wasn't it France v France anyway? the English were defeated by the French almost 400 years earlier.
The story will probably be Chelsea lost, not Sunderland won.
What about the rest of him?
I just saw that you beat Chelsea at their place and though "Andy Dawson must be happy"; first post I saw on here is this one.

That's nice, isn't it?
The best thing for UK politics is that hostile foreign nationals stay out of it.
What's it to do with you?
Will she try to out#Reform Reform plc?
... and yet has their pay or rights increased?
Maybe you should 'hate' her for losing to a convicted felon and moron?

Because until you do, the Democrats will continue to field candidates that lose to convicted morons.
Labour ought to do a whole lot more as their awful coms are going to cost us grief if they don't buck up.
I know that, I love that the right wing vote is split.

Yet what happens when the progressive vote is split further? The Tories or Reform win seats and create more chaos.

Already the Centre/Left have been split five ways and Corbyn wishes to add a sixth. The right have the Tories and Reform.
If Farage gets in power it's not going to be merely unpleasant or uncomfortable, people will die. Like under Trump; he's cut social safety nets, medical care and aid abroad.

I want Labour to be far, far better, yet even as they are they are miles better than the right and more tangible than a wish.
The Lib Dems, the Greens, Plaid Cymru, the SNP have never come close to achieving the seats in Parliament to form a government. Labour do.

Yes, fight the opponent facing you in a constituency, yet overall to win a General Election and keep the hard or far right out of power there's only one party
It is difficult to see who else may oppose Reform in 4 years.

I concede it is slightly weird to refer to Labour as the main opp to Ref. I don't trust these polls, yet the media are running with it. Constantly.
I realise exaggeration is de rigueur on social media, yet Labour are far from Reform on many, many, issues.

I hate that they seek to appease Reform supporters and I quit Labour over that "island of strangers" speech.

I used to write a list of the positive things theyve done. I've gave up now
I'm not a morning person.
There's an alternate universe where he didn't, I sometimes wonder what that would be like.
I think you missed the bit where I wrote I was glad for Plaid Cymru and that Labour ought to change.

Apart from that spot on! I'm very gloomy indeed.
Trump will have access to many, many bunkers in his role as President.
A monetary deposit?

(quote from The Weekenders 1992)
... and yet his fans love him (the odd folk).

I don't think he really wants to be PM, too much work and scrutiny and he knows he's not up to it.

Rather grift from the margins and suck up easier attention.
What's the opposite to buzzing?

12000 ppl voted for a wingnut party and the main opposition to the hard right lost votes.

Glad for Plaid Cymru.

It's yet another wake up call for Labour, yet they seem keen to sleepwalk us back to a hard right govt in 4 years.
I had now idea of this meme yet only the other day, after talking with what I believe was a North American adult male, I questioned their level of debate and asked (humorously) if they were 12.

Have I inadvertently flirted with the zeitgeist?
What has happiness to do with it?

Very few are happy anyway; especially those on the Right who usually love this stuff.
