The Labour conference started yesterday. In Liverpool. And its really exiting, but like REALLY!!!! Because Labour have never, in anyone who still has the facility to remember anything’s memory, been in the situation of being ‘miles ahead’ in the opinion polls. Twenty points. ‘The election is theirs to lose!!!!’, as they say. So Labour don’t – Read More-
It’s all a matter of perspective. When I heard yesterday that 300 Israelis had been murdered in an attack by Hamas on the southern towns and kibbutzim, I was deeply saddened. But when I heard that 60 people had been ‘taken hostage’, I was near to tears. Just by the way, virtually all those murdered – Read More-
We’ll be watching tv, and on it will come… adverts!!! I know, who watches live tv, ffs??? but sometimes we do. And I’ll hear my wife utter a semi-silent “hmmm…” or “ooooh…” and I know that within two shakes of an Amazon delivery van, or possibly one brief visit to John Lewis, Waitrose, Robert Dyas, – Read More-
There is no direct Scouse translation for the phrase ‘victimless crime’. None that anyone south of Stoke could understand anyway. But the reason is; whatever happens, Liverpool FC are the victims. The word ‘victim’ now has a permanent place on the club logo, just under the Liver-bird and all new players are tattooed with the – Read More-
Here’s a great idea: we’ll build a brand new railway network, specifically to provide much faster north to south of the country links but also because the existing network and tracks are all Victorian and beaten to shit by a century of abuse and neglect, bit like the Royal family. So we need to replace – Read More-
HOLD THE FRONT PAGE! CANCEL THE TORY CONFERENCE! HAVE A CEASEFIRE IN UKRAINE! FORGET THAT SADIQ KAHN IS A TOTAL NOB! WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT THE SPURS/LIVERPOOL GAME LAST NIGHT!!! A match so steeped in controversy, so riddled with errors and mistakes, a game so mired in issues and technicalities that it went on – Read More-
Today is the day we’ve been waiting for since… ages ago. It is the start of the Women’s Super League!!! Deprived of women’s football since… whenever it was, oh yeah, losing the World Cup Final, it’s coming back TODAY! That makes last week’s Spurs match at Arsenal totally irrelevant in my life, this afternoon’s visit – Read More-
I like numbers. Especially big ones. Unless they’re written in red ink on my bank statement. Other than that, bigger the better. And today’s scientific breakthrough is a new laser. They’re building it to try and activate protons to make them dance. So they can initiate nuclear fusion to provide us with 2 million years – Read More-
They sent up a space thingy. Seven years ago. To travel about 2 billion miles out to deep space. And these are proper miles, not those silly ones my electric car uses which are (sometimes) only about 300 yards long. The space thingy would have been travelling at approximately 27,000 miles per hour. That is – Read More-
Today is the ‘North-London-derby’, a match so unique, so revered, so… special that it warrants more column inches, or even centimetres, of prattle, speculation, hypothesising, naval-gazing and ranting than all the other football matches played in the world, combined!!! It is also the match which, for most Spurs fans, defines the sentiment that ‘we can – Read More-
