Full time: Leeds 4-1 Palace. Superb result and an outstanding performance from the team. Calvert-Lewin keeps poaching and Ampadu ran the game (from the centre and the touchlines). Eight points from unbeaten four-game run. Six points clear of 18th. Merry Christmas. #lufc

Delighted with that. We’re very difficult to play against and the goals are flying in. DCL, Rodon and Aaronson outstanding but Ampadu MOTM - his long throws are such a weapon, got his goal and bossed Wharton in midfield - absolute heartbeat of this side 👊#lufc

Jeffrey Epstein & David Walliams leading all the bulletins but Kemi Badenoch knows that only men from ‘different cultures’ pose a threat to women.

This is Johnson talking about rejoining Erasmus. A programme he promised not to leave and then did so anyway. Slamming the door on opportunities for our young people. Now he talks of gunning down those who attempt to fix his ruinous mess. The man is an irredeemable wanker.

It’s exactly this kind of dismal, prejudiced bollox from the Daily Mail that’s got us into the ruinous Brexit mess we’re in. What a moronic response to us rejoining Erasmus and all the benefits that brings. If they’re really worried about cost, they should push to cancel Brexit altogether.

When oh when are the British people going to receive an apology from Nigel Farage and the other UKIP liars!

Happily take a point from that but also feel it’s 2 dropped as we were the better side for most of that game and had the better chances. DCL and Amps outstanding 👊 #lufc

New analysis from Peter Kellner suggests the UK now has a clear pro-Rejoin majority – driven by generational change and millions of Leave voters switching sides. @eastangliabylines.co.uk @stephenmcnair.bsky.social

This should be a wake up call to Keir Starmer. Trump is not a reliable ally. Trump wants to weaken Europe and carve up Ukraine while cosying up to Putin. Britain and our allies in Europe must stand together against his threats and bullying.

Interesting to compare YouGov’s October poll with the actual result in the Caerffili by-election. 47% consider RefUK to be “generally racist” 47% = Plaid Cymru vote in Caerffili. 36% believe them to be not racist 36% is their vote in Caerffili. Lessons for May? yougov.co.uk/politics/art...

More than being regularly disgusted and horrified by what comes out of Trump’s mouth - the more serious issue is his mental stability. There is clearly something very wrong.

Once more for the haters...

Today's customs union vote is entirely symbolic, it's true. But what does it symbolise that no one is now arguing *for* Brexit? thecritic.co.uk/regr...

Bellers on Marsch. If we get to the WC we would be in Canada’s group and there was a bit of a fallout after they beat our youth team in a recent friendly “I’ve got nothing against that guy, by the way, I think he’s got something against the world.” 😅 #lufc

Goodness me, how I still have a functioning cardio-vascular system is beyond my understanding. But I say again can you imagine being anything but Leeds? #lufc

Think I popped a testicle #LUFC

👊 Proper Leeds. Proper Football. #lufc

NEW: Net migration falls sharply to 204,000 in the year to June. That’s a fall from 649,000 in the year to June 2024. It is a drop of nearly 80% from its 2023 peak.

OBR says lower net migration will hurt overall productivity

Rachel Reeves says there’s a “hole” in the public finances. A new decade-long Brexit study explains it: a 6–8% hit to GDP – that's £180bn-£240bn a year – means less tax, less investment and less money for everything else. Brexit made Britain poorer. Much poorer. @eastangliabylines.co.uk

Farage thinks that Britain rules the waves. 😂 Idiot.

Joe Rodon registered more passes than any other player in Europe during World Cup qualification, completing 754 and only misplacing 25. This included an impressive 147 out of 148 against Liechtenstein, the most passes by a Cymru player in a single game since 2008 👏🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

How is Josh Sheehan a League 1 player. Absolutely outstanding tonight #Cymru 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

So who had #Cymru putting 7 past a previously unbeaten side who had previously only conceded 3 all campaign. Fantastic, statement performance. Harry Wilson unplayable #lufc get that check book out.

