What is a leading Brexiteer doing living in a chateau in France?

The origins of soccer do go back a long way though not as far as the middle ages. It was definitely kicking a 'ball' – it wasn't until the mid-C19 when William Webb-Ellis picked up the ball and ran with it while at Rugby School that the game divided. Presumably US football is related to rugby?

Is it? (I have absolutely no idea though it does look roughly that).

Train operating is coming under government control but the trains themselves are still owned by the (mostly foreign owned) RoSCos. Freight operations are still privately owned. maintenance is still under private control. Rail 'nationalisation' is smoke and mirrors.

This so-called Labour government have done a lot of unbelievable things – all of them bad.
