@shauntippins @SimonPeach No. The challenge is that the core Goalkeeping group need to do different training to the outfield players, or practice defensive drills etc. So they need a competent Goalkeeper to take part in the main training with the Outfielders etc

@SimonPeach All the money in the FA and they couldn’t just hire a goalkeeping coach that’s not going to be a number in the squad? Is he good on karaoke or dealing cards?

The FA confirmed Jason Steele has been called up "with the prospect of him joining the World Cup squad as a training goalkeeper during the summer". Tom Heaton filled that role at Euro 2024

@JoePJRobertson @csjthinktank Your constituency however has a massive issue with youth unemployment and only a limited number of apprenticeships available. The economy won't grow when seasonal tourism and hospitality roles are the only options available. Older workers have options the young can only leave

@JoePJRobertson Always in Ryde.... Never in the Bay. Are you too embarrassed by it, or just avoiding it? You never film here, you never bring VIPs here, yet Yaverland to Shanklin is by far the most populated part of your constituency.

Its English Tourism Week. The Government needs to support our tourism and hospitality sectors rather than hit them with more tax. Conservatives have pledged a permanent 100% business rates relief for the majority of the leisure, retail and hospitality sector which are the engine to local growth.

@shanaka86 Surely the USA in all it's wisdom included keeping Helium flowing in its plans. Or it saw and opportunity to increase prices and make more profit from it's supply?

BREAKING: Everyone is watching the Strait of Hormuz for oil and fertilizer. Almost nobody has noticed that it is also shutting down MRI machines, semiconductor fabs, and the global aerospace supply chain. Helium. The second lightest element in the universe. No substitute exists for it. You cannot synthesize it. You cannot replace it. And roughly one-third of the world’s supply just went offline. Qatar produces 30 to 33 percent of global helium as a byproduct of LNG processing at Ras Laffan, home to the largest helium production facilities on Earth. When the Hormuz blockade triggered LNG force majeure declarations and attacks hit Qatari infrastructure, the helium stopped flowing with it. Prices have doubled in spot markets. And helium has a property that makes this crisis structurally different from oil, fertilizer, or any other commodity caught behind the strait. It evaporates. Continuously. Even in sealed containers, helium boils off. The global supply chain operates on roughly 45 days of buffer before existing inventory simply ceases to exist. You cannot stockpile helium the way you stockpile crude oil in salt caverns or grain in silos. If the supply stops for six weeks, the buffer is gone. Not depleted. Gone. Returned to the atmosphere where it is too diffuse to economically recapture. This is why the industries that depend on helium are facing a crisis that no financial instrument can solve. Semiconductor manufacturing requires ultra-pure helium for wafer cooling in lithography and for leak detection in sub-5-nanometre chip fabrication. TSMC, Samsung, and Intel cannot produce advanced processors without it. Every AI chip, every smartphone processor, every data centre GPU in the current generation traces its manufacturing lineage through a helium-cooled process. If fabs run dry, the production lines stop. Not slow. Stop. MRI machines require liquid helium to cool superconducting magnets to near absolute zero. Hospitals cannot substitute another gas. When helium supply tightens, MRI availability falls. During previous shortages, hospitals rationed scans. A sustained one-third supply cut puts diagnostic imaging capacity at risk across every healthcare system that depends on magnetic resonance. Aerospace depends on helium for purging rocket fuel systems, pressurising tanks, and testing for leaks in systems where failure means explosion. NASA, SpaceX, ULA, and every launch provider in the Western world runs on helium. Fibre optic cable manufacturing requires helium atmospheres. Quantum computing research requires helium-3 isotopes for cryogenic cooling. The US is the world’s largest helium producer and has some buffer capacity. Algeria and Russia produce meaningful volumes. Overland rerouting from Qatar through Oman and Saudi Arabia is theoretically possible but logistically slow and capacity-limited. None of these alternatives can replace one-third of global supply within the 45-day evaporation window that defines the crisis timeline. The same 21-mile strait that is starving the food system is now threatening the technological infrastructure of modern civilization. The fertilizer trapped behind Hormuz determines whether four billion people eat. The helium trapped behind Hormuz determines whether the chips powering the AI revolution get manufactured, whether cancer patients receive diagnostic scans, and whether rockets carrying communications satellites reach orbit. One chokepoint. Two invisible supply chains. Both irreplaceable. Both operating on biological or physical deadlines that no ceasefire retroactively extends. The world built petroleum reserves. It never built fertilizer reserves. It never built helium reserves either. The pattern keeps repeating. The lesson keeps being ignored. Full analysis: open.substack.com/pub/shanakaans…

