Wow - this guy must be really, REALLY bad with money if an extra £208 per month will “ruin” his retirement. Let’s take a look at his situation based on what he told the @Telegraph Because this does NOT add up! No, this is not a “poor pensioner” scrabbling around for pennies… 🧵1/9

The "don't have an extra kid if you can't afford it" brigade get awfully upset when you suggest they don't stay in their £2m house if they can't afford it, don't they?

No, I'd say it's racists and those pandering to them.

Can we call him an authoritarian and a fascist *now*, without being accused of over-reacting...?

the president of the united states wants to use the american military to kill american citizens on american soil. that's the whole story!

Oxford United Launch Innovative Shirt Trade-In Solution ahead of 25/26 Season#oufc

In light of Kidlington Parish Council (KPC)'s astonishing waste of public money on a pointless traffic survey, #OUFC fans are trying to raise £1,350 to give to a local cause. You can donate here. Big and small donations welcome: gofund.me/b6ad8c94

Does anything sap hope more completely than going to open the windows on a day like today, only to find they're already open?

Pretty sure @rorysmith.bsky.social has just 'borrowed' @georgeelek.bsky.social's 'reverse mullet' description to define Barcelona on Five Love. Hope George gets some royalties out of it...

Wait, is Gary Rowett running the London Marathon tomorrow? He's a proper glutton for punishment isn't he? Go well, gaffer #OUFC

It’s obvious that the Trump/Putin #Ukraine negotiations will just be a list of what Putin wants, presented as a diplomatic victory by Trump, right? Then he’ll act all surprised and get offended when most of the rest of the world laughs at it.

Pedro Pascal showed up to the Thunderbolts premier in the UK wearing a pro trans "Protect the Dolls" shirt.

My wife has a medical emergency and I could really do with your help by donating / sharing / both. If you follow me & have ever liked any of the stuff I post, this is the best possible way to show that. Thank you. www.gofundme.com/f/medical-co...

Hope Freddie’s playing dumb when he says he trusts Charlotte. Poor thing will be like a lamb to the slaughter tomorrow #traitorsUK

How many #Traitors have we had over 3 series of the #UKtraitors? Enough for a series made up entirely if former traitors?

#Traitors Hot take 1: Don’t tell us who #TheTraitors are until episode 3 at the earliest. Make us work for it.

So, let's try doing #duvetknowitschristmas here this evening? People are literally Driving Home For Christmas right now, which MIGHT JUST mean that they'll be sleeping somewhere unusual. 1/

Not sure if anyone is doing an #OUFC advent calendar type thing so thought I’d give it a go. 24 key moments from last season that got us back to the Championship, I may regret this by day 10 😂🧵

Have England got left and right-handed batting shirts?! #NZvENG

What did I say, guys? #NZvENG 🏏

Why’s that’s not a penalty on Gordon? Van Dijk just wipes him out off the ball.

Did you know: The Ed Sheeran song ‘Bad Habits’ was written to and about a Sainsbury’s Pigs Under Blankets sandwich?

Not a pretty point today, but if we’re going to stay up then some of them won’t be. Big boost for the vital games ahead though; Goodrham’s goal superb, Dale and El Mizouni added some drive, and Goodwin looked a handful too. Massive December incoming #OUFC

David Gower is just so good at this cricket comms stuff #engvnz

Robert Jenrick is speaking but I don't see any reason to inflict it on you. Watching him grapple with issues of moral importance is like watching a mop try to use Windows 95.

Someone share the #OUFC line-up, it’s killing me 😭

Strikes me that one of the main barriers to taxing the rich (as we should) is that ‘the rich’ tend to have incredibly effective lobbying operations that can very quickly turn ‘this is why they should carry more of the tax burden’ to ‘this is how it will probably kill your gran.’

Would take your hand off for a point from the next 2 games. But then I think we need 8-10 from Plymouth, QPR, Wednesday and Cardiff. I try not to be dramatic, but they feel like 6-pointers already, it’s so close at the bottom. Anything from Sheffield United, Milwall or Leeds would be a bonus.

quick Saturday diversion: I need these people to understand that two of the greatest onramps towards believing in community and respect for other people are sports and playing any sort of games with each other

The only silver lining I can think of at the moment is that I expected that to happen most weeks this season. Onwards. #OUFC

I went to Oxford United, a football club that has sadly been touched by suicide. I met manager Des Buckingham and midfielder Will Vaulks at the club’s first mental health workshop. They will change and save lives. inews.co.uk/sport/footba...

West Indies v England: fifth men’s T20 cricket international – live

My mum went to see an ABBA tribute last night. I won’t share the photo she just sent me, but I want you to imagine a version of ABBA that is just one woman and a lot of confidence.

As a final act of helpfulness for #OUFC fans new to BlueSky before I revert to trying to annoy everyone, here's a starter pack of people to follow. Please do share it with new people. I'll update it periodically and create new ones when we hit the limit of 150 people. go.bsky.app/P9tnib8

Ooh 20k followesr on BlueSky - that's pretty healthy but obviously not quite the million we had/have on the sad old shit hole that Twitter is these days. Do tell your friends that Fesshole is HERE, so that they can follow us / block us, dependent on their feelings.

Magnificent to see 20-year-old Dane Scarlett making experienced Championship centre backs look like they don’t if they’re coking or going.

Not to put too fine a point on it, but if the Taliban are applauding who you elected it is probably a good time to reflect on how badly you f**ked up with who you voted for. www.thelondoneconomic.com/news/taliban...

The single most helpful thing I’ve found since arriving here properly about three hours ago - thank you for this Steve.

Help! I’m new here and looking for: Oxford United England cricket Anti-Tory Anti-Trump People to follow. How do no find them?!
