“I have a young daughter. She’s not yet two, but if some day in the future, she is learning about this and knows that I was at the state department and she asked me [about it] – I want to be able to tell her that I did what I could.”
Ever feel that you have no choice? Starmer will be different though, right!
Newly-appointed Conservative Deputy Chairman Jonathan Gullis goes on the attack against Labour for "blocking" the Rwanda bill... before quickly being reminded that he didn't vote for it either pic.twitter.com/TfsOIih0CG
A northern away jaunt, a rarity for me these days. Driving up from London via Nottingham to collect A.N. Other...made possible by the 5.30. Nice to tick off another ground and to enjoy the delights of Manchester after (staying over).
Apparently it was banned from being shown, an ad for the six nations, I actually think it's quite humourous and amusing and probably shows a side of the UK that most of the rest of the world can't get it's head around.
We're like warring siblings until somebody picks a fight with one of us, then we're a tight family unit.
Player of the Year Voting Gets Under Way21st Mar 2024 09:15 Voting for the Official ITFC Supporters Club’s men’s Player of Year award is now under way, while voting for the women’s gong starts on Saturday ahead of their game at Portman Road against Chatham Town.20
With all the chat about the FFP rules and how they keep the bottom clubs from competing, wouldn't it make sense to give promoted clubs a one-off, free year (maybe limited to once every five years or something, to stop yo-yo clubs doing it every single time?)
So when you get promoted, your first year isn't counted towards FFP. There should be regulations with that, of course - namely, that the money spent must be covered in its entirety by the owners and not placed as a lasting debt on the club (to stop bad owners running a club into the ground by spending big)...
Also, if it was a rule that EVERY single contract in the Prem - even those of KDB, Grealish etc - have to have a relegation clause in them - then it would go some way to solving the problem of clubs being loaded with big contracts on relegation.
Is that too simple? Probably, I don't lay claim to being much of an economics buff...
...drew 0-0 last night, at 'home' against Dartford in Nat League South.
Their remaining fixtures: Mar 29... Slough... home Apr 1... Chippenham... away Apr 4... Hemel Hempstead... home Apr 6... Aveley... home Apr 9... Torquay... home Apr 11... Yeovil... home Apr 13... Maidstone... home Apr 16... Dover... home Apr 18... Weymouth... home Apr 20... Dartford... away. The final game of the season. There'll be a few tired legs.
You might think, 'Well at least most of the games are at home...' But they are playing their 'home' games 200 miles from Truro at Gloucester; far enough away that their hosts play in the Nat League North.
Maybe they could have a word with Torquay and travel to their Devon/Cornwall 'derby' match in the same coach and, at least, save a bit on the diesel.
