Back in 2018 I did a little film with Mundial magazine and Ladbrokes about #swfc. It disappeared off YouTube. I've just managed to find it through an old Mundial tweet. 💙 #SheffieldWednesday

Something very British about our wannabe fascist dictator being the guy who messed up running Southampton football club.
Lowe's latest policy is a referendum on the death penalty, followed by the retrospective introduction of capital punishment for past murders.
"If the British people support the reintroduction of the death penalty in our referendum, a Restore Britain Government would put Axel Rudakubana to death"

Your man may have broken his own organisation’s rules on political neutrality. But these things only matter when others seem to do it. So nothing to see here.

If Andrew is held overnight by police.
'Andrew will be placed in "a cell in a custody suite" with just "a bed and a toilet", where he will wait until his police interview. Shaw says "there'll be no special treatment for him".'

Sheffield Wednesday have played almost as many goalkeepers as they’ve managed points this season. Bonkers situation.
Seny Dieng is probably the best emergency loan they can hope for heading into the Steel City derby. Is experienced and knows the level inside out. #SWFC 🦉⚽️

BBC reporting that Andrew Mountbatten Windsor has been arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office.
There is no precedent for a senior member of the royal family being placed under arrest in modern British history. A seismic moment for the monarchy.

I’m a London parent who hasn’t vaccinated my kids against measles, let me explain

Nigel Farage lashes out at a FT journalist and refuses to answer the question.
Is this how Reform UK would ignore media questions if they got into government?
