Quite depressing, this. Super high earners already pay higher rates on ~ all of their income. Freezing or cutting thresholds, Labour's alternative, is all but irrelevant to them but will disproportionately whack the take home pay of the squeezed middle. on.ft.com/4o1gfLf

My old man wasn’t there today because he’s ill (thank fuck as I was still getting the odd, “Fuck me, what had you been drinking last Sunday, Turps?”) but I sold his ticket back to City and my Dad gets about £20 back as it’s a concession.

I asked the lad in his seat what he paid. £250.

"Sheffield can’t emulate Manchester. And it shouldn't try.

"It was always smaller, more isolated, more independent and idiosyncratic. These are things the city can sell on a global scale, should it choose to.

"Sheffield can be Portland next to Manchester’s Seattle."

the most important thing i learned at school was from my media teacher, who told me that the tories would win the 2010 election because they had the backing of rupert murdoch. i told him surely people aren't that stupid. lo and behold...
School pupils are to be taught how to tackle conspiracy theories, spot 'fake news' & root out misinformation. The Daily Mail, ajudged by Wikipedia to be an unreliable new source, is furious. You don't have to be Sherlock Holmes to work out why.

A 9-year-old Palestinian Boy Stood at a Distance. An Israeli Soldier Knelt and Shot Him Dead.

Eyewitnesses say Muhammad stood with his arms folded, posing no threat, when a single, deadly shot was fired. The soldiers later appeared to celebrate. The IDF said the incident is under review.

A good use of state power for this government *right now* would be get utterly mediaeval with Chansiri and find a way to strip him of ownership.
Sheffield Wednesday’s perilous financial plight has worsened after being placed in administration by owner Dejphon Chansiri this morning.

Staff at the Championship club have been informed of the situation.

The same people who defended the collective punishment of Palestinian civilians, which meant thousands of innocent people died, are now outraged by the collective punishment of Maccabi Tel Aviv football fans, which will mean a few hundred innocent people miss a football match.

Sheffield Wednesday, one of the oldest clubs in the world and based in the city that literally created the modern game, are about to be served a winding up order. But "Senior government figures" can immediately rush into action to defend the rights of... maccabi tel aviv fans. Oki doke.

When they call it the world’s game they mean American financial institutions buy English clubs which acquire European clubs to hoard players from Africa and South America so the English club can secure a place in a Gulf State-run Super League that will inevitably play in America

On the morning of Keir Starmer's conference speech here's a new post on an odd psychopathology in British politics - our main parties don't like the people who vote for them - the dreaded Professional Managerial Class. And so they are acting out like a divorced dad seeking cooler voters. 1/n
