    [Other Sport] Sir Mo Farah

    Well, I guess the public would like control of who comes in and who stays……. https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-manchester-news/rochdale-grooming-gang-member-says-24319315 Maybe some foreign criminals are more equal than others?

    Tariq has chosen “the easier one”………..jeez, thanks for the input Ron.

    [Albion] Tariq Lamptey

    You can check the Black Star Twitter feeds then. This move by Tariq and others is not being universally celebrated on the tweets. Sure there is a constituency that want the best players, however others see it differently especially given the squad that played in AFCON and WC qualifications is...

    [Albion] Tariq Lamptey

    I’m a classic liberal, people are entitled to believe that they are animal, mineral or vegetable as far as I am concerned, so long as they aren’t causing any broader harm. Equally, and back on topic it’s not unreasonable for Tariq to feel more loyalty to his Ghanaian roots, despite being born...

    [Albion] Tariq Lamptey

    0/10. If you wasn’t such an imperialist in your outlook you would educate yourself to how other parts of the world work. The saying “monkey dey work, baboon dey chop” is a well understood expression in west Africa, and represents how the powerful benefit from the powerless. A sentiment...

    [Albion] Tariq Lamptey

    I think it’s up to Tariq to define his identity and let’s be frank his actions speak louder than words. He has had the privilege to play at England youth level and due to his heritage he retained the same privilege with Ghana. Given this change I suspect to the Ghanaian public he will be...

    Is that right? I’m sure both went through England youth set up though…….the privilege of choice.

    [Albion] Tariq Lamptey

    Plenty of British born players have committed themselves to play international for countries from their heritage, if they have that privilege. Are you sure it’s simply because he wants to play in a WC? Didn’t Sir Bobby Z turn down the opportunity to play in a WC for Trinidad? As the offspring...

    [Music] Morrissey's Bonfire Of Teenagers

    If the vigils held in the aftermath were to forgive the bomber then Morrissey is bang on frankly, I don’t think they were, I think they were held as remembrance for the victims. That point accepted, there would have been plenty of people in this country furious at how another Islamic terror...

    [Music] Morrissey's Bonfire Of Teenagers

    You’re entitled to that view of course, for the record though I broadly agree with Morrissey’s sentiments about the reactions of many to that terrorist outrage. Lighting candles, holding vigils and singing Kum By Ya in the aftermath of any terror attack is de rigueur these days. I’m sure it...

    [Music] Morrissey's Bonfire Of Teenagers

    Morrissey has a long record of producing songs about challenging issues, the Smiths and Morrissey have produced songs about suicide, death generally, and the moors murders, an issue Mancunian Morrissey has a particular point of reference with in his life. I suspect if multi millionaire cockney...

    You need to keep an eye on events, whilst there is a focus for the negative news in U.K., we shouldn’t ignore negative economic indicators in the EU. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/jul/04/germany-records-first-trade-deficit-since-1991-as-inflation-soars It’s not for me to predict what...

    There are plenty of examples that are emblematic of governance failure; I will see your concern about organisations that provide free food for deprived fatties, and raise you organisations that provide legal services courtesy of the tax payer that prevent the deportation of convicted foreign...

    So what, the facts are poor kids living in deprived areas are overwhelmingly more likely to be overweight and obese than underweight. From the stats…. “Among reception (age 4-5) children in 2020/21, 9.1% of those in the least deprived areas are obese compared with 19.7% of those in the most...

    [News] Fuel price protests set for M54 and M6 today with hundreds expected to join

    If they prevent the free flow of the emergency services, yes they should do prison time………I’m sure you would agree deliberately setting out to prevent emergency services from getting to and from emergencies is a crime that should be treated seriously. For deterrence alone.

    [Politics] Brexit

    Given current trends if there is one thing this country needs to sort out urgently, then it’s our fatties especially in the most deprived areas. We are an outlier compared to our European peers, the gap in overweight and obesity rates between children from the least and most affluent families...

    Don’t worry, if that poster (or anyone else) has referenced such an event as an “accident” then I would happily fire off a good old fashioned goad.
