I do wonder if the initial Harris surge was ‘thank god Biden’s stepping aside’. America is just a bizarre place though politically and makes little sense to this clueless Brit.

India scored 297 in a t20 today 😬

Doesn’t Trump need all of the swing states to win?

I just want to be able to afford a house and a car, not to spaff it on pointless sh1t. We can’t settle down til a much later age now, and yes I blame Thatcher and Reagan for this.

Jenrick and that wing of the Tories have no tangible plan or ambition to make life better for the majority. It is about making the 0.1% richer, asset stripping from the 99.9% and making really loud noises about the EU, immigration, as a means of distraction. If they really wanted to solve the immigration crisis they’d take long term steps like raising the minimum wage and making conditions more suited so that people that already live here can reproduce rather than constantly having to worry about next months rent payments and bills.

Interesting one for Biden & Starmer & co right now. Either they believe in the provision and utility of the United Nations or they dont and see the United Nations as aiding and abetting terrorism.

100% worth it if it stops Jonny Foreigner filling in the workforce for roles where underpaid British people don’t want the jobs.

I mean technically only one of us has been European champions. No shame in losing to a country with football heritage like Theo Zagorakis and Nikos Dabizas.

We played well in 1 out of 7 games at the euros (Netherlands semi). We’re a poor team regardless of who the manager is.

Meh Hungary looked high quality against us in the last nations league but have not really surmounted to anything since. Can’t take much from it.

Greece will be disappointed not to win this 3/4-0

What are the genuine benefits that Jenrick thinks leaving the ECHR will bring to the country? It just seems like an electoral/cultural ploy to distract from actual important stuff.

Newcastle is the obvious answer, cheap pints, stadium in the city centre, close to the coast. Once Everton move into their new ground, that’ll go up a notch or two as that’s walking distance from the city centre

Obviously the batting is sensational but the pitch really is the flattest I can ever recall. It’s done nothing.

Also because it’s Pakistan, there’s always the hope of capitulation from them.

What’s she done wrong here?

I obviously want tories out of power for a long time but out of the three, Cleverley as Tory leader would’ve been absolutely the best thing for the party and country. What a bunch of nutters.

Should get to 600-700 from here by this time tomorrow. If we can put pressure on them with that score then it is Pakistan, so we still have a great chance of winning.

Just sensational

Again, I don’t think Cooper is the right man but surely the players have to take a bit more responsibility here. “None of us respect him as a manager” to me sounds like they’d made their mind up from the start and I don’t think he’ll ever win them over. Indeed if this is the case then he needs to go asap and we get in a manager that the senior players do respect, and they probably need to develop some humility as well. It seems that rot is still part of the club post Brendan.

Holy crap, what a catch 1 stupid shot = 1 wicket

They’ve got a handy score now though, if we can skittle them asap we’re still in it, if they get to 600 it’ll start to look ropey and the win is probably gone.

Surely a ceasefire in Gaza, would lead to a ceasefire everywhere? Is Sinwar in Gaza or Qatar?

The problem is that our players will get out playing silly shots. If we bat with discipline we can still go at 5+ an over without risking too much.

I’ll wait until we’ve batted until judging this deck. What is impressive however is we’re already 10 overs down in terms of over rate and that’s with spin doing a lot of work.
