Can't believe Man Utd could be 3rd by the end of the weekend

Generally it's a tiny proportion with those figures too.

Out of a country of 70m (?) people, so many are fretting about 30k people... Wake up!

Why do they have to be mutually exclusive? You can be proud of your nation but also be welcoming to others from people not originally from here . Who has said it's wrong for people to be proud of your nation? It's just a huge generalisation that you think anyone invited here dislikes you.

Did you even read the 6 words after the bit you quoted?

No

Ignore that, though NZ were already through!

Decent game considering both have qualified

Wicket first ball after drinks for both teams.

Wow.

Oh so now England love a good track that spins

No. That's not what I've said and you know it.

First legs 10/11 March.

I'd say, for Arsenal, that Bodo was probably the easiest, despite the Norwegian side's results.

Took a bit of time but Seifert is getting him now.

Fundamentally, it is. Radical and extremist Islam isn't. Much like any other radical and extremist far right group relying on religion and culture to see their point through.

You make it sound like that's only an Islam problem. When it quite obviously isn't just that. Not quite the 'gotcha' you think it is.

You make it sound like we've all had the same experience. I've come across loads of people of the demographic you've collectively all piled into one. But my experience is different. I've not come across a Muslim person who disagrees with the general lifestyle here. I don't see them complaining about people drinking, eating pork or bacon, not fasting during Ramadan, embracing Christmas and Easter and other holidays celebrated here.

Is it any different to Reform whipping up support on the other side, so to speak? Capitalising on disadvantaged people and making them think one culture is the problem when in fact the issues are far wider and deeper?

Mildly looking forward to attending this tomorrow...

Wild post. To reduce Islam (or Muslims?) to just Pakistan is wild enough. Green Party is led by a gay Jew, so anyone who does happen to be Muslim certainly can see past that and hope their lives are bettered by someone they believe in (a white female after all too). Maybe they're not the problem...

That's superb for the Greens, devastating for Reform and even more devastating for Labour. Good start to the day nonetheless.

Reckon James is on the bench.

What's Brook''s arse like cos you're constantly up it Before this world cup Sharma's strike rate was off the charts in T20Is. Yadav could give Brook a good run for his money too. Brook is a fantastic player, I don't disagree. But I think you've slightly overstating his ability somewhat
