The family in the flat across the landing from me are from Ghana, and their eldest lad, Eric, has just spent 20 minutes asking me about rugby league after watching the Wigan v Saints game on tv and now wants to get into playing. After yesterday's political shitshow, this cheered me up no end.

Reform candidate who said ‘Nigerians should be melted down to fill in pot holes’ wins seat Glenn Gibbins, the candidate for Hylton Castle Ward in Sunderland, has won his seat in this week’s council elections. Areas like these* voted heavily in favour of Brexit in 2016 metro.co.uk/2026/05/09/r...
Reform councillor said 'Nigerians should be melted down to fill in pot holes'

Did they ever get round to replacing the lead water pipes in Sunderland? Sunderland can proudly boast one reform councillor, David Barker, who is a domestic abuser & another, Glenn Gibbins, who made some abhorrent comments about Nigerians.
All together now! ... "But Nige did take five million quid, and Nige would take five million more!" 💥💥💥 #RefUKkers
This actually happened before, but it’s not a cult
Question to the NFL: Why would the super bowl ever go to a jim crow state that intentionally strips representation from black people?
You didn't "earn" a billions dollars, Jeff Bezos. You *took it* from your poorly paid workers.
Zelensky issued an official presidential decree authorizing Russia to hold its Victory Day parade in Moscow tomorrow. He included the exact coordinates of Red Square. That's it. A+ trolling.
Remember when you told us we were being hysterical the night of the election in 2016? Remember when you told us SCOTUS was gonna be fine? That they wouldnt strip away abortion rights? Remember when we told you they were coming after marginalized communities?

The Epstein case is so bad the government gave you a war, a new virus, and aliens to keep you distracted from it. Sit with that as long as you need.
florida blatantly disregarding their state constitution is fine though? texas not putting it up to vote is fine though? but dems use a democratic process and virginia is invalid by a technicality?!
The President of the United States is a danger to the United States. And Congress and SCOTUS are complicit. 🇺🇸
Ha ha ha ha. As if I would want to go to Trumps shit hole country. #BoycottTheWorldCup
50 days to go until the World Cup starts and so many reasons why it should not be celebrated. Between the orange paranoid fascist in the US and the oil crisis that will leave us without planes, could we just postpone it or cancel it altogether? #BoycottTheWorldCup
The numbers don't lie. Trump reaches for his "low IQ" characterization more often when he’s denouncing Black people. Notice, though, that it’s just not Black people but Black women who draw much of Trump’s wrath.
Is Trump a racist? Let’s look at the stats.
Whom does he call "low IQ" the most?

Just a reminder that Trump tore down the WH, no approval, just bulldozed it all willynilly one day and promised the new monstrosity (the cost was $200mil) would be paid for with donations from his crooked friends. Now Republicans want us to give him $1 bil of our tax dollars. HELL TO THE NO!!!
Republicans in Congress are proposing $1 billion in funding for security for President Trump's White House ballroom as part of their partisan plan to fund Immigration and Customs Enforcement. n.pr/4ewVKVQ
This AP headline should have lost you at, “according to a White House analysis”. We can’t believe the shit coming out of this administration.
