There is enough evidence of enablement of hate crimes to warrant a full Ofcom investigation into how it is using financial incentives to promote hate, harassment and real-world violence. The first responsibility of the State is to protect its people, and in 2025 that includes online.

Baller. Such a shame we could only have him for that one season. Wish we could have had him back when he went on loan to Fulham. Not sure if I loved him or Gallagher more.

Sierra Leone imported enough solar panels in one year to make up 65% of their entire nation's generating capacity. If you're not preparing for massive drops in fossil fuel demand, you're not paying attention.

Reform UK, which has a grand total of four MPs, was just given an uninterrupted platform for an hour and a half on the BBC and Sky News channels, in order to talk about its plans for mass deportations When was the last time the Greens (with four MPs) or the Lib Dems (with 72) were given the same?

Itās a pretty common newsroom practice to say that protests of a few hundred (or even a few thousand) people arenāt headline news because they happen all the time. And itās largely true. What I canāt explain is why even Ofcom regulated TV is determined to make *these* protests news.

It is very nearly the tenth anniversary of that brief moment when, for 2 or 3 days, British newspapers remembered refugees are desperate human beings who need our help, rather than scum that it's okay to threaten with violence.

If Josh Harris has finally been convinced Palace are worth more involvement on his side and he is making this move so he can more freely put in the funds to progress us on and off the pitch then bring it on. That stadium he is planning in Washington is š + you know his wealth exists.

I think the most absurd thing about the Palace demotion is that being so pedantic and hardline on this case doesn't actually touch the multiple problems that multi-club ownership actually throws up. As someone in Uefa put to me, it's being strong on the negligible aspects.

This is true and also, increasingly, I am less and less understanding of a public that indulges these lies - because what is meant by illegal in too many minds is "inhuman". And that belief is encouraged by the media, yes, but at some point citizens have to take responsibility for it too.

Three billionaire owners but the Guessand move is apparently contingent on Eze leaving. This is despite us winning the FA Cup and heading into our first ever European season, and the stink that comes with the fumbling of our Europa League place. Plus Ƨa change.

This might be tinfoil hat but the speed run Labour did from Corbyn to this Reform lite doesn't happen by accident or even by people thinking it's good politics. It's a concerted effort to make Labour politically impotent and therefore destroy any chance of a meaningful left platform.
