Kigali is safer than London
at 09:39 22 Apr 2024

Is the latest Tory bile ahead of the London Mayoral election and the latest vote on the Rwanda bill

"It is a safe country and indeed, if you look at the statistics, Kigali is arguably safer than London. So I have no doubt at all about the safety of Rwanda and the efficacy of this scheme" - Andrew Mitchell this morning.

No misuse of party funds
at 16:31 21 Apr 2024

So paying for blackmail and hiding it for months is ok.

Or maybe its what Tories expect party funds to be spent on?

NEW: Former Tory MP Mark Menzies confirms that he will not be standing again at the general election.

CCHQ says it cannot conclude that there had been a misuse of Tory party funds.

With Sunak the most unpopular PM of all time too

New Ipsos poll

Con 19%
Reform 13%
LD 9%
Green 9%

Worse Tory result in the history of Ipsos polling going back to 1978.

Sunak rating now as low as Major and Corbyn at their lowest points.

A new one for the Tories - paying off 'captors' with campaign funds
at 09:15 18 Apr 2024

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2024/apr/17/tory-mp-loses-whip-after-claims

According to the Times, Menzies phoned his former campaign manager, now a party volunteer, at 3.15am one night in December saying he was locked in a flat by “some bad people” and needed £5,000 as a matter of “life and death”.

Hours later Menzies’ campaign manager paid him the sum, which had risen to £6,500, from her personal savings. She was reimbursed from campaign donations, the paper said.

Guillem Balague continues his blinded defence of Maresca at Leicester
at 09:02 16 Apr 2024

Think that’s three times in about 3 days he’s leapt to his defence against fan pressure

This is a little video for those that are asking for the head of Maresca

Genuine question... considering a coach prepares the team to take the ball from one end to another, what else can a coach do here? #LCFC 👀👇 https://t.co/PO0WhdAz0a

I can see the 0.1% is demanding an explanation in two sentences (better one) and to take action now!

How about: #LCFC are creating a big amount of chances but, unlike the first half of the season, they are not converting them

So, if chances are created (lots of quality ones),…
— Guillem Balague (@GuillemBalague) April 13, 2024

What I see from #LCFC: a team tired, chances missed, possession that needs more penetration, a new manager looking for solutions, most fans knowing they are needed more than in any part of the season. It is easy to be a fan when the team wins, what do you do when they are not in… pic.twitter.com/TXWw6ZJatt

Tottenham losing £86m last season

With debts of over £850m.

This golden land of the Premier League can quickly turn sour for what was perceived to be a well run club.

https://www.theguardian.com/football/2024/apr/03/tottenham-talks-investors-says-

Brighton made a profit as the post on here pointed out last night, but lose money without player sales of nearly £750k a week.

Our investors are going to need very deep pockets or a throughput of young players with phenomenal sell-on value.
