Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

Doesn't seem like the best day for Starmer to reheat "you lefties [on the backbenches/in the Labour membership/in the Labour electorate] just don't get it" Blue Labour type arguments?
Keir Starmer attacks the racism of Reform and Matt Goodwin but then adds that "Britain has also been let down by a mindset on the left of politics that is too slow to defend core British values"

Sven Goran Eriksson would be 78 today.
He dreamed of managing Liverpool FC for years and he became a Reds boss for the charity game between LFC Legends and Ajax AFC Legends in March 2024.

May he rest in peace.

This is really cringey listening BUT the prime minister actually allowing journalists from lots of different media outlets into the room and trying to answer their very hostile questions does at least show we’re not yet the United States.

Stade Reims record departures.

Around 240M€ generated from player sales over the past four years.

Sadly, they were relegated during that period, but there’s no doubt they know how to develop talent.

On what basis is Keir Starmer claiming that you ‘often’ see antisemitic banners at the marches for Palestine, right now? My understanding is that there were a few, but journalists had to work quite hard to find them….
