UEFA. I'd be happy if they pull euro teams out of the world cup. Don't think they have much of a an option. That would leave a non world cup far weaker than the euros and could unravel FIFA.
The World Cup starts today which provides the theme for the @artukdotorg.bsky.social#OnlineArtExchange this week ⚽
'A Tense Moment' by William H. Pearce from National Football Museum

We are truly ######. Reform voters sitting down to watch a David Attenborough tribute. Maybe a benign dictatorship, Singapore style isn't such a bad idea
I nearly fell off my chair when I found out that Gibraltar HAS NEVER HAD A SEWAGE PLANT and therefore ALL ITS RAW, UNTREATED SEWAGE (from a mere 40,000 people and their businesses) is dumped straight into the MEDITERRANEAN Sea. Great work, guys.

We must stand in solidarity with Jews being attacked by antisemitic criminals and terrorists: no ifs or buts. We must stand in solidarity with Palestinians being murdered by the Israeli government: no ifs or buts. These are not contradictory positions. They are consistent ones. 🧵1/5
Can only see king Charles visit to fascist land as doing nothing but lessen support for the monarchy. Not a good look, although, whether he has an iota of a say is another matter.
Donald Trump is a reflection of what America has become: a nation comprised primarily of uneducated, arrogant, racist buffoons without a conscience or even basic social skills, scamming their way thru life with impunity while believing that laws apply only to other people— never to them.
For all the Starmer talk, I can't think of one politician better equipped to deal with the current trump inspired crisis. Hes compromised brilliantly, more criticism of Israel being the only fault. Not being in the EU it's a hugely difficult situation to bridge.
The US military has 22 sites in the UK.
Every day long range US bombers are taking off here to drop bombs on Iran.
This is a rogue state carrying out war crimes, and threatening more.
The UK Government must grow a spine - and stop our bases being used for this war.
He skipped church. Dropped the F-bomb. Praised Allah. On Easter.
You can’t make this up. The man tweets war threats while you hunt eggs with your kids.
THIS is your president, America. Wake up.
This is an extraordinary front page for a British newspaper to run. Donald Trump’s delinquency, derangement & imperilling of international security is somehow a stick with which to beat our own Prime Minister, who has negotiated the current horror show rather well. It is actually sickening.
Having the words of a pathological liar on the news everyday seems pretty pointless. Nice if a British news channel decided to give him zero coverage for a while.
An illegal war waged by two countries the UK arms & supports
B52s launched from British soil. Israeli jets built with British parts
A UK economy still hooked on fossil fuels.
We must end support for the war, cut fossil fuel addiction & support families facing this price shock.
Trump begging for help against a military he claims is 100% defeated and from allies he has spent a year insulting.
It’s over.
Not yet officially but politically, Trump’s Presidency died this week.
US bombers loading up on UK airstrips before raining down bombs on Iran.
Parliament wasn't consulted - and polling shows huge numbers oppose it.
When do MPs get a say over our involvement in this war?

From mandatory ID cards to arresting pensioners for holding up cardboard signs to cosy deals with US tech spy firms:
It's good to see lawyers pushing back on their increasingly authoritarian Govenrment.
We must protect jury trials.
Paralympics this c4 commentator is obsessed with Russia being at the games, no mention of USA attacking or threatening to attack so many countries. It's s little embarrassing. And now he's talking about it again. Pathetic. And again. Turning off
The U.S. war on Iran is now estimated to cost $1 billion per day. Meanwhile Americans are told there’s no money for healthcare, hospitals, or basic social programs.
