Bournemouth fans having a great time at Old Trafford this afternoon, 2-0 up at half time.
“You’re going down with the City…” they are chanting to United fans… 😭

I joined in 1977 when we had over 150 front line ships. We've no longer got a serious Navy and havent had one for years thanks to @Conservatives and @UKLabour. Embarrassing.
Thirty-three Royal Navy warships have been taken out of operational service since 2010, of which eight have been sold, fifteen recycled and ten are still waiting to be disposed of. Click image for more.

Obviously it's made up but this wouldn't be enough. And all clubs should appeal it if it was that it wouldn't be strong enough.
🚨 BREAKING: Manchester City have LOST their appeal, and the Premier League has AGREED to a staggering 99-POINT DEDUCTION alongside a potential 9-YEAR TRANSFER BAN! 🤯
This will reportedly come into effect at the end of the season, sending Man City crashing into RELEGATION.
Over 36 teams, including Manchester United, Liverpool, Bournemouth, Chelsea and those in the Championship, have already started legal proceedings against the sham club.

🧵Ukraine just won its biggest offensive of the year by keeping it a secret from its own army.
Commander Biletskyi banned his officers from logging their advance on their battlefield app because it leaked. 1/🧵

The scandal gets bigger.
🚨Taxpayer-funded civil servants helped shape election news at ITV and Channel 4
Office for National Statistics officials were embedded inside ITV News and Channel 4 News during multiple general elections, verifying claims, dissecting party manifestos, preparing briefings and even helping organise interviews. The arrangement ran across campaigns from 2015 to 2024. In one case a secondee travelled for an immigration story seeking views on how cutting migration might hurt local businesses.
Broadcasters insist editorial control stayed with their own journalists and that the civil servants merely advised on statistics under impartiality rules. Critics argue the public paid for Whitehall staff to assist commercial newsrooms at the most sensitive political moments. An independent review of who approved the placements, what they cost and whether the practice continues is overdue.

In 1987, at Loughgall, the SAS stopped eight murderous IRA killers.
The actions of the SAS that day no doubt saved innocent lives. Yet now, decades after the event, our brave veterans face relentless legal persecution.
Here's what really happened on that day in 1987👇🏻

Tank warfare is impossible without recovery vehicles! These cuts are insane!
Britain cannot afford to have its armoured spear blunted by Whitehall bean-counters!

Making jokes about different nationalities was pretty normal back in the 1960s and 70s. Nothing malicious was intended. They were just jokes. Like Irish jokes.
Just like in the 1400s and 1500s people got married at very young ages.
Did you know Henry VIII's grandmother gave birth to her first born when she was just 13?
You may be horrified now. But it was normal back then.
You can't apply today's standards to something that was run of the mill years ago. History can't be changed because you don't agree with how it was. Back then.

Get used to it as the United States seems to be no longer willing to support a free democratic nation like Ukraine who is fighting against a fascist war criminal land stealing thug called Putin who is murdering innocent civilians and destroying their homes.

@usanewshq @USATODAY @washingtonpost @cnnbrk So fascist Putin has ordered his pet puppet Trump to get rid of President Zelenskyy a real leader who is leading his country against a warmongering land stealing evil Czar Putin? Sad day for the United States. I feel sorry for Americans.
