Piers is actually right here though, someone came in the pub the other day and said she’d been watching her son play rugby that morning. I said oh did he win, she said they don’t even keep score. I mean what? 🤣🤣

Remember when councils just emptied the bins and filled potholes?
Not Birmingham. Year-long bin strike, rubbish piling up, roads in ruins, and a bankrupt council...yet they’re busy talking about Israel and Gaza.
Priorities.

Last night, I was criticised for saying that Birmingham City Council was putting Gaza before Birmingham.
I wonder what could have possibly led me to that conclusion.

Birmingham is beginning to look like the UK's first official caliphate
What a waste of school resources, time and effort.
Proud to announce that students in England will be able to study Ukrainian at GCSE.
It’s a chance for pupils to explore Ukraine’s rich culture and history and, for the Ukrainian community to remain connected to their heritage.
This is another step in our enduring support for Ukraine as part of the 100 Year Partnership 🇺🇦🇬🇧

y’all blaming the goal keeper like his intention was to keel him, he’s probably somewhere regretting why he came out as well for the tackle.
He will live with regret for the rest of his life.
Terrible news from Spain: Tenerife player Jesus de Miguel has sadly passed away.

A devastating loss for Tenerife and whole football world.
Prayers and thoughtd go out to his family, friends, teammates, and everyone at CD Tenerife during this difficult time.

Here is Jesús Owono’s reaction after his tackle on Jesús de Miguel:
- He was heading straight down the tunnel because he knew it was a red-card offence, which he was shown on the spot.
- His teammate even went over to greet him for the tackle, not realizing how serious the situation was.
- He rushed back immediately when he realized the severity of the situation.
It was a reckless tackle, and the consequences are heartbreaking. But we must remember that none of these players goes onto the pitch intending to take the life of a fellow player.

As he should. Horrible foul yes, red card yes, and yes a suspension is well in bounds
But there was absolutely no ill intent there. He’s looking at the ball, making a play on the ball.
If you want to see another life ruined because of a freak accident, I know what you are
🚨 𝗡𝗘𝗪: FC Andorra goalkeeper Jesús Owono is expected to avoid criminal charges following the on-pitch collision that led to the tragic death of Tenerife striker Jesús de Miguel.
The goalkeeper was sent off after his knee struck De Miguel in the chest while attempting to clear the ball.
Owono has maintained that there was no intention to cause harm and is understood to be deeply affected by the incident.
Footage has also emerged showing the goalkeeper confronting supporters who were chanting “murderer” at him as he left the pitch.
According to Spanish media, Owono could instead face a sporting suspension of between 8 and 12 matches.
He has also closed his Instagram account following widespread abuse and intends to contact De Miguel’s family privately.

Italy owes us reparations for the Romans.
Scandinavia owes us reparations for the Vikings.
France owes us reparations for 1066.
Morocco owes us reparations for the Barbary pirates.
Are we doing this right?
The community note on this.
This Islamophobia Awareness Month, we must shine a light on the abhorrent hatred and discrimination Muslims continue to face.
In the last year alone, religious hate crimes targeting Muslims rose by 15% in England and Wales.
This is utterly unacceptable. London will always stand against hatred, prejudice and discrimination.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
UK security agencies still assess Islamist extremism as the largest terrorism threat. MI5's Islamist-related caseload remains roughly 75% of its counter-terrorism work, according to recent threat assessments.

Islamophobia doesn’t exist, Mr Khan. It’s a word that’s been made up to control and silence the masses.
