Yep, just don't get it. You don't just stay to the end in case of a Struijk vs Sunderland or Tanaka vs Liverpool, it's why you go in the first place, to be there for that moment.
Lad next to me left at 90+2. Weird.

One of his constituents is a family member of mine, who sits in our local Indian restaurant, complaining about immigrants.
We try to educate him on the topic but he's been completely radicalised by the Daily Heil.
I want Labour to confront the fash lies, not be fash-lite.

It's nice that, like any bully, he's showing the world that he can't take being confronted. Call him what he is, every day, to his face. Destroy the chummy, mate down the pub persona he carefully cultivated.
Hoping this leads to his slide into fash irrelevance.

Thank you for saving me the bother of looking that up myself. Thought that's how it would've played out.

I’m sorry but 4B is absolute peanuts in terms of headroom of a spend of about 1200B. Imagine I told you that you had a yearly budget spend £1000 and your income was £1003.33, that’s the equivalent here. This is just relying on people not being able to understand large numbers

We know folk who love Indian restaurants & "don't want immigrants". I genuinely have no idea how they square that off.
We will stress Farage's racism to them while not calling them racist. Not sure what else we can do tbh.

I think his reaction will involve shrugging it off with words like poppycock & balderdash.
Then a jolly good lunch & churning out 1,000 words for the Mail on how life in Britain was better in the 1940s or bringing back flogging.
