The world is being divided. Round here it is, anyway. Not just between the anti-semites and the good people, but so much division. And its bad. Its… divisive.

The Labour Party is now totally divided over the Ken Livingstone ‘shit’. If he’s thrown out of the party for his comments, the left will be in uproar. If he isn’t, the right will. Either way, one thing’s for sure: Ken won’t apologise. Ever, about anything substantial. And I don’t know why this lack of apology for saying disgraceful things is such a surprise that its front page news. Ken was suspended from being Mayor ‘back in the day’ for telling a (Jewish, son of holocaust-survivors) journalist that he was like a ‘concentration camp guard’. No, wouldn’t apologise. Not Ken. He was and is a tosser-of-principle. Which is like being a man of principle but one that’s always wrong. In principle.

Then there’s Arsenal. The Wenger debate is heating up as it does every season at about this time when the Arsenal ‘loyal’ realise it really hasn’t been so great a season, even with 87% of possession. So one half of the Emirates during last night’s game was holding up banners calling for Wenger to leave, with some going so far as to state this a reason for a Brexit from Europe, so Wenger and other smelly French people would no longer have rights to work here. The other half proclaimed its eternal devotion to ‘the Professor’, and we’ll call those fans ‘the ostriches’ for having their little red-and-white heads buried so far in the turf. So its divided.

Europe? Divisive. Terribly. Much as the Labour party is split over its unwanted left-turn since Corbyn arrived with McDonell, Goebels et al, so the Conservatives may not recover from the stupid European referendum. If we leave Cameron will simply have to go. If we stay, what happens to Boris? To Michael Gove? To all the Brexiteers?

So now they’re debating the video of the Queen being funny and relaxed and natural with Harry in the company of the the Obamas. Honestly, the Queen fraternising with black people; whatever next? Oh, no, what they’re saying is that its ‘unbecoming’ for her to be seen basically, having fun and being relaxed. Well fuck ’em. After 90 years of totally committed stiffness, formality and impeccably perfect behaviour, Her Maj is entitled to let her guard down for 4 minutes on youtube.
I can’t behave properly for 4 minutes out of every year; give her a break.

Only Spurs are undivided. We stand united, together and solid. We love each other and have no issues we can’t cope with. Not Chelsea, not Leicester, nothing. Even without Dele Alli, we will go marching on. As one. Amen.

Happy Sunday
