Abyssinian empire, Carthage, Zulus, Persians, Mongols, Aztecs, Incans etc. etc.

There's a long list of 'non-white' empires... they didn't ask nicely for what they took.

Human nature to covet & take. Then justify it by saying 'its okay cos they're not like us'.

Patrick Gathara is a racist arse.

Hypothetically, what sort of injury would keep Antoine Dupont out for a week or two, but have him back fully firing for the Ireland match on 8th March?

Hammy tweak late on...? 🤞

Same with Next, Tesco, Amazon, RFU.

Executives lay off minimum wage staff, claim they had no choice, and pay themselves record bonuses.

Try suggesting something's not quite right with that... you're a Communist.

Nice to hear Simon Roberts making tough choices.

- 35 bridges across the Thames in West (rich) London.
- 0 bridges across in East (poor) London.
- The crossings in West (rich) London are all free.
- The river tunnels in East (poor) London all require toll payments.

Welcome to the Plutocracy.

Welcome to a plutocracy.

If it makes you feel better...
- 35 bridges across the Thames in West (rich) London.
- 0 bridges across in East (poor) London.
- The crossings in West (rich) London are all free.
- The river tunnels in East (poor) London all require toll payments.

And once you've entertained me with 50 seconds of your chocolatey advert...

Use the last 10 seconds to throw up a graphic showing how much you ACTUALLY support Alzheimer's Research

£200K in 2024, FYI (roughly 1.3% of profits (est.)

Best Heavyweight of C21st (sorry Lennox) and an international icon for #Ukraine - genuine legend in his time.

...Buuuuut... Naoya Inoue is the best pound-for-pound boxer on the planet. Has been since he knocked out Donaire in 2022.

Could be worse though... 😉

Scotland squad looking strong too!

But one of these years, Scotland are going to have to follow through and deliver...

...not just get geed up to beat England and then capitulate on the rest

Same story with Tesco, Amazon, Next etc. in the UK.

Government tries to raise taxes off wealthy corporations.

Corporations lay off minimum wage staff, claim they had no choice, and pay their Executives record bonuses.

Try suggesting something's not quite right with that... you're a Communist.

Was about to sign this - in principle, agree 100%. Quick check first...

What's the position on invasive species that have been accidentally introduced?

What's the position on species that have proliferated unnaturally (due to human activity) and so threaten the wider ecosystem?

Ugh, fella, don't even start 😁

From on-field performance to RFU governance, England Rugby seems unable to get the most out of its many assets.

That said, muscle a close away win at a (hypothetical) caught-cold Ireland... followed by 3 home games... 🤞

Been thinking for years that it's ripe for a Netflix series.

It's got everything. Period drama, low & high society, revenge, sex, money, violence, piracy, politics, business, history

Recast Jim Caviezel, Guy Pearce & Henry Cavill from the 2002 version but in alternate roles.

I'd binge that shit

Corporate Executives - Their only principle, is their own profit.
#corporategreed #RFU #EnglandRugby

Ffing disgrace.

Executives all the same. Their only principle is their own profit.

See Amazon, Next, BP etc. who take home record, multi-million pay packets and then claim a tax rise means they need to lay off minimum-wage staff.

Suggest there's something wrong with that, and you're a communist.
