  1. Sad news and just mid 50’s. Saw him playing at the Oval a few times in the nineties. Not a particularly stylish batsman, but so very effective and a mainstay of that England team.
  2. Perhaps they’ll be happier with David Lammy in charge, oh no hold on ……………
  3. I never had the opportunity unfortunately, trust your experience went better than this……….
  4. Thanks might give a go. I had a quick look at the cast and didn’t recognise anyone, don’t know if that’s good or bad!
  5. There were still people on board the plane including the crew. A complete non story.
  6. He was on there for a while, assume he thanking the cabin crew! 🤣
  7. Sad news, far too young. Seemed like a genuine football guy.
  8. Not up to the police. If he is 17 he is a minor and only the courts can decide that his name should be published.
  9. Yes actually I think they let him off quite lightly. At one point he said words to the effect that in Virginia after babies were born, they set them aside to determine if they should execute them!! It was outrageous that he was not called out on that one.
  10. Trump was rude and condescending to one particular journalist, because he didn’t like her direct questions. He as usual just deflected and told outright lies. He said he didn’t realise Harris was black, because she was Indian before! He just continues to alienate large swathes of the population with his verbal diarrhoea.
  11. Very sorry to see him go, 2 years ago he rather than Saka, was for me the more exciting prospect. I think Arteta has got this wrong.
  12. He has apparently been charged with sharing cat A images, so the most serious classification. If found guilty and providing there is no extraordinary mitigation, a prison sentence is the most likely outcome.
  13. https://reagan.blogs.archives.gov/2023/04/10/white-house-kids-series-harrison-ruffin-tyler-grandson-of-10th-president-john-tyler/ For those history buffs there is a man living in the US, whose grandfather was born 234 years ago in 1790. If that was not remarkable enough, his grandfather just happened to be the 10th US president and the only one to be buried under a confederate flag!
  14. Their board doesn’t have a clue, not surprising if Todd is still the one making those decisions!
  15. I wonder what the main attacker had done to prompt the police to talk to him at the drinks machine.
  16. She is not going to have clean hands, as far as being a prosecutor is concerned. Since the US justice system is fatally flawed and serious miscarriages of justice are commonplace, anyone working within that system for any length of time is going to be tainted in some way. However, she is running against Trump and who could more tainted than him right! She has the ammunition, just hope she has the ability to really go after him.
  17. Is he actually a real lawyer? He looks more like he’s running the local protection racket.
  18. I see those opinion polls are narrowing now. Republicans continuing to use their racist dog whistle of choice DEI, will just pee off many independents. I suspect that rhetoric will ramp up in the coming weeks, as they just can’t help themselves.
  19. Kleo, 2nd season back on Netflix.
  20. Not surprisingly, when particular police forces like the Met or West Mercia for example have received fairly recent damning independent reports of institutional misogyny and racism, it is going to negatively impact on the public’s perception of trust and fairness in policing in general. That’s human nature. The police in being more open and transparent and proactive in weeding out those unfit officers, need to somehow turn that perception around.
  21. Absolute respect to Graeme Souness for this. https://www.itv.com/news/granada/2024-07-23/football-legend-fights-back-tears-over-girl-living-with-rare-skin-condition
  22. So yet another unlawful shooting (in other words murder) by a trigger happy cop, who clearly shouldn’t have been anywhere near being employed by law enforcement. As a person of colour, I am extremely relieved that police do not routinely carry firearms over here.
