It's called having principles, not just being reactive, angry, and paranoid about losing votes. Say what you believe in. If it's nothing, shut the feck up. Set out your stall and hope others agree with your views. Stand up and be counted.

I can only see one UK politician like this currently ...

‘Mamdani’s New York win shows there isn’t an ounce of charisma in British politics’ | The News Agents

Zohran Mamdani’s decisive victory in the New York mayoral election appears to have breathed life into the Democrats – but can British politicians learn anything from his win?

Pretty much an insult to repeatedly refer to Kaur as ‘he’ and ‘him’ as this article does 🙄

Are England trying to lull the Aussies into a false sense of security or have they completely forgotten it’s an ODI and not a T20?

I think we will eventually get better with the new 50 comp for women which gives them a platform to compete and improve but we definitely can’t continue with the current crop who’s failures are getting a tad tedious.

Sodham Hall Jackie 🐝 @jackiecarroll.bsky.social · 8d

Perrin - opener
Gibson - no
Arlott - no
Dean - why? 🤷‍♀️

Sodham Hall Jackie 🐝 @jackiecarroll.bsky.social · 8d

I would love to see Emma Lamb and Davina Perrin as our new opening pair. Get them in and build a new team round them. Ditch the old team except for Ecclestone and Bell.

Compare and contrast.
Absentee MP -v- his constituency.
Greedy grifting spiv -v- most deprived English neighbourhood.
He really couldn’t give a shit.
He feeds off the inequality and anger to line his own pockets. He doesn’t want solutions because the problems are his income stream.
(iPaper & BBC)

Jaywick named most deprived area - again

A seaside neighbourhood in Essex, part of the parliamentary constituency represented by Reform UK leader Nigel Farage, has once again been named the most deprived in England.
The latest official data showed that an area of the coastal village of Jaywick, close to the town of Clac-ton-on-Sea in the local authority of Tendring, has been classed the most deprived neighbourhood for the fourth time.
Areas of Blackpool again make up most of the rest of the top 10, along with new appearances for neighbour-hoods in Hastings and Rotherham.

Yesterday's data, published by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG), presented relative levels of deprivation in areas or neighbourhoods of England in 2025.
The data highlighted "the scale of the challenge" but does not "reflect the progress made since 2019 or the strength of the people who call Jay-wick Sands home"
, the Tendring
District Council website said.
MHCLG said Middlesbrough, Birmingham, Hartlepool, Kingston upon Hull and Manchester had the highest proportions of neighbour-hoods among the most deprived in England.

Farage earns more than £1m a year for non-MP work

Nigel Farage has revealed he is earning well over a £1m a year from work he does outside parliament, in addition to his job as an MP.
It is thought his outside income is significantly higher than that of any other member of parliament.

Catches win matches…

Sodham Hall Jackie 🐝 @jackiecarroll.bsky.social · 9d

That was an amazing game and they deserved it. Sad for the Aussies but sooner or later other teams would inevitably have to up their game to compete.

Well done India 👏👏👏

I can honestly say that if India win this then they’ll sure deserve it. You don’t often see Aussie bowlers getting tonked all over.

Yeah. I had a friend who was openly racist and I asked him “what makes you so hateful towards people of colour?”

His reply started “well, my dad says”

“Ah” I replied “you don’t have a brain of your own?”

Yes, it’s learned behaviour.

Sodham Hall Jackie 🐝 @jackiecarroll.bsky.social · 11d

I don’t know if I could live my life so full of hate like these people do. I’m more than happy with my conscience telling me I need to be good and kind - it filters down to my grandchildren who are decent beyond measure. It’s so much easier to love than it is to hate.

www.espncricinfo.com/story/womens.... It's rather sad - in the context of sport - that she didn't get to play Test cricket at all for some unknown reasons. If she were a bloke, she'd've played 150 Tests and been a household name. A legend.

The truth is, cricket owes Sophie Devine a lot

One of the most distinguished players in all of ODI cricket has bid farewell

I will miss her - NZ have always been my second team and Sophie has been a constant and very much a favourite in our household. We wish her well and hope to still see her involved in cricket somewhere.

Sarah Pochin is a racist.
Reform is a racist party.
Her ‘apology’ makes no difference to that.
Trying to claim your words really meant something else is not an apology.
It’s a lie about who you are and what you think.
So, she’s a racist.
And, for all our sakes, that MUST be a shameful thing to be.

"It drives me mad when I see adverts full of black people, full of Asian people, full of anything other than white"

She was immense today - such a talent and marvellous to watch.
