Again in Blyth, lower turnout, increased Labour vote, Reform taking votes from Tories not Labour.

Labour increased their votes and vote share in Sunderland with a lower turnout/overall number of voters. Reform have clearly taken votes from the Tories there and not Labour.

Vote Green, Lib Dem, an independent but not these charlatans.

Oh I'm not saying you had, I just think anyone who use that excuse for voting them is crazy.

Shite scheduling by Wimbledon. British number 1 playing British number 2, and they schedule Murrays doubles match now.

Still to switch to a limited company with no leader election mechanism that could just slot anyone into the role, currently led by the man most responsible for the most horrific piece of self harm a country has ever inflicted on itself. I mean by all means be disenfranchised with the main two parties but it's still no excuse to vote reform

Hmm see it's one of those isn't it, like when UKIP got about 4m votes, more than the LibDems and got zero seats whilst the LibDems got 20 odd. I don't see Reform having enough across the country to take many seats and in all honesty I think it's probably just making Labour more likely to win a few marginals. Because the are taking votes of both main parties but it won't be enough to translate to actual seats. Just the way our voting system works.

You got the tweet or the journalists name?

Ken Clarke too. The demise of the tory party started when Johnson removed all these very talented politicians because of Brexit. I don't agree with them on most things, but I respect them all for the way they conduct themselves.

Can't see Draper beating Zverev (potentially) after two 5 setters. Norrie is a machine so his fitness doesn't worry me, but as you say he's inconsistent. But so is Zverev, so could be long match strewn with errors.

When I watch Raducanu I often feel like she doesn't really need much coaching in term of game plans etc. I think she's naturally gifted and has a great ability to quickly work out her opponents game. She's had her injury issues and prior to that I think she might have had a little too much influence. She just needs to stay fit and play.

I knew what he meant as he had Henman with him, but made me laugh and someone will be calling him out on twitter

Andrew Castle just said during Draper v Norrie that the last time the British number one and two played each other in Slam was Henman v Rusedski. Erm it was the match before this one Andrew

Water isn't wet is what I actually said

https://uk.isidewith.com/ Always a good site to have look at even if you have already decided who you'll vote for.

Starmer is polling at over 60% and Streeting at nearly 60% in most polls. Where you read this?

Gakpo keeps trying that shot to the near post, you'd think the keeper would be more alert to it.

For the men it's Hewitt I'm 2003, lost to Karlovic. For the women it's Graf losing to Lori McNeil in 1994! There have been a lot of second and third round exits for defending champions on the Ladies singles over the years though, too many to list and a handful of retired champions not defending their title.

If that was what knocked them out then I'd say go ahead and cry his little heart out. But there's 15 minutes left, it's levels and he's captain. Time to rally the team and go again, not start blubbering.

Was tempted to ask him directly, but didn't want to derail the thread. But yeah figures doesn't it voting Reform/Tories. Ain't no love like Christian love. I always thought the values encompassed caring for the poor and needy, something neither party has any interest in doing. To get the thread back on track, I'll be voting Labour. I'm not totally happy with them, but they stand the best chance of outing the Tories here.

I don't get the reasoning behind allowing that Spain goal. They said it was different because Morata got out the way quickly enough, and they said unlike the Dutch goal. Dumfries was next to the keeper when the ball was struck, Morata was right in front of the keeper when the ball was struck.
