Time to get this kid into the England side for the summer…

100% they could have played a 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th day without getting a result!

Is Liam Gallagher running his social media?

Difficult to see Arsenal winning One Nil from here… which appears to have been their only plan…

I assume the ‘they’re trying to dominate the public space’ brigade will now turn their collective attention to folk putting up thousands of flags on lamp posts willy nilly without permission…

Biggest Spanish debacle for a Tudor since Catherine of Aragon…

There’s a danger this totally devalues the FIFA Peace Price!

I’m 99% sure that crashing the economy and the health and social care sector isn’t going to be hugely helpful in taking the fight to reform…

Drop in overseas workers is ‘car crash’ for UK hospitals and care homes, say experts Care roles hit particularly hard by UK’s lurch to the right on migration, according to analysis of Home Office data

The UKs immigration policy/politics at the moment aren’t just morally repugnant, they’re an active act of self harm… imagine choosing to reduce the number of nurses entering the country from 26,000 to less than 2,000 at a time when we desperately need more nurses!

Is it finally time to implement Dearing…

Tonight I drank 6 pints of alcohol free Guinness (as part of my commitment to both dry January and the pub)…

And now I’m as full as an egg!

Not another one!

Not another one!

Basic decency is that if you’re going to do this sort of thing you should at least lie about it!

Constantly saying the quiet bit out loud is just rude!

So… Trump says that America is going to run Venezuela… but no boots on the ground…

Can anybody explain how that’s possible?

I’m sure the line ‘we support Stefon’ will age brilliantly…

Never in doubt…

Fingers crossed the Lancastrian’s don’t cross the Pennines to attack!