bbc.co.uk/news/articles/… The profiteering doesn't come in the rising market. It is an imperfect market which goes up inline with wholesale prices but comes down much slower, especially where local competition is weak.

@adamcooperF1 @LiamLawson30 @FranColapinto Imagine if Cadillac with their Ferrari Turbo's come through fast and the RB-Ford and Mercs get bogged down - Carnage will come on at least one start early this season. Ferrari anticipated the starting issues and engineered for it - but I think ultimately the safety will win out

Adam Cooper@adamcooperF1·
I asked @LiamLawson30 about that avoiding action by @FranColapinto on Sunday: "It was very impressive from his side to avoid it. He had very good reactions. And I was very lucky. I honestly at that point had braced already in the car. I was looking in my mirror, and I saw his car on my left when he was close to me, and I was sure he was going to hit me. And then all of a sudden, he came by me on the right. So he did a very good job to avoid that. And obviously we need to do everything we can to make sure we don't have the same issues off the start, because it cost us the race."

@SkySportsF1 Agree with Ferrari's sentiment. Their car gets off the line great and they identified the need to do that. However - If Colapinto had hit Lawson on Sunday it would have been a horrific accident and involved a third of the field. Then we would be having a very different discussion

@KieranMaguire Fully agree - the coins are less of an issue (most stadiums are cashless anyway). But the Power bank is an issue when you've a long day - it's a bloody long journey to Sunderland from anywhere other than Newcastle and possibly Leeds. Are Laptops banned? You could use it as the pb

Appreciate this ban affects all fans but Brighton fans have been advised that coins and phone power banks are banned from the Stadium of Light and there will be ‘enhanced searching’. “Any coins discovered during searches will be placed into sealed collection buckets. These will be donated to Brighton and Hove Albion Foundation” Twelve hours of travel plus the match itself on a single charge is pushing it. As for coins, I’ve never assaulted anyone with a 20 pence coin before, but is that how football fans are seen these days?

This chart is the reason why every single socialist must be laughed at and shamed over and over. A wealthy nation tried socialism and destroyed its economy - Venzeuela. A socialist country tried capitalism and created prosperity - Poland. Socialists, all of them, are fundamentally stupid people. They have a childish approach to economics, ideologically stuck to an idea WHICH CAN'T WORK and has NEVER WORKED. Despite the wealth of evidence through the entirety of history, they stick to this stupid idea - an idea which creates poverty, misery and death. Why? Because they can't get their stupid heads around the idea that some people get rich. Shame them, over and over, laugh in their faces and shame their stupidity.

@RichCoo94433360 @InsideAudiF1 Good point with Audi's office at Motion Bicester and Racing Bull's having offices on the Red Bull campus in MK. Definitely a possibility - or even the chance of a Silverstone race on 19th April - although it would require the cancellation of JapFest

@InsideAudiF1 obviously they're being cancelled. the sensible option is to add an extra test for teams in silverstone. (because all teams apart from ferrari are based around silverstone. ) easiest logistics

🚨 BREAKING: A fan who shared a flight to Shanghai with Isaac Hadjar and Kimi Antonelli claims the two drivers were discussing the Formula 1 rounds in the Middle East, reportedly already confirmed to be cancelled. Hadjar jokingly told Antonelli: “That’s two fewer races for you to win.”

@Axy0m @CadillacF1News_ @SoyMotor You cannot move street circuits. And only a permanent circuit with good infrastructure could step in at short notice. We are literally looking at Silverstone, RB Ring, Spa, Monza, Imola or Barcelona at this notice and it is still too cold for 3 of these.
