I age? 😄

Pleased Notts County won.
