A thread of inspirational quotes from two of my idols: Kemi Badenoch and Ange Postecoglou
(uh-oh, I may have gotten some mixed up... or have I??)
🧵
This is the clip the BBC did not think worth showing on the 6 o’clock news. Disgraceful.
At the risk of quibbling, if we focus on this season for PL games when both played together for the full 90 mins, I make it an average of 1.43 points which equates to 54 points. On balance I think Ange should stay but let’s not pretend all was rosy when we had a full complement of players
Also this away game was a short walk from Fulham Broadway tube station
Isn’t that the strategy? Basically a protection racket
No specific hotel rec, but a shoutout for Poblenou. 5-10 minute metro ride north of the centre of town (easy with an infant). It's a bit more chilled, cheaper, with some great hotel/ Airbnb options. Close to beach, good restaurants, plus a really nice rambla

Great anecdote here from former FT editor Richard Lambert on the time Manmohan Singh came to the FT to talk with him and Martin Wolf. H/T @andymukherjee70.bsky.social
This is apparently from the New York Times 100 years ago this week. History is full of these forgotten characters but it would be fascinating to know what if anything happened to this Hitler character.

Finally, a sensible choice.
screw you winter, the days get longer from here onwards #solstice
21 off 14, great platform, really sets things up for overs 6-10
Business is business
My take on the green belt? What seemed a good idea at the time has become counter-productive.
Instead of preventing suburban sprawl, it's encouraged exurban sprawl. Commuters now simply leapfrog over the green belt into what should have been deep rural beyond.
This could be interesting. AI has the potential to transform healthcare. Question is, does healthcare want to be transformed? Plenty of traditional players with a lot to lose…
reminder of the time john prescott was given a state banquet on a trip to Beijing and then told them it wasn’t as good as Mr Chu’s in Hull

Silly I know but I’ve penned an ode- or poem if you will- to my new favourite app, bluesky. Be kind in your judgement I beseech you my liege!. lol 🪶
Bentancur gets a seven-game ban for his comments about Son in the summer. This is obviously a blatant case, but you see so much subtle and not so subtle racism towards Son (and east Asian players in general) and it really really has to stop.

Great to see a proper debate re. England progress between Courtney Lawes and Ugo Monye on TNT post #EngvsRSA game. Beats the usual bantz and platitudes we get from sports pundits

NEW: RFK is Trump’s nominee for Health Secretary.
Buckle up.
If I ever refer to Twitter as ‘the other place’ can someone please shoot me in the head. Cheers 👍
Don’t want to get too hopeful but I really believe this app could become the new mastodon
I think it's interesting and instructive that Threads has been overrun by liberal election fraud conspiracies and Bluesky just... hasn't. (h/t @taylorlorenz.bsky.social)
I suspect that's because Threads is 100% algorithmic media, and Bluesky has no algorithm to game.

congrats everyone, Bluesky is now the dominant social network for complaining about Twitter
