"Democratic backsliding" is the process through which modern authoritarianism happens.

Controversial thought, which I know I might get pelters for:

I COMPLETELY understand why it happens & I think it’s truly lovely & definitely coming from the right place, but I’m not sure singing Jota’s song 20 minutes into every game is helping. A stark reminder to the players of what happened.

Poor decisions from Slot at moment Robbo should have kept place at L.B. Why drop Ekitike for Issac too, when Ekitike bang in form ! and Issac no pre - Season. Both should have been eased into team on 70 Mins. Is Salah undroppable too ? Chiesa is fit bang in form, so why not starting.

Pritzker: Throughout history we've learned that tyranny doesn't arrive with dramatic proclamations. Most times it comes quietly wrapped in the language of law and order, with fingers pointed at someone who doesn't look like you, promising safety while demanding that we sacrifice our neighbors.

Short version:

Lowe-life doesn't like paying taxes (but is happy to receive taxpayers' cash).

And he dreams of a deregulated nation, where employers are free to exploit worker and where human rights have been stripped away.

That GB 'News' graphic looks like b*ll*ocks, if that's the correct economics term.

They ignore the exit fee paid to the EU, ignore the EU rebate we used to get and ignore the lost tax revenue to the Treasury due to Brexit.

Factor all that in and Remaining would mean we were £83bn better off.

Reform candidate visibly squirms as he's confronted by a local family in Caerphilly.
👏 "We've lived here all our lives. And I have never felt so unwelcome in my own hometown as I do since your party came into Caerphilly."

"With all the rhetoric that you bring in, I have to say to my sons, please don't go there. Please don't do this."

"I blame you for that."

Looks like JK Rowling and Sex Matters have overplayed their hand perhaps?
