Women in Spain don't change their names when they marry. If latin American voters follow the same tradition, this could backfire.

I was just thinking that, but I would imagine that there it will be more conservative-leaning women who bow to tradition and change their name.

If you speak to a lot of voters, they could not tell you which constituency they live in, who their MP is, or who they voted for.

But the players, many of whom are immigrants themselves, have an audience of millions on social media and on international TV every week. They are in a position to counter Ratcliffe's racist nonsense.

It would be interesting to see the team's foreign players make a stand against Radcliffe, either on social media or on the field.

Manchester United is a very successful club specifically due to immigrants from all over the world.
Manchester is a very successful city for very similar reasons.
Jim Ratcliffe is a Grade A thundercunt who has no place running a football club.

I thought that a pardon didn't mean that you were innocent, just that your sentence was commuted even after being found guilty.

For similar reasons that the leader of Reform Wales went to prison for 10 years while the leader of Reform UK continues to be lauded by the UK media?

One thing's for sure: despite the media doing their absolute best to uncritically promote them every single day, Reform's ideology is not shared by the people of Scotland and Wales. They're an English problem.

I'm surprised to see that result in Pembrokeshire. The place has a sizeable population of English retirees and second home-owners.

They're polling at under 30% in Wales, they have almost no one that they can form a coalition with, and the Senedd uses PR to elect MSs, so there's no chance of them getting a majority do to vote splitting/distribution.

Reform will never get into power in the Senedd anyway. It's an empty threat to try to stoke their desperate culture war.
