A good start if it comes off.

I.... I was just taking the piss out of his accent.....

I think the immigration plan is a pretty clear indication of it. He also reneged on his Green commitments and has turned against trans people. I appreciate we all have different views on that here but I think we could all agree that support for LGBTQ is a left wing issue. It's been traded in purely to court the right. Also cutting disability benefits. Oh and while it's not a left/right issue as such, the EU. Definitely more people on the left favour that than the right. It's just too much man, it really is. He does not give a fuck about my vote, he just assumes he's got it.

School meals is a good idea I think as it is linked to better attainment and we don't want to stigmatise kids. But anyway, in this country we tend to venerate pensioners and treat kids like shite, even though we have a demographic population crash which indirectly impacts on immigration. A priority should be to scrap the 2 kid cap, fuck WFA

Is that true? Is it hyperbolic? Cos that would be 10 trillion quid in flight. And why is Paul Daniels* still here. * Even if he is six foot under.

Surely most of them were their fans heading for the exit gates early doors?

to be fair, that is the previous season when both Forest and Everton were sanctioned. Presume Villa escaped on account of their CL qualification. Fulham are looking precarious as well.

Is he actually 'moving further right'? The winter fuel payment wasn't too bad a decision as it is means tested. It is like the free school meals for all children. I have benefited from free school meals for two of my kids and I really did not need it. My wife and I both have 'middle class' jobs. It was a complete waste of tax money. I also dont think we will 'need' a winter fuel allowance. We are nowhere near what I would class as 'well off', but definitely comfortable and no financial worries. I would like them to tax the banks and the very rich but there must be a reason why they don't or cannot as there are so few of them that it cannot be down to votes.

Most of Spurs sprints were towards their own goal from the halfway line.

Tell you what. Forest don't have much wiggle room!

Financial services' tax receipts make 12% of total tax revenue in the UK so they're already a major source of income for the government. It's an increasingly competitive world and if you hammer banks with taxes they'll simply move elsewhere and with them goes the exisiting tax base. London is already suffering from record low numbers of IPOs and putting extra taxes on the industry is only going to have a negative effect on the tax take. It's like Labour's plan to end non-dom status that would cure everything. They announced it and suddenly 10,000 millionaires left the country. Unfortunately there isn't a simple answer to all our ills.

They were hoping for a way to lay off 25% of the workforce and replace them with AI

From Kieran Maguire. Villa are fucked.

Or Israel. Which is really code for 'don't let anyone left wing into the country'

My issue with the winter fuel payments was the majority of 'noise' I was hearing was from Tory-voting cunts of pensionable age who were busy dipping into their inordinate wealth buying their groceries from Waitrose and spending vast amounts of their time sitting in expensive coffee shops. These arseholes absolutely don't need it. My stepmother was one of them and she's learned the hard way not to bring that discussion to my doorstep.

If we keep voting for him as he moves further right, he never has to fight for our votes/appeal to us. We are simply taken for granted because we're living in fear of the 'something worse'.

He’d have literally fuck all to lose. Tax the merchant banks on every transaction they make and say it’s to fund the NHS instead of giving the perception (and ammunition to your opposition) that you’re targeting pensioners. It would be the right wing press Starmer would’ve had to have dealt with but not really anyone else (Badenoch is an irrelevance) he may have also been able to snare Farage on his CoL past..the entire institution and concept of the CoL is bent as fuck, expose that like the Covid PPE procurement scandal and you look like you're on the side of punters and not giving your implicit consent to world wide white collar crime. Vested interests would have gone through the roof exposing themselves further.

Eddie Howe making more demands, I’m sure

Quit before he was fired, the duck-lipped useless cunt.

What surprises me about the stat is that Forest are so low down on the sprints. Their whole counter-attacking ethos was based on Hudson-Odoi, Gibbs-White and predominately, Elanga sprinting like fuck. You're right to call out that Leicester did it with better players but there seems to be a general view (especially from the Sky Sports lot) that low possession is a bad thing. Surely winning games where your players aren't having to put in the miles / sprint continuously is a good thing? Certainly reduces the injury risk.
