Love that the activists were playing "Jilted Generation" to the cops. Seems apt!

Watching United has been hard since my father passed. We watched matches together for 30 years.
When we beat Liverpool in the cup last year (after I'd finished laughing!) I burst into tears. Hit without warning. He'd have loved that finish.
I miss him every day.

Funny how Farage, Clarkson et. al are fine with blocking the roads and disrupting people in London when they perceive it affects them.

Remember that episode of the Simpson's when Homer gets put in charge of the town's trash and Springfield becomes a total dump so they just pick the town up, move it 5 miles down the road & start again
That's kinda what's happened with Twitter & Bluesky
