    [Football] The old West stand monkey chanters.

    I remember us playing Huddersfield in the 73/74 season. Town brought on a black youngster in the second half and a significant number of people in the West Sand seats subjected him to monkey chants every time he touched the ball. He had to be taken off as he was so (visibly) distressed.

    [Politics] Tory meltdown finally arrived [was: incoming]...

    One of the features of these 'research' groups is that they show little interest in actually doing any research. They start off with a simplistic position and just look for a few random bits of 'evidence' to back it up knowing that most of the media won't ask any probing questions.

    [Politics] Tory meltdown finally arrived [was: incoming]...

    I think the Tories will edge this. My ex-work had a branch in the area and a lot of people in who combine snobbery and grievance (about pretty much everything). A perfect toxic Tory mix.

    [Politics] Tory meltdown finally arrived [was: incoming]...

    How as a human being can you get into a position where you think that making lone, frightened children feel welcome is a bad thing? There will be a special place in hell for him, his colleagues and anyone who defends this.

    [Misc] George Ginn RIP

    A true Brighton legend. I am old enough to remember it being located in North Rd in the days when a record shopping session would include George’s shop and The Cottage.

    [Misc] Christians seem to be really good people

    The success of the human species is due to our ability to specialise and work collectively in groups. Nothing has ever been achieved by individuals working alone in spite of what Hollywood and the American right might suggest. The ability to work with others would give you a reproductive...

    [Politics] Tory meltdown finally arrived [was: incoming]...

    The enquiry should be about getting answers for people who, like me, lost close relatives and the many people with lives that are changed forever. It should be about learning lessons for the future. Instead it has become a Johnson circus with his protection and that of the Tory reputation being...

    Thought about my Dad who first took me to Albion games in 1971 and died far too young in 1985. He would be so proud and so am I. Following the Albion has so had so many intense emotional ups and downs but this feels particularly special. In dreamland right now.

    [Travel] Should you give up your pre booked seat on an aircraft so families can sit together?

    My default would always be to be helpful but a lot would depend on their attitude. Some of my relatives turn up, usually late, and aggressively insist on people moving with a massive sense of entitlement. I wouldn't blame anyone for telling them where to go.

    [TV] Coronation 2023 ***Official Match Thread***

    Only parts of the estate are open to tourists. Merchandise would still be sold relating to the history of the institution. Until you seriously attempt to estimate the potential impact generation of a post-monarchy Britain with what we have now these figures are incomplete. With them you can...
