I want to say that as a UK citizen I do not find the Eid festivities and public prayer in any way disturbing. I find any suggestion that they are disturbing to be very offensive and un-British.

@CapitalCrashout @based16z He's never told anyone to buy anything

@based16z He might actually be the worst. Should be in jail for the things he’s said and told people to do.

Tuchel names his 35-man England squad for internationals with Uruguay and Japan 🦁

@crewslover who's mister ballon dor? someone please answer😩

@mindset292521 @MaxFSport He's still a CFC player and clearly part of the 3 to be sold...

Chelsea are behind Liam Rosenior and sympathise that he has come into a situation where the squad is said to be ‘knackered’ and has not had appropriate time to implement his ideas.
Summer target lists are underway with all eventualities being considered, as Chelsea feel UCL qualification will likely come down to fine margins in May.
There is no current suggestion that the model will be changed. Chelsea also feel that contract statues with many current stars wanting more money is further proof that it would not be wise to chase signings that would be looking for a high base salary.
The club want players to be together as a team and earn their money. There is not an appetite to create an entitled and unhealthy culture and the cost to risk ratio is high.
Directors are working within the financial restrictions and the model put in place by Behdad Egbhali.
There may be an odd exception but generally this is what I’m told. The club are open to spending high transfer fee’s but not salaries straight away.
1/3…

@PutneyFleur @NazShahBfd Stop saying any disagreement of Islam creeping further into our country is Islamophobic. It's ridiculous
English
This is Islamophobic and divisive - it’s showing a short shared prayer at the Open Iftar not ‘domination’.
We are proud of our diversity in London and Trafalgar Square hosts different religious and cultural events all the time - including the Passion Plays at Easter.
Nick Timothy MP@NJ_Timothy
Too many are too polite to say this. But mass ritual prayer in public places is an act of domination. The adhan - which declares there is no god but allah and Muhammad is his messenger - is, when called in a public place, a declaration of domination. Perform these rituals in mosques if you wish. But they are not welcome in our public places and shared institutions. And given their explicit repudiation of Christianity they certainly do not belong in our churches and cathedrals. I am not suggesting everybody at Trafalgar Square last night is an Islamist. But the domination of public places is straight from the Islamist playbook. Trafalgar Square belongs to all of us. It is a national memorial to our independence and our salvation. Last night was not like a televised football match or a St Patrick’s Day celebration. It was an act of domination and therefore division. It shouldn’t happen again.

5k concurrent viewers is the most-watched stream I have ever had. Pulled down by the very company that invited me to the event to cover it... What a joke.

How much do you need invested to withdraw £35,000 a year and never run out of money?
Probably less than you think.
Start with £875,000 in a growth portfolio averaging 10% a year.
Withdraw £35,000 annually.
Here’s what happens.
After 5 years:
You’ve withdrawn £175,000
Your portfolio grows to ~£1.19M
After 10 years:
You’ve withdrawn £350,000
Your portfolio grows to ~£1.71M
After 20 years:
You’ve withdrawn £700,000
Your portfolio grows to ~£3.88M
Read that again.
You took £700k out…
and your portfolio is now worth £3M more than when you started.
That’s compounding.
Eventually your money makes more than you spend.
Now here’s the UK cheat code.
If that £875k sits inside a Stocks & Shares ISA…
Every pound you withdraw is tax-free.
No income tax.
No capital gains tax.
Nothing.
A £35k salary from a job gets taxed.
£35k from your ISA lands in your account in full.
So how long does it take to build £875k?
Invest £500/month at 10% and you get there in about 29 years.
Start at 25 → ~54
Start at 30 → ~59
At that point your portfolio can pay you £35k a year.
Forever.
The UK actually gives investors incredible tools.
Most people just never use them.

@redrumlisa You have no understanding of what you're talking about

LSE Professor earning over 100k a year will have a very good pension pot - I worked at the LSE their Professors never leave the Academic/Political bubble & I mean never. Thinks a 70 year old man in Stoke on Trent who has worked on a building site since he was 16 shouldn't have £12,500 a year to live on.

The UK triple lock is the singlest stupidest policy in the entire Western world, and the most damaging to the future of a country. Of course, it is also untouchable and almost undiscussed in the UK press. @mattyglesias does a big favour to the UK public here.

Any others that people recommend?

@Totallywired65 @henrywinter What's rugby got to do with it?
English
@henrywinter May be its because the Premiership is about as overated as can be. It relies on media driven hype, exagerated punditry and commentating, which is relentless. And all this XG tactical garbage is meaningless nonsense.
English
The reasons behind PL travails in the UCL (really only Newcastle acquitted themselves well) are far more nuanced than simply a question of fatigue. Also issues around coaching and playing styles, grappling and goalkeeping. But the schedule will come under scrutiny... 1/2

@CFCPys Will he? Why?
Sanchez would have made more mistakes that Jorgensen

I’d never invest in a Bulgarian bank, sorry! However, it appears Martin is suggesting it, so it must be safe.
I remember the rush to invest in Icelandic bank for a minuscule extra 0.001% on your cash ISA. However, the bank collapsed in 2008 and those covered deposits endured a wait of nearly two years.
Good luck!
Martin Lewis@MartinSLewis
Trading 212's 4.68% cash ISA rate (new customers only, no transfers at this rate) is avail via most 3rd party sites eg comparison sites. Go direct & you won't currently get the bonus that pumps it up to 4.68%, so be careful. Rates are changing sometimes by the minute as its ISA season, so always check

@a_goetsch You need to go to La Fromagerie and Bayley & Sage.
Have you had Mrs Kirkmams's and an Eccles Cakes from St John's?
Marylebone is amazing.

Si viviera en Londres, seguramente encajaría en Marylebone hasta mejor que en South Ken: cenar el sábado en St Johns, domingo de farmer’s market y misa en Santiago Apóstol, voltio por la Wallace o sentarme a leer algún libro en Daunt Books, picar algo en David Mellor.
