LibDem #FBPE - No to Racists/Reform - #EFC fan but watches local team #NCFC. A baseball fan who supports the #Dodgers. Views are my own & don’t represent my employers or my party

Just putting this out there - I couldn’t care less #FantasyFootball . I went to a match a few years ago where a player missed a pen & a fan behind me was more upset that they had missed out on fantasy points than the fact that their own team had missed the real goal. My priority is my real team.

If the #BBC is serious about saving money, could they explain why two of their staff (Charlotte Coates & George Booth) are currently live streaming text reports from a Liverpool pre season friendly? How is this good use of license fee money?

So, Farage wants Zac Polanski to investigated by the police. Funny how Nigel didnt want the police to investigate Reform's Deputy Leader of Lancs CC, Simon Collins, when he shared a FB post calling for a Labour MP to be shot. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Reform UK councillor shared Facebook post saying Labour MP ‘should be shot’

Natalie Fleet MP says politicians should not expect ‘death threats as standard’, as Lancashire councillor apologises

Little Nicky Watt squirms with excitement every time he’s given the opportunity to promote Reform Ltd, at a pinch the toxic Tories. It‘s the reason he gets up in the morning.

Last night, after spending 12 mins drilling @zackpolanski.bsky.social over accepting a post collab on Instagram Newsnight interrupted live TV four times to read out messages from Reform UK @mrjamesob.bsky.social Any thoughts on why they're doing this?

If I were a Green supporter (I’m obviously not), I’d be absolutely furious that Polanski has allowed Farage, Braverman & Yusuf to occupy the moral high ground on this . Can’t see him not having to resign . #R4today

After grilling Zach Polanski, Newsnight @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social now interrupting the follow-up discussion every 30 secs to read out texts from Farage, Jenrick et al verbatim & without scrutiny, like some kind of Reform stenography service. I think I just witnessed the death of British journalism.

I don’t care about pre season results. I DO care that after 18 months, we still don’t have a right back. It’s criminal that Everton have people paid to identify transfers who can’t find a single right back.#EFC
