Interesting news values here from the BBC
BBC home page with some story about immigrants top, and the election of a socialist Muslim mayor in arguably the most high profile city in the world as second lead

What an absolutely incredible framing of the respective starts to the season!!
For a start, just look at the fixtures Liverpool have already played. In their opening seven Premier League matches, Slot's side have already faced five clubs who currently sit in the top eight. They are actually a point better off when you compare their results so far this term to the corresponding games last season. Arsenal, who have been installed as title favourites after taking over at the top, have only faced two of the current top eight - taking just one point out of a possible six from matches against Liverpool and Manchester City.

And I for one am sick of all the “noise” around ID cards. Surely everyone is happy handing out their information to government these days?!
He told me a few weeks ago, as he began to publicly toy with it, that plenty of us are now much more used to handing bits of personal data to all sorts of institutions and companies we deal with online. So, the logic goes, plenty will be comfortable doing the same thing with the government. Let's see. What is undoubtedly the case is that there is, again, noisy opposition to the idea.

It might be because he is so pious. But to be fair to Sir Keir, despite being so pious and lofty like the left winger he is, at least he recognised how awful immigration is, like normal people
There was a confessional vibe at times to the conversation, borne of a fear the left can exude a piety and loftiness off-putting to many. Sir Keir's take on this was that Labour took far too long to recognise the deep-seated concerns from many about illegal immigration.

Calling Starmer “left wing” in this day and age is quite a statement
He heads to the north west of England after a day in the company of fellow left-wing leaders at a conference in London.

This must be hammered home. You don’t defeat Reform with any kind of immigration policy because deep down they want a white only nation. Labour/Lib Dems should be ashamed of their part in this. Tax the rich, improve public services, put efforts into climate change and raise standards of living
Lib Dems also falling into the bullshit of "if we resolve the asylum backlog efficiently, we defeat Reform". Reform don't care about the 'asylum backlog' outside of it being a tool. It could be 0 people and it wouldn't matter as long as there are people of colour in the UK. That is the end goal.

The prospect of deciding to keep a manager after he wins a cup will make people think of Manchester United u-turning to keep Erik ten Hag this time last year. That turned out to be an expensive waste of time, which ruined United's season. But this would not necessarily be the same as that.

Appeasement works! If we do more appeasing, sooner or later Trump will start to settle down. That’s how it works
A No 10 source said: "We don't want any tariffs at all, but a lower levy than others vindicates our approach. It matters because the difference between 10% and 20% is thousands of ijobs."

So this is a worry. Any other season ticket holders getting this message?

Ok, in principle I agree, but then I see posts like this from Liverpool fans, and I just can’t

Very true Rob in Gateshead. People are just not willing to confront the fact Arsenal are short up front. It’s barely been mentioned. Great bit of insight there Rob in Gateshead
