  1. Were hardly a great ally anyway
  2. According to the article I read, multiple women complained about Henderson's conduct. Perhaps that started in 2023, perhaps nurses who started later were the ones who had issues, or maybe it really was "politically motivated", though that seems unlikely to me. Your wider point seems to be that stuff like this shouldn't matter to people and us a distraction from real issues, which seems very unrealistic to me.
  3. Stuff like men being able to use female changing rooms is probably a bigger deal for a lot of people than small fluctuations in GDP or employment rates because it is such a fundamental change to what people are used to. Economic problems you kind of come to expect and aren't as big a deal to a lot of people as some think.
  4. Great pub. I think Sheffield is the only city in Britain bar maybe Edinburgh where I've never met anyone that dislikes the place.
  5. I feel it's almost inevitable that at some point in the near future Reform are going to complain that we don't get European migrants any more.
  6. Florence is great, you won't regret it. Yes there are tourists but for good reason, the art and architecture is world class. Love it very early in the morning in a locals cafe in some back street with a brioche and espresso.
  7. She's signing for Leicester, new number 9
  8. Yes one of them was Jessica Tandy - very spooky!
  9. The TV never turned itself on again but the hall light would flick on and off without anyone moving, which I told myself was due to a faulty sensor. An interesting update on this though... We left the flat about 3 months ago. We're sitting having a coffee this afternoon and my girlfriend gets a text from her old landlord apologising that he was about to ask such a strange question. Basically the new tenant is refusing to stay in the flat claiming that she wakes up at midnight - 2am (roughly the time our spooky happenings took place) feeling heavy, unable to sleep and with a sense that she's being watched. He asked us if we'd ever experienced anything similar. My girlfriend then takes the opportunity to tell me that when she moved in in 2019 she found a small wooden cross in the wardrobe that she didn't touch (she's very Orthodox and superstitious) and that a couple of months later a group of old people called at the house asking after the old lady that lived there before, whom we'd never met and had no idea of the whereabouts. We had a great time there and never experienced any bad vibes apart from the weird occurrences with the electrics, so maybe the ghost liked us and not the new tenant?
  10. It was in reply to "the far left love Islam" which is obviously false in the context of Iran and the Middle East which is what was being discussed. Not sure there are words in the English language to adequately describe how irrelevant Zara Sultana is in this context.
  11. The Iranian regime has also mass murdered socialists and communists. Not sure how the 'far left and radical Islam are in bed together' trope has really come about unless it's again just people over generalizing based on a few cranks they're exposed to by mass media.
  12. You're telling me it wasn't Jeremy Corbyn?
  13. If we're talking Iran, the Middle East and Central Asia then more right wing governments, the US in particular, tacitly and sometimes openly supported Islamist elements because they were anti Soviet, who were ideologically atheist of course. Afghanistan is a good example of a country that was much better in the hands of the "far left" in your words.
  14. I loved Whitlow. Proper hard bastard.
  15. an epic monument to shit defending
  16. Rogers! ****ing awful. Rogers, McGivern, Sheehan, Mattock, Chilwell, Thomas, Bertrand. We've had some left backs not even their mothers would cheer for.
  17. Yeah I had blocked him from my memory. Like the Game, but you lose it every time you remember Conor Coady exists.
  18. 13 year old me was bought a replica shirt in early 98/99 and I chose to get Sinclair on the back because he was great when he came and I was a bit weird and different. Then about 10 months later when the own goals began I became a figure of ridicule on the playing fields of West Norfolk. So in that sense I do hate him.
  19. Loved Sinclair
  20. Not going to put Faes because I genuinely feel a bit bad for his sister (is it his sister I usually read half her posts and give up?)
  21. I love a cathartic hate post like this. Ward Makin Vesty St Ledger Literally any left back we've had bar like 3 Sylla Wise Soumare Soumare again Fryatt (didn't hate him but he was overrated and brummie) Ayew
  22. Great servant to the club but I doubt KPFC will build the statue of him he deserves
  23. LMAO https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2026/jan/13/new-proposed-ukip-logo-compared-to-iron-cross-used-by-nazi-regime
  24. Haven't seen it mentioned anywhere in any of the media I consume (Al Jazeera Latin America and the Lynn News obituaries)
