It reminds me of the metal barrier in working men's clubs and the old Yates's Wine Bars to indicate where to queue.

Worth recalling just how lacklustre Burnham's previous attempts at the leadership were. He lost to Corbyn just think about that. He has a vision for Manchester and the North and a solid record in starting to make it work. He's no PM & would make Started look decisive

You will get better and better at this with the passing years.

What percentage of those European fixtures are utterly pointless, devoid of risk, uncertainty, or general spectator interest. They are relentlessly cheapening the game& confusing spectators

And if anyone baulks at either term then plain old fashioned bully works. He had no reason whatever to enter the Junior School as a 6th former. He did with his cronies and repeatedly bullied much younger boys, singling out black and jewish pupils.

Why are we so fixated on the need for incredibly cheap flights, that requires a bizarre tax free treatment - when half of us don’t fly and half of all flights are taken by just 10% of us. It’s a (relatively) rich persons thing, a luxury not a necessity. Tax it. And use the money to reduce poverty.