The UK now has a long, shameful record of installing Home Secretaries with immigrant heritage and unreconstructed personalities. They have not processed the racism they experienced as children and so unconsciously seek validation by imposing draconian laws on others with shared familial origination.

BREAKING: Jeffrey Epstein and Donald Trump spent Thanksgiving together in 2017 — while Trump was in office.

Lib Dem Leader @eddavey.libdems.org.uk: "A great British institution is under attack from a foreign government. President Trump is trying to destroy our BBC... Trump has undermined press freedom in America. Now he's trying to do the same here, disgracefully egged on by the leader of Reform."

Robbie Gibb was appointed to the BBC Board by Boris Johnson, was an editorial advisor for GB News, and worked as Theresa May's Director of Comms. He is not impartial or neutral. The government should remove him from the Board immediately to protect the BBC's independence.

⬇️ Brexit has led to 1.8 million fewer jobs in the UK. 🇪🇺 Want better jobs? Encourage investment from business and knock down our disastrous trade barriers with our largest and closest market. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cdxrp7znkdlo

I’ve written to Keir Starmer, Kemi Badenoch and Nigel Farage urging them to condemn Donald Trump’s attack on the BBC. The BBC belongs to Britain, not Trump. We must defend it together.

Depressing. Not good enough away from home again today. We have limitations in our squad for sure but the way we set up and the lack of ambition to take the game to Forest in the 2nd half - the particularly by not bringing on DJ earlier is, unfortunately, on Farke. #lufc

If Mamdani is as Trump claims a ‘communist’ by promising free bus travel, free childcare and rent controls - all paid for by a 2% tax on the wealthiest in society, then maybe we need more ‘communists’.

Honestly TELL THE STORY. Won’t someone just tell the fucking story of how Brexit created this economic hardship, how a Muslim immigrant just saved the lives of those commuters on that train, won’t someone in politics or even media just connect the fucking dots and TELL THE STORY. IT’S RIGHT THERE

Being on X enables Musk and Musk enables the far right. There is no longer any excuse to be there and people need to leave.

The first thing Yaxley-Lennon did on leaving court was to thank Elon Musk for funding his legal costs. That's Elon Musk who has repeatedly called for civil war in the UK. As of typing this - all of the major politicians and platforms maintain a presence on X and it is time for them all to leave.

Shockingly poor. We can’t play like that away from home and expect to stay up. Something needs to change - 3 at the back with wing backs and 2 holding mids 🤷‍♂️#lufc

That performance from Kieffer Moore last night was as good as you are likely to see from a centre-forward. Hat-trick of superb taken goals aside, work-rate, hold-up play and passing when dropping deep - was immense - the fact that it was against Lampard’s Coventry made it even better 😃👊🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Farage: epic grifter

Joe Rodon has scored more headed goals than any other Premier League centre-back in 2025/26 (2). 💪 #LUFC

Big 3 points. Pleased for Brendy thought he was excellent tonight but Rodon motm. Bijol looks solid and Justin looks very decent. Really missed Gabi and Okafor 2nd half - didn’t like us standing off so much but without Willy didn’t have the options on the bench. #lufc

What's Caerphilly and Clacton got in common? Neither's likely to see Nigel Farage today.

VICTORY FOR THE PEOPLE OF WALES! 💥 Reform threw the kitchen sink at Caerphilly, and still got totally battered. Proof we can smash these far right grifters across Wales come the Senedd elections. Get ready...NO PASARÁN! 🏴 #StarmerOut #NoToReform #FarageIsAWanker

This is a historic result for Caerffili, it’s a historic result for Plaid Cymru, it’s a historic result for Wales’ political story. Caerphilly has proven that Plaid Cymru has the momentum and can replace Labour as Wales’ leading party of government in May next year.

Great result in Caerphilly. From now until the next GE, British politics isn't about 'the Labour vote' or 'the Green vote' or whatever. It's about the anti-Reform, anti-Tory vote. It's about keeping those fuckers out, by any means necessary.
