I'm now remembering how tiring the pre-series #ashes posturing can get. I'm finding the whole "Eng haven't prepared enough" argument to be utterly draining and pointless. Just want the thing to start now.

The more I hear English pundits claim England are going to win the Ashes because Cummins might not play much, the closer I get to the conclusion that England are going to get thrashed.

Ideally, Maccabi Tel Aviv supporters should be allowed to come to Aston Villa and when they arrive at the stadium they find all their seats are occupied.

WAR IS PEACE
Hegseth: "As history teaches us, the only people who actually deserve peace and those who are willing to wage war to defend it. That's why pacifism is so naive and dangerous."

How did Durham manage that? Makes me think it was their batting that was at fault in Taunton in July, not the Somerset pitch.

‘Water off a duck’s back’: will Israel’s growing isolation make its leadership change course?
For many Israelis, Netanyahu’s warning to get used to growing isolation confirmed what they already suspected of his priorities

Trump is coming to the UK to AVOID the EPSTEIN story. Unfortunately the British public just crowdfunded the WORLD’S BIGGEST PHOTO of Donald with convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
And here is right outside Windsor Castle, where Trump is staying with the King this week.

I spent much of yesterday at the Tommy Robinson march. I couldn’t find a way to write about it that didn’t sound contentious and maybe even condescending – so I didn’t try. www.thenewworld.co.uk/james-ball-t...
Tommy Robinson’s march was a drunken, coked-up mess
He claimed the world was watching, but most of London barely noticed - and much of what was on view was appalling

The irony of a US-based South African talking English people to be afraid of outsiders is too much for me to comprehend right now.

If Trump wanted us to consider him a peacemaker, he could stop Israel from bombing hospitals and killing journalists.
Four journalists were killed by an Israeli strike on a Gaza hospital today, including Mariam Dagga, a freelancer with the @apnews.com. She has a 12-year-old son, who was evacuated from Gaza earlier in the war.
She was a true hero, like all of our Palestinian colleagues in Gaza.
