Why are Maccabi Tel Aviv an Israeli club allowed to play in the European Champions League?

Tasnima from @elsclegal explains on our recent podcast how this is another clear example of how Israel operates as a settler colony.

I have been told by queer friends that my "twink to bear glow-up" is complete.

New training gear has arrived. The gaffer’s is arguably missing an A and another T tho

Having had Tasnima on the podcast recently we're really big fans, and this is well worth a read.

My guy

The full interview with Mark Bonnick- who was sacked by Arsenal for pro-Palestine tweets-is now on our new YouTube channel.

When Saints were on that mad unbeaten run he said “I’m here until someone decides ‘this guy is too mental to manage this football club any more’”, and that’s more or less what happened (altho he was set up to fail, bless him).

Yeah there’s a certain subtlety to it in that Martin is fucking mad but sort of knows it, whereas all the people he’s having to deal with are even madder, and completely deluded.

Russell Martin is a left-leaning vegan hippy, who has somehow managed to end up managing Rangers, a Scottish club with a strong British nationalist, unionist current in its fanbase. They scored a late winner today and instead of celebrating their fans chanted "MARTIN, GET TAE FUCK".

The DUP are gonna put a bomb under Russell’s Prius tonight

Even back in the 70s and 80s when I could be hassled by the police for walking while trans, no one ever tried to stop me pissing in the Ladies or tried to make me change into my swimsuit among men.

There is no dignity or respect involved in taking away rights I have exercised freely for forty years

Happy birthday to me. Doing alright for 46.

Free Palestine.

Arsenal Fans TV gone woke

The reintroduction of the Hillsborough Law to Parliament was a victory for campaigners against those who benefit from the state’s lack of accountability. But the fight is not over. newsocialist.org.uk/transmission...

The families who’ve campaigned for justice are some of the most inspiring people I know of, so I’m really pleased that we were able to publish this. Also big shout out to @IanByrneMP for giving me so much of his time. If only all MPs were like him.
