Scum fans love Fernandes when he's being a twat on their behalf but boo him when he's just being a twat. I don't know what's worse. Them or him? #LUFC

Palace and scum performances say that we are crying out for more fire power up front. If others can do it then we should also have mullered both these weak teams. Wilson needs to show why he plays for Leeds and maybe Bahoya should be given a significant run out today. #LUFC

#TheTraitors only works if there is some jeopardy throughout. The Celebrity Faithful are so dim that the show is dying on its arse.

The #SNP based it's economic case for independence on North sea oil and gas revenue so backing the #Jackdaw approval should please the #IndyRef crew. Swinney has grudgingly welcomed a UK Govt decision that is driving a wedge within the SNP and with #ScottishGreens. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cw...

bbc.co.ukJackdaw updates: UK government approves drilling in gas fieldThe government says the move will "heat millions of homes" and protect jobs, while environmentalists argue it will hamper efforts to cut planet-warming carbon emissions.

#MattHancock has been selling himself as a healthcare expert along with his mate Lord Bethell, the man who sorted a parliamentary pass for Hancock’s 'aide', Gina Coladangelo. Shameless, unrepentant, incompetent. www.havilland-health.com/team #Covid19Inquiry

French demonstrators - opportunist crims, thugs and anarchists - protesting inequality, capitalism and super-wealth by robbing local shopkeepers and burning down council buildings. Fuckwits. #France #Riots

A draw with the Scum has its upside. Sure, we could have edged it and, on balance, were the better team. But, unlike Amorin, this 1-1 against Leeds means that Carrick carries on giving mediocre management to a bottom half team. #LUFC #MUFC #ManU

As I was saying... 🙄 #LUFC

DCL should be there to make the difference, hold the ball with an accurate lay-off or turn a so-so cross into a goal. Not happening today. I really wish we had an option for him. #LUFC

What do I think? I think Sagal Abdi-Wali won a by-election. Which is something Matt Goodwin failed to do. There's winners and there's losers, Matt.

Don't hide behind your followers Matt. Tell us what YOU think about it

PM releases the info - a meeting, a couple of hospitality gigs at Citeh, some trade delegations and thats it. All legit Mayoral stuff. But Tory blimp, Louie French MP, gets hysterical, “If Burnham has nothing to hide, why is he being so tight-lipped?" 🤨 www.theguardian.com/football/202...

theguardian.comBurnham’s meeting with City’s al-Mubarak and other contact with club disclosedAndy Burnham had a formal meeting with Khaldoon al-Mubarak at an investment summit and was also a guest at a ‘small number’ of home games, the Greater Manchester Combined Authority has said

In the pub. It's quiet round these parts for the lunchtime kick off. Only tables reserved are for 5.30. Apparently, some people want to watch a bottom half clash.🙄

#YourParty dead and buried, #GreenParty imploding, #LibDem leadership challenge. Looks like the #LabourParty is the only stable left wing choice at the moment. And they're in government as well! Who'd have thunk it?

Zack saying that the Green vote tripled and his stans saying that they couldn't have done it (lost?) without him. The 2024 anti-Labour/pro-Gaza candidate, Andrew Feinstein, got 7,312 votes. He didn't stand this time yet the GP vote only rose from 4,030 to 8,928. Nowhere near tripled. Sad really.

Thank you Holborn & St Pancras. Our second best byelection result ever. 💚

As long as they drop the maudling #CafeHope and alt-claptrap like #Sideways I won't complain too much. But holding on to tired formats like #StartTheWeek and #InOurTime is just baiting the average listener to reach for the off button as well. #BBCR4

According to the BBC, 'A Green Party spokesperson said: "Where members have expressed views that do not fit in with the party's values, we have internal processes to investigate."' What a bleakly hilarious party the Greens have become. #GreenParty #ZackPolanski www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

And lo, it came to pass...

I'll bet #ZackPolanski was hoping for a GE and Diane Abbott's Hackney North seat so he could hoover up local Green votes. But political life comes at you fast. The Burnham Bounce and impending Green conference bonkersness are going to make it tough for Zack's campaign. www.bbc.com/news/article...

#GreenParty conference spent 3 hrs today debating a motion that zionism is racism. Not sure that left them time to also debate their pro-Iran motion.🤪 This party has been captured by self indulgent extremist cranks. The real fears and concerns that the electorate face deserve better than this.

I get that the right wing press are happy to embrace Matthew Syed and his contrarian hot takes. But BBC R4 programming continue to platform Syed and his increasingly uninteresting mumbo-jumbo show. I guess the BBC aren't that quick on the uptake. #BBCR4

Green Party to bring failing water companies into public ownership by Christmas, you say? I feel like there might be a flaw in this plan. Let me think...

Curtice and Calder: the media's automatic go-to on elections and travel. The two should get together for a podcast interviewing TV default gobshites: McTernan, Blunkett, Tominey, Campbell, Varoufakis, Hazarika, Moran and any Johnson you can name! Call it 'Poll to Pole'. #JohnCurtice #SimonCalder

A 100% ⬆️ in Band D for LBHF residents would still see them paying about the same as my council currently charges. The nat average wage is £37K. LBHF average wage is just under £60K. Not to mention property values. My heart bleeds. Pay up. #CouncilTax #LBHF www.theguardian.com/society/2026...

What were you thinking, Andy? a) Banging on about how Everton were stiffed (false equivalence); b) Focusing on how much Manchester regen has depended on Emirates money (choosing the wrong side). Burnham needs to be PM first and Evertonian and former Manc Mayor second. @andyburnham.bsky.social

Dan Neidle is on the case and the detail. A small matter of £12m in unpaid taxes. #MUFC #ManCity #Citeh

Dan Neidle@danneidle.bsky.social

Manchester City cheated Premier League rules, the Commission found. Did it also cheat HMRC? We've examined the decision and leaked Mancini documents. We think City likely failed to pay £12m in tax. There should be a criminal investigation. Thread:

Burnham asks for an adult response from other parties. The response from left and right opposition is anything but. Greens and LibDems squeezed to the fringes, complaining. Tories and Reform predictably frothing at the mouth. A radical Labour Govt is back. @andyburnham.bsky.social
