Inflation rose by 22.6% from 2019-2024.
In that same period, the 100 lowest-paying corporations paid their CEOs 34.7% more.
Worker pay didn't even keep up with the rate of inflation.
Those corporate tax breaks will never, ever, ever trickle down.
WE ARE BEING SCAMMED.

We got today so right. Double guard of honour, at the end we said goodbye properly to Trent, Klopp there, even the palace fans sticking around to party at the end.
Everything we’ve been owed for 5 years.

I’m starting to realise how massive my surgery was. How unlikely the result, after talking to my surgeon today.
The cancer I have and the way the scans look . . I was prepped for a terminal prognosis. They expected to have large chunks of inoperable tumour, in a cancer that was growing fast and

does not easily respond to chemo.
Instead they found no fluids, no sign of spread across my abdomen, no bad nodes. The cancer has, for whatever reason, stayed surface level on bowel. They achieved what they called a R0 Resection.
Which in ovarian cancer is massive apparently.

I don’t know how. But I’ve gone in 3 weeks from “this will likely kill you” to “mop up chemo and monitor to check this bitch doesn’t come back”
My head is still processing and likely will be for a while. And I’m not out the woods yet. Chemo for this is brutal. But I’ve got a dog in the fight now.

Are we clear now a private businessman shouldn’t be in a position to control the space program—that this richest man in the world fueled by drugs, ego & hate shouldn’t be partnering with a malignant sociopath in the WH immunized by the SCOTUS & bent on pocketing billions & flouting the Constitution?

The wild card is obviously Diaz himself, & how he reacts to us turning Barca down over negotiations, & the no new contract thing. We’ll have to see on that.

The Trump effect would be the Farage effect. Swagger and prejudice that are isolating and ruinous.
The Brexit shitshow and America’s humiliation should be sounding very loud alarm bells. Not encouraging more stupidity. #localelections

Right wing populist politics has been so damaging and so brain-achingly tedious this last decade. Look at where we are as a result. Far poorer, weaker, more divided, isolated from the EU and trying not to piss off an egomaniacal lunatic in the White House. Sovereignty at its most vulnerable.

If we do end up getting past PSG we could be missing one or more players for the 1st leg of the quarterfinals as 5 players (Elliott, Ibrahima Konate, Alexis Mac Allister, Robertson and Virgil van Dijk) are one booking away from suspension (via Ged Rea).

Nice to see Gakpo training. He looked pretty rusty in the 2 sub apps he had after recovering from injury the first time, but given how inconsistent Diaz can be and how little Slot trusts Chiesa it's important Cody is available.
