Such joy. Chelsea humiliated by a stupendous display from #bhafc. Wonderful individual performances across the entire team.

A carnival atmosphere at the Amex. Pascal running the show. #bhafc
“Staggering and unbelievable,” says Keir Starmer. Yes, it is. Your judgement. #c4news
His nicknames were "the Prince of Darkness" and "the Dark Lord".
He was repeatedly sacked from government for lying.
His connections to Epstein and Russia were widely reported for years.
Yet Starmer still trying to claim he was somehow kept in the dark about Mandelson being a wrongun. Come on
He didn’t need to be formally vetted through some laborious process. The public vetted him years ago
It's going to be even worse the next time they appoint Peter Mandelson
Always good value at interviews is Erling Haaland. #mciars
Oh yes. Good result. Very assured from Boscagli. Would have got the Greek lad on earlier.
Georginio. On the back of a poor season for him, scores a lovely equaliser. With aplomb. Brilliant assist from van Hecke. #bhafc
Concern grows for Suella Braverman as she completely forgets she spent nine years as part of the Conservative government, including two periods as Home Secretary, responsible for immigration.
Have nothing but respect for Bayern, a real club run by real people that just get it……..
Hahaha. My son is there. I rate it match of the season. Defining maybe for both clubs, Warwick. Some obvious ‘links’ there, including Paul Barber of course.
the Mandelson Russia links alone should have triggered more curiosity before his appointment
Indeed. On a more flippant level, I’d be concerned about anyone dubbed the ‘Prince of Darkness’…..
No way will Brighton lose. A win or a draw for sure
Yep. He was dubbed the ‘Prince of Darkness’ over 30 years ago. I, as a humble citizen, could have told Keir Starmer, not to touch him with a barge pole……
All the stuff about vetting, advisers and process misses the point that everyone knew who Peter Mandelson was, what he had done and who he had associated with for literally years before Keir Starmer made him ambassador and lots of people pointed it out at the time. He appointed him anyway
Underwhelming display. Man City must be licking their lips at the prospect of playing Arsenal at the weekend. #arsspo
Never had any interest at all in going - I will be watching on a sporadic basis. I haven’t looked at times of screening.
37 years on from the day that led to the unlawful deaths of 97 Liverpool fans and a year on from when a promised Hillsborough Law should have been in place, the message to the Prime Minister is simple…
I think that would have been a soft penalty, had it been given #livpsg
Jeremie Frimpong will be lucky to make the Netherlands squad on his recent displays. Come on down, Mats Wieffer. #livpsg
It’s fascinating to see the hardening of language by the UK government against the Trump war:
Rachel Reeves has dubbed the US-Israeli war in Iran as “folly”.
The chancellor said “no sensible person” supported the Iranian regime but directly criticises Washington for its lack of strategic aims.
She doesn’t feel isolated. Emboldened when she’s sees the falling support for Doctor Trump. Pope Leo and erstwhile ally Georgia Meloni weighing in - the icing on the cake!
Well said. Sick to the back teeth of hearing Kemi Badenoch speak of it.
“Brexit betrayal” - oh for god’s sake..
Every day, we’re paying to be poorer. We’re paying to be second class citizens on our own continent. We’re paying to queue. We’re paying for more red tape. We’re paying to be less secure and less trusted.
Brexit IS the betrayal. And so is defending it.
Incoming Hungarian PM Péter Magyar calls for the UK to rejoin the European Union:
"I remember when I was a diplomat in Brussels... We were able to influence decisions. At the time, the Brits were also part of the EU. Let's hope they will rejoin."
