“Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge: it is those who know little, not those who know much, who so positively assert that this or that problem will never be solved by science.” (Charles Darwin)
At last the BBC push back against the household budget theory of public finances. High time, I have been pushing back against this for almost 15 years now.
Isn't it refreshing when someone actually does nuance and detail?

What happened to Jota in the summer continues to have an impact on #LFC, whether some people want to admit it or not. It doesn't mean Slot's blameless for our current issues, but it's important to mention it in any discussions. Read my latest here: www.andcouldheplay.com/is-slots-tim...

This #LFC team is mentally weak. Can’t cope with any adversity at all. There’s a very clear, Jota-shaped reason why that’s the case & I think far too many people are acting as if that just isn’t a thing. I honestly have no idea how they get passed it, but I’m not sure a new manager is all it takes.

That was a goal. Never handball. At least something goes our way. We are so easy to score against. #lfc

Important: The anti-vaxx movement is closely connected to white supremacy. They blame the spread of measles on immigrants, and they frequently target immigrant communities with anti-vaxx disinformation.

We know referees in other countries have been bribed, so I find the English exceptionalism at any mention that ours might be dodgy quite curious. It takes nothing away from #LFC's poor performance; you can't only show up against Real Madrid. Read more: www.andcouldheplay.com/one-step-for...

The party who claim to be patriots literally had a Reform leadership member caught red handed taking bribes from Russia.

This article details the speeches Nathan Gill gave that he was paid to give.

How are Reform getting away with this?

With the dust settled, some thoughts on yesterday's #LFC game. Warning: probably nothing you want to hear.

Always a good idea when you have already lost the league, and have zero chance of winning the Championship League, to exit the Cup with a whimper… #LFC

The #LFC team is too good to keep on losing forever, but the manager would do well to ask his players to try something different to stop the rot. We need to be more solid defensively first & foremost. Read my latest piece here: www.andcouldheplay.com/things-are-u...

Happy 10th birthday to the most resonant political tweet of all time.

One day, people will get wise to right-wing populism, but seemingly not yet.

My only hesitation on Jones is that he seems to dwell on the ball a bit too long. He gets caught out doing that quite often, last night he did it in a very dangerous position and got dispossessed in a very dangerous area.
This season’s Curtis has been so good consistently I’ll continue my shout to have him start over Macca. I like him & Szobo with Wirtz in the midfield.
