Random one for the Football Manager players among you.
Who was a player who you signed/did well on your save as a wonderkid in the football manager games who went on to play for Newcastle later in their career?
Remember signing Ben Arfa back in the day.

@AnthonyTeasdale Wouldn’t mess with Lou - I do reckon Doug Willis would have been decent in a scrap

Let's get this straight: the hardest bloke in Neighbours was Lou Carpenter.
He would have battered Jim Robinson, Paul Robinson, Gail, Mr Udagawa – and any other sap associated with Home James.
Don't @ me, I'm right.

@ChiOnwurah Aye the country is in great shape Chi - you will probably get a huge majority next election as a thank you keep getting in with the great work

At PMQs the Tory leader said that 1.5million extra people are on universal credit - but that's because they are moving off legacy systems as she knows very well! In fact, more people are now in work than when the Tories were in office, so was she misleading the House?

The whole country is thoroughly sick of badenoch!!

Kemi Badenoch obliterated Keir Starmer at PMQs today: “The whole country is sick of this man.” She slammed him from start to finish, exposing him as a weak and floundering leader utterly out of his depth. A fantastic performance from the Conservative leader.

Nigel Farage asked on BBC news this morning if he'd debate with me.
Says he's too busy with the local elections & it will just be a "big row."
I've been asking him for months. Someone's running scared?
Vote Green.

As a member of the Privileges Committee, I, along with other members of the Committee, abstained from yesterday's motion to refer the Prime Minister to the Committee.
Had the Prime Minister been referred, it would have been essential that the Committee considered the matter without any perception that it had pre-determined its conclusions.
My decision to abstain reflects the importance of preserving both the integrity of the process and public confidence in its fairness.

Starmer has now been cleared, watching the far right crying again will be fun.

I let myself down earlier by taking the bait. I apologise & retract. I shouldn't have called KB "vile". I should have been more precise about why I am so disgusted by her turning sexual abuse into a political attack-line. Disagreeing with her motion is not supporting Epstein.

🚨 WATCH: Kemi Badenoch asks Labour MPs if they want to side with Jeffrey Epstein ahead of the Privileges Committee vote

@ArchRose90 Honestly amazed they have fallen into the trap @johnmcdonnellMP called it out. This was not a vote about Starmer but about the process to now allow him to be investigated goes against everything they said they have hammered themselves

I remember during partygate, Chris Bryant would preach about integrity, honesty and trust day and night.
Any signs of corruption would instantly result in 20 posts and 4 articles by him.
Now he has voted to back Keir Starmer and a cover up. A hypocritical imbecile.
English
Badenoch is lying to you. Only our voters, not Keir Starmer, can take away our jobs as MPs. Rebelling has almost no consequence (besides a brief suspension) and it allows the rebelling MP to grandstand to their voters that they're 'independent' thereby increasing their vote.
Kemi Badenoch@KemiBadenoch
To save his own skin, Keir Starmer threatened his MPs with the loss of their jobs unless they helped cover up his misleading statements to Parliament. It is a disgrace that 333 Labour MPs chose to be complicit in that cover up. It is very notable that the Chief Secretary to the Prime Minister would not repeat his boss’s exact claim that there “was no pressure whatsoever” from No10 on the appointment of Peter Mandelson, instead trying to 'clarify' what he had meant. This is a government coming apart at the seams. They are more interested in their own survival than the cost of living crisis affecting hardworking families. Labour MPs will rue the day that they voted against this motion, because it is the day that people saw they believe there’s one rule for Labour and another for everyone else.

Why is drinking alcohol during the working day treated as acceptable for MPs?
Yes, Parliament can involve long days. But so do 13-hour hospital shifts as doctors.
A doctor drinking alcohol mid-shift would face serious consequences, and rightly so.
MPs vote on decisions that affect millions of people. The public should be able to expect the same basic standard: sobriety at work.
One rule for them, another for everyone else.

@truemagic68 I don’t disagree but the few people I know who would vote green have pretty unsuccessful lives and do so out of envy/ biterness. If you have fuck all seeing the country go to ruin probably doesn’t impact you. Ps I’d never vote for the guy he’s a lunatic

@mflem388 What???? Are you serious! It would be the road to penury!

Serious question - why would any serious person listen to Zac Polanski, let alone VOTE for the Greens? I need a cogent reason, not a ludicrous comment such as he appeals to the Young. The Young are better educated than my generation! So should know better!

🚨BREAKING: Keir Starmer imposes a three-line whip on Labour MPs to oppose the motion referring him to the Privileges Committee for misleading the Commons
A three-line whip means attendance is mandatory, MPs who abstain or vote for will face losing the Labour party whip
