On here for Tranmere Rovers and football things mainly.
Politically I would say I am on the Liberal Left and support the Lib Dems.
But I don't talk politics when talking about football.

It’s really simple…

- Cap all political donations
- Ban foreign donations
- Strict conflict‑of‑interest & anti‑corruption laws with penalties
- No titles, honours or peerages for donors
- No govt contracts for donors
- Publish every donation/lobby meeting

…that’ll do it.

Fifa has been corrupt for years but making up a peace prize just to court favour from the current US President seems a new low even for them.

It's been 131 days since Trump threatened Putin with a 50-day deadline. Instead, he wants Ukraine to sign a deal that hands over, currently controlled, territory to Russia.

Yep. And to think that so many people think this man is some sort of hero is such a sign of our twisted times.

Inside and outside of Parliament, there's a growing cross-party consensus: our voting system is not working.

The Govt. must decide what they think is fairer, taxing struggling families or taxing big banks?

LIB DEM WIN!

The government has finally given in to our longstanding campaign to improve the quality of military family homes.

Our amendment to the Renters’ Rights Bill will, require the Ministry of Defence to assess service family housing and report on whether it meets the Decent Homes Standard.

The Greens requested an interview on the Laura Kuenssberg Show with Zack Polanski when he was elected leader, but were denied, with a promise to interview him during Green conference instead.

This was then scrapped citing the Manchester synagogue attack. Polanski is both Jewish and from Manchester

Vicars, grannies, blind people, those in wheelchairs all being physically carried away by police, one at a time after their rights are read… All for holding a placard.

…instead of the police being used to stop rape, burglary, domestic violence and theft. This farce has to break, surely.

"The Conservatives made a total mess of protest laws and left us with the worst of all worlds – wasting police time arresting people for legitimate peaceful protest, while letting others get away with inciting violence. I fear Labour seem to be following them down the same path"

The move is not a ban on protests but "about restrictions and conditions", Shabana Mahmood tells the BBC.

“Nigel Farage is wrong in principle, his approach is racist, and we oppose it”

“Nigel Farage is right on immigration, but he doesn’t have the skill or experience to deliver his plans”

At some point, the government has to pick *one* of these narratives, instead of veering wildly between the two.

Javier Milei had to beg a bail-out and already needs another. Argentina's economy is in a tailspin. Gov't bonds and peso in freefall. People starving, throwing rocks at him.

Farage last year: "He's amazing. It's Thatcherism on steroids. Cutting and slashing expenditure. That's leadership."

Today, the Pink Protest gathered outside Downing Street, claiming immigrants are a threat to women.

We talked to counter-protesters from Stand Up to Racism, they told us:
“We are terrified that women’s safety is being used to justify hatred.”

Share if you agree.
