The only Legitimate Concerns about asylum seekers are concerns for their well being and safety. For a rich country like ours to incessantly whine about these people as if we are their victims is perhaps the single most pathetic spectacle in British politics over the past quarter century.
No, I'd say it's racists and those pandering to them.

I have a certain level of sympathy for the club itself, there's only so much they can do. But if something like this was happening at AP the hardcore old school fans would yeet the idiot out & tell them to never come back. I get as frustrated as the next fan by officials. But no ref, no game 1/
To be clear:

The abuse in question was more sexually aggressive than sexist.

Contrary to a widely reported claim by their manager, the culprit was not identified and removed. The nearby fans circled the wagons and the abandonment was therefore inevitable.

A match was abandoned after sexist abuse towards a female referee on Saturday.

AFC Rushden & Diamonds' game at Coventry Sphinx was abandoned at half time after the referee told the teams she would not continue.

The teams play in the eighth tier.

Top travel tip. Avoid the ignominy of being barged back off the tube by a 6ft3in, 17st sluffian that knows how to use their height and weight to their advantage by simply allowing people to alight the tube before trying to rush on for the 1 seat you clearly dont need. 1/2

"If you don't let me punch you in the face, the other guy will kick you in the nuts" doesn't seem like a sustainable political message.

Usually I hate it when there's football on in the dump next-door, but today it's Brazil vs Senegal. Atmosphere on the Holloway Rd when I get back from Sunny Sluff will be amazing 🇧🇷 ⚽️ 🇸🇳

I swore I was done with party politics, I didn't want to go up against my local independent mp, but my word @zackpolanski.bsky.social is good at this. I'm so close to joining. I want to see my borough turn from red to green next May. I think the budget may tip me over the edge and make me join

Looks like a very decent prospect for the carrot crunchers up the A4. We'll look after him and my word did we need a DM while Henry is out for another month. #OneSlough

And we knew this. This wasn't speculation. We studied it, we had the talking points. We trained volunteers to explain this to people. It's not a surprise. Rich people don't flee places with good quality of life when we increase the quality of life. They might try to cheat us, but they don't leave.
NEW: The first two years of Massachusetts' millionaire tax has raised $3 billion more than expected.

And rather than driving the rich away, IPS researchers found that the number of millionaires has *increased.*

1st chance to try the cask Boddingtons. Its fine, nothing outstanding, but solid. Brilliant selection at The Robin as always. And 5 of them just under £5 a pint, which for this town is amazing value. Half of that Impy Stout next

It's my 1st ever #FAVase game tomorrow. Eschewing the #Rebels to see if @haringeyboroughfc.bsky.social can keep the dream of Wembley alive. I'll have RebelsRadio in my ear at Coles Park though
