The more I learn about this, the more i am disappointed in the club. I have little doubt that there would have been a different Farage led shitstorm if they’d banned him but they should have denied the ridiculous photo ops so helpful to his socials

2 cars booked in for MOT with Halfords this morning. After 1 week of daily automated reminder txts and CALLS, got there to find the garage still shut because none of the staff had keys. 🤷🏻♂️
I hadn’t seen the statement. If ITFC helped arrange it they have been very stupid. While some fans will support Reform, most I know are disgusted and members of my family have written to express their disappointment. I thought it was cockup, not conspiracy, so sad to see itfc defend it.
Photos with your own phone in the press room is part of every stadium tour. Tours are led by 1 or 2 tour guides so they would have known, but likely the management had no idea. Once the pic is taken it could be on social media within mins before anyone else at the club knew.
The thing @zackpolanski.bsky.social and the greens bring is authenticity. I don’t agree with all their policies, but I do respect them standing up for their values. I trust the greens to believe in what they say, and not sure I can say the same for other parties right now.
As a centrist I don’t feel that the Greens are radical left. Left for sure but filling the space that Labour used to before Reform dragged them right.
Almost every time one of my daughters gets a train from Ipswich back to Uni in the North on a Sunday evening, the train is cancelled, or delayed. So frustrating
Squirrel!
Darth Vader considering it but disappointed byTrump backing away from use of Force.
This, from the Guardian, is Ryanair at its very worst.
It's not good enough for them to insist that they're a low-cost airline and everyone knows the rules, in circumstances like this...
I wonder if legislation is needed?
The number of people who don’t wear shoes to the toilet on an aeroplane is remarkable. I don’t know what they are thinking.
I really wish @teamlabouruk.bsky.social would stop basing immigration policy based on what they read on X and the right wing press. In my experience it doesn’t reflect what regular working folk think.
I blame Sam Fender.
Starting to like this game!
Approval required
Which company will get the contract to design, build and administer the digital id card scheme? How much will that contract be worth, and how much money is expected to be saved by its implementation?
American fire engines, ambulances and police cars have no sense of time. Sirens blaring at every hour.

A reminder that most teenagers are more tech savvy than the ministers creating legislation. In the car with my 14 yr old boy and his mates the day the restrictions came into effect, they could all explain how to get round them. Maybe it will stall younger children
I can’t believe an genuine tailor would appear in a photo looking like that. @dieworkwear.bsky.social
Net migration fell almost 50% in the last year.
If Labour had held off a little longer, they might never have needed to go on a wild Reform-like attack on immigrants.
Too late now. We've all seen them do it.
Had no effect on Reform voters, but alienated many others.

What I learned from this debate: both sides of the immigration debate can quote data to support their viewpoint. Both sides accuse the other of using misleading data. No one has any real solutions to the immigration challenge.
@tortoisemedia.bsky.social had an episode about disgraced celebs using Cannes to build up their public persona again. @stephena1984.bsky.social
Both underestimate how easily moderate centrists will switch to Libs or Greens
Pretty sure at this point it is just Spads in Westminster and the TV news producers that read the papers.
Looking fwd to @zoejardiniere.bsky.social making the case for immigration
Ready for a topical debate

There’s lot to be upset with in the world right now but today’s wordle has pissed me right off.
I pay for and use Kagi. It is nearly as good as google used to be and is a lot better than google is now. I also use Duck Duck Go from time to time but Kagi gives better results most of the time. Listen to @edzitron.com for info why google search now sucks.
What of OpenAI long term financial viability? Google has massive revenue sources while OpenAI is burning cash fast. OpenAI may have better tech for now, but it hasn’t proven it can scale long term. As the saying goes: “the pioneers got the arrows, the settlers got the corn.”
The PM says ‘I get it’, says that ‘we’re moving in the right direction, but people must feel the benefits of change’. He says that he’ll ’go further and faster’ to make that happen.
This is all too typical.
The cherry on the cake is the ‘I get it’. It is exactly what Prime Ministers say these days, while doubling down on their agenda.
The focus group which says that this is an effective response should be disbanded.
