If the draw was in any other country for any other tournament FIFA would reprimand or demand a change from that country but here nothing… www.theguardian.com/football/202...

Will Santander Bikes ever allow a non UK resident to use the App? Every time I try to enter my non UK credit card I get an error, they ask for your country but then say incorrect postal code unable to find. I tried my UK card but it’s also registered abroad. I love using the bikes when her but..

Current road situation in London primarily caused by farmer protests but it’s a few people on one bridge that got jailed…

This is how our government has been corrupted: 1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office 2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor 3) Donors make huge profit 4) Repeat We must get big money out of politics. It is the root of our dysfunction.

So will the tractor drivers who have blocked up all London (but have made it fun on a bike😂) despite a Police ban be arrested and jailed like the Just Stop Oil. Personally I am happy they have a right to protest but you can’t let one group “disrupt the people of this city” and not others

Joys of European football- Newcastle fans were made to go to mandatory fanzone before game and the shipped to stadium 3 hours before KO - UEFA just accepts this treating of fans as cattle www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/footba...

Tyson is closing a Nebraska plant that employs 3,200 workers in order to “right-size” its business. The meatpacking giant paid its CEO $22.7M last year, 525x its median employee's pay. It also spent $196M in stock buybacks to reward shareholders. Textbook corporate greed.

Ok we have to smash them

Not watching the games as enjoying some London Boozers with proper beer and no TVs - are Chelsea good or Barca Shite?

Walking in London - literally the blond leading the blind…not great photo but both have white canes…

@arseblog.com @davidsquires.bsky.social we need a merchandise drop with this….

Sitting in a bar with live music is much better than watching teams I don’t want to win beat other teams I don’t want to win

Looks like it’s going to be another perfectly normal day from the American right-wing.

@mrjimcampbell.bsky.social surely start the @footballramble.bsky.social with a “Ezeeee, Ezeee, Eze,Eze,Eze..” chant 😂

I drew North London

What an amazing day for Arsenal and for Eberechi Eze. Incredible for him in any context, but with his history, his journey, it's just really, really special. Also a massive win, and a statement/fuck off win in this title race after the results yesterday Huge day, lots of fun to be had after this!

Anyone want to give some words of advice or real hope to someone in Australia over Christmas and New Year and going to the SCG for the 5th test. I have nothing

As I’m watching the Ashes and getting ready to come back for the NLD on Sunday - I miss the days of footballers that played cricket. I know not possible these days but who was the last to do it?

🤣

X has changed their policy and now you can see where the accounts are based. Here’s an “influencer from Texas”

Maybe he can root out the links to hedge fund asset strippers, white supremacist groups, generally all racists etc but he won’t have anyone left would he www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

It's always hard to pick a worst day politically, but today the president called for the death of members of the opposition party, and the administration decided that people were being too hard on the swastika

Trump basically just wanting to get rid of the Ukraine issue by issuing a “take it or leave it” ultimatum - it doesn’t matter to him that Ukraine has been violated by Russia, that Russia will get pretty much everything it wants from its aggression and will, in all likelihood, do it again..

Despicable open.substack.com/pub/steady/p... Great read from Dan Rather: "...The very existence of a free press is a threat to this president’s modus operandi, which is to govern by lying. Why would he want people around him who ask for facts and truthful answers?..." #BlueCrew #MisogynistInChief

That sound you hear is the stable door being bolted after the horse has well and truly bolted. Those that have done have gained significant advantage with no punishment and no one else allowed to do it… www.bbc.co.uk/sport/footba...

Word of the day is ‘quockerwodger’ (19th century): a puppet politician whose strings are pulled entirely by someone else.

There would have only have been one appropriate response to “Quiet piggy.” Mr. President, go fuck yourself…you miserable cocksucker. Then…let the chips fall where they may…with your held high.

I’m still thinking about “quiet, piggy.” No president should be able to speak to a member of the press that way and remain president. That moment encapsulates how vile, misogynistic, and horrible that man is.

A reminder that seven years ago almost to the day, the CIA determined that Mohammed Bin Salman ordered the killing of @washingtonpost.com journalist Jamal Khashoggi. I hired and worked with Jamal for a year. www.washingtonpost.com/world/nation...

Thank You Gianni for taking away the joy of qualifying for WCs, the possibility of trips of a lifetime for many by just wanting to work with the most obnoxious people on the planet, by wanting to fleece every true fan on the planet for your own ego. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

#GVerse #KingResist #Unite #FBaRmy An ICE Agent was BUSTED by Bloomington Police in "Operation Creep" trying to solicit sex from a minor. When arrested, he said "I'm ICE, boys." That #FuckICE Agent is toast.

Imagine a Scottish fan finally getting the chance to go to the WC Finals, getting a ticket and an ESTA and then interned on arrival at JFK airport for reposting a meme that casts some doubts on the greatness of the Orange Cockwomble…

Got to love KT😃

Did the Irish U21s party with their senior counterparts a bit too hard on Sunday? They are losing 4-0 to Andorra U21s

So why didn’t McTominey get the Ballon d’Or?

Did you note that Rupert Lowe has also entered the chat? I would be very worried if I had supporters like these.

Tommy Robinson, Sargon of Akkad, Rupert Lowe. Getting the whole spectrum of far-right nasties on your side is not a good look, Labour.
