In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Jamie (@Vault Dweller) review both the Everton and Bodø/Glimt victories at Old Trafford. Listen to the guys discuss 2 wins and 7 goals in the last week, analyse of the Amorim formation, focus on Amad and how he is playing, and also take a look at Hojlund, Rashford & Zirkzee – who starts v Arsenal?
It's not a competition, but we have more pedestrians.
There's no need for this rivalry at all, let's get together and kick feck out of the cyclists.
In David Lammy's defence; while he certainly is a nasty, mendacious cnut, he is also a very, very, extremely thick cnut too. It might be unfair to automatically assume cognisance from this very obviously deficient dolt.
I'm pedestrian until I open my car door.
They have always marked the major religious celebrations, under both Tory and Labour governments. Hinduism is the third largest religious group in the UK, and we are an officially religious state, unlike the US or France.
This piece of slime should be brought with his friend Netanyahu to the Hague. Disgusting human being.
I'll start lobbying for them to celebrate greek easter then too.
They send out best wishes and social media messages. But I doubt they'll complain if you ask them for a knees up too.
Why is this even a story?
fecking scumbag hates British history.
The Telegraph.
That's all.
They have been complaining that Labour have ruined the country in a few months. Ignoring the last 14 years.
If Starmer cured cancer they would complain about him impacting the income of private oncologists.
Can't win, he gets slagged for taking freebies and slagged for not taking them, probably doesn't even play golf!
Posted this in the Hypernormalstation thread a few weeks back
Lammy is a soulless individual who will believe in anything to further his own career.
I went to a talk yesterday host by Yanis Varoufakis and Slavoj Zizek. Good commie stuff but also Varoufakis deeply(and correctly)hates the current labour government.
'London-style' bus services promised nationwide with £1bn boost
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c86qy500545o
Almost £1bn in funding will go to delivering London-style buses nationwide as part of a massive Budget boost, the government has promised.
The Department for Transport (DfT) has given more details on its plans for 2025 after announcing the funding last month.
It has promised to deliver what it calls "London-style" services to every corner of the country, and said funding would be allocated based on levels of deprivation and population, instead of making areas compete for investment as it has in previous years.
The DfT says Leicester, the Isle of Wight, Torbay, Southend, Cambridgeshire and Peterborough are set to receive "unprecedented" levels of funding.
In urban areas, some of the biggest allocations are being given to combined authorities representing South Yorkshire and the Liverpool City Region.
In total, there will be £712m for local authorities to improve services, alongside a further £243m for bus operators.
About 3.4 million people in England travel regularly by bus, making it the most commonly used mode of public transport.
Local authorities in all English regions will be able to introduce new bus routes, make services more frequent and protect crucial routes, the DfT says.
It added the money will allow more urban areas to maintain high levels of service. Meanwhile, rural communities and small towns will be able to offer more services.
Transport Secretary Louise Haigh told the BBC's Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg programme the funding would "vastly improve" the reliability and frequency of services, particularly in rural areas.
Well, if those two titans think so, then Labour MUST be evil...
These Southport attacks have been weaponised by the far right, it's sickening.
I don't know much about lammy generally but I would say those two tweets are the difference between not being in government and being in it. If anything the first was the silly one to post. Having a decent relationship with America is sadly quite important.
Oh look, your ignorance is showing again.
I know who they are. I just think they are massively overrated - Varoufakis as politician and as for Zizek, well I have an aversion to the school of philosophy he represents. But they are very good at telling lefties what they want to hear, I will grant you that.

They're thought leaders, no? Their job is to advance left wing thinking by doing research, writing books and doing media appearances. "Telling lefties what to do" is a statement so lacking in understanding of their roles that one might think you were being intentionally dishonest.
Why the feck is this idiot going round the world chatting shite?
The shortest serving PM, someone that was compared to a lettuce, someone that was humiliated out of their seat and almost didn't make a concession speech. Somehow this absolute disgrace can get speaking gigs outside of the GBNews wankfest.
Truss turning up to speak to children in school about "politics" would be insulting their intelligence. It's absolutely mind boggling she feels confident enough to leave the house without dying of horrific embarassment.
She's got to pay her mortgage somehow, the interest payments went up unexpectedly.
I said, "what they want to hear" (in case anyone thinks you are the one being intentionally dishonest).
Wins today's internet for me.
Varoufakis was an awful politician and despised by every Greek I know.
It was ever thus. When I was on the dole for a bit after uni I had to do a shite week long course on CVs and job applications etc or lose the benefit. Hopefully now they teach something more useful.
Made a right eejit of myself there, whoops. Nevertheless, talking about left wing policy and ideas is literally their job, it's unsurprising that people who are left wing agree with left wing thoughts.
Not really what is being spoken about but what do you think made him an awful politician?
Starmer sucking up to Xi. Brilliant, ffs.
Is he sucking up or is he just developing relationships with international leaders as PMs should? China is a massive economy and any trade etc would contribute to the UK economy.
Laura 'The Idiot' Trott being put in her place.
It's the same thing. China are not a reliable partner, never will be a reliable partner barring miraculous systemic regime change, and its state education system still bangs on about grievances against UK from 170 to 140 years ago that need to be "avenged". Imagine British school textbooks on Germany still needing to "pay" for what it did in the World Wars, or the Americans still being bitter about 1812. It's just hyper-nationalism, boogeymanism and ultimately results in a completely unreliable international partner. (Which has been proven time and time again.)
Trying to woo them is like trying to woo a lion to be a reliable domestic pet.
There are many countries and leaders you wouldn’t want anything to do with however being the leader of a nations means you have to develop relationships with such individuals. China being a massive nation and economy means they can’t be ignored unfortunately.
Here’s hoping for the same prison sentences as the Just Stop Oil protesters.
Don’t want accusations of a two-tier system of justice now!
When the miners tried to stop the govt from ending their way of life they rode them down with horses.
