@Gav1981 He’ll be still celebrating his 5th promotion which I think is even 1 more than Jim Smith achieved

Just called in to see my mate Paul Warne see how he’s getting on! 😂 #dcfc #dcfcfans

@Nigetheplumber Looks like ice cream weather 🍦🍦

My view today at Leyland cricket club, and it’s hot 🥵

Derby County are in talks with Saudi sports supremo Turki Alalshikh over a potential investment deal. Negotations are advanced and now with the Independent Football Regulator #dcfc telegraph.co.uk/football/2026/…

@saintspins You haven’t been fined £200m, so you could argue you’ve got off lightly

If the EFL had any balls whatsoever they would just promote Hull automatically. Putting Boro into the final just create's another headache should they beat Hull, when Hull have been preparing to face us for the last 10 days. £200k for Leeds. £200m for Saints. Farcical.

Callaghan's Ghost. Labour is Walking the Same Road. Britain's government borrowing costs have hit their highest level since 1998. Morgan Stanley has told its clients the economy will flatline for the rest of the year. Asset managers are advising clients to avoid long-dated gilts. The pound is falling. And the Labour Party is consumed by a leadership contest that the bond market is watching with undisguised alarm. These are not separate stories. They are one story. The war in Iran has delivered an £11 billion blow to Rachel Reeves's fiscal headroom, slashing it in half. Conveniently, Iran arrived at exactly the right moment for the Chancellor: a ready-made alibi for a position that was already untenable. Unemployment is forecast to rise from 4.9% to 5.5%. Families will be no better off at the end of this year than they were at the start of last year. Living standards, frozen. Growth, gone. Against that backdrop, the gilt market is not pricing in recovery. It is pricing in what comes next. The trap is structural and there is no exit. If Starmer survives, markets see a weakened prime minister held hostage by his left flank, forced to loosen spending to buy loyalty. Gilt yields rise. If Starmer falls and Burnham or Rayner takes the keys, markets price in higher borrowing and a harder left turn. Gilt yields rise further. There is no combination on the Labour benches that the bond market greets with confidence. The verdict has already been delivered. Morgan Stanley's chief UK economist Bruna Skarica is explicit: there is limited scope for additional borrowing given what she calls binding market constraints. The more likely pressure valve is corporate tax hikes. Higher taxes into a flatlining economy is not a growth strategy. It is a contraction signal. Investment decisions get made before the tax even lands. The numbers are stark. The 30-year gilt yield is close to its highest level in 28 years. Every quarter-point rise in borrowing costs adds approximately £2.5 billion to annual debt servicing. Britain is already carrying the highest government borrowing costs in the G7. The arithmetic does not improve with a change of leader. It worsens with instability, and instability is now the only certainty on offer. Labour has been here before. In 1976, James Callaghan's government went cap in hand to the IMF, accepting humiliating spending cuts as the price of market confidence it had forfeited. The lesson was never fully learned. What is happening now is slower and more diffuse than 1976, but the underlying logic is identical: a Labour government that spent beyond what bond markets would tolerate, then lost control of the story when the consequences arrived. A new Labour leader arriving in Number 10 will inherit a fiscal trap with no exits: bond market discipline on one side, a restless parliamentary party demanding spending on the other, and an economy already in the forecasters' freezer. The temptation will be to reach for the same emergency language Reeves has used throughout. Markets have already discounted that language. They are waiting to see whether the new occupant has a credible story. The early evidence, from gilt yields, from sterling, from the parade of asset managers advising clients to look elsewhere, is that they have made their judgment in advance. Britain is not facing a single catastrophic event that can be identified, blamed and reversed. It is facing a slow-motion crisis with no circuit-breaker: no credible borrower, no credible story, and no political figure in the governing party with the standing to change the market's judgment. The bill has arrived. Nobody in Labour can pay it. "In 1976, James Callaghan's government went cap in hand to the IMF, accepting humiliating spending cuts as the price of market confidence it had forfeited."

People now debating whether we should rejoin the EU… Surely the real question is: Why on earth wouldn’t we?!

@Gav1981 Very

How good was this guy!!! #dcfc #dcfcfans #class

@PolitlcsUK Why pay billions to join a failed experiment

🚨 BREAKING: Wes Streeting calls for the Government to rejoin the EU "Leaving the EU was a catastrophic mistake"

I’ve long warned that Labour’s attacks on wealth creators and entrepreneurs would cost Britain. Now the Sunday Times Rich List gives us the results: it’s a bloodbath. 1 in 3 left the UK. Here's why top taxpayers and philanthropists are fleeing like it's the 1970s again. 🧵👇

@LarcombePeter @griffitha @SteveBakerFRSA You still don’t get it do you

@griffitha @SteveBakerFRSA Whether they pay the highest amount of tax relative to others isn’t the point. Tell us whether they pay the highest amount of tax relative to their worth, please. And then detail their philanthropy. Or don’t mention it at all.

@FootballInT80s We did the double over the Gunners that season 🐏🐏

“It’s not done, it’s not done” Arsenal, who did have “one hand on the trophy”, “hand the initiative” to closest rivals, Liverpool on 13th May 1989. Whilst The Gunners lost 1-2 at home to Derby, Kenny Dalglish’s men won 2-1 away to Wimbledon. Advantage Liverpool? 👀 🤔

@theafroaussie @JuliaHB1 And yet there are 2 million Palestinians actually living in Israel.

@JuliaHB1 Julia’s rating system for a genocide is one where only Jews can be victims and perpetrators at the same time

So impressive that they can do this, what with all the genocide and famine going on around them. The struggle is real ✊🏻

SHE FILED 181 REPORTS. THEY CALLED HER NOT CREDIBLE. THE CHILDREN WERE 11 YEARS OLD. Sara Rowbotham spent years working as a sexual health coordinator for the @NHS in Rochdale. Between 2005 and 2011 she filed 181 detailed referrals to Greater Manchester Police (@gmpolice) and social services. Each one documented the systematic rape and trafficking of girls as young as 11. Each one was ignored. Authorities did not dispute the abuse was happening. They disputed her. She was labelled not credible. Her team was dismissed. In 2014 she was made redundant. The reason officials gave for ignoring her? Community cohesion. That was the calculation. Institutional comfort weighed against the rape of children, and the children lost. A 2024 independent review commissioned by Greater Manchester's mayor confirmed her referrals were credible, substantive and appropriately communicated. The review found 96 men still considered a risk to children, and described the convictions that did happen as having scraped only the surface. Five police officers refused to cooperate with the review. They retired without sanction. Sara Rowbotham was awarded an MBE. The officers who ignored her received words of advice. That is the full story. That is the entire joke. @BBC @guardian @morningstaronline @GMP @AndyBurnhamGM @ITV

What a letter

@BigManLikeJoe @SConstabl3 Never forget never forgive

Frank Lampard you owe us one for not starting Marriott 7 years ago. Beat Wrexham tomorrow and we will forgive you #dcfc

@afneil Yet the PM was at the dispatch box in Parliament on 7th Feb 2026 saying he had seen the vetting documents, it's available in Hansard, video. Incontrovertible evidence. Starmer has misled the House.

Here's the thing: They know they're lying. We know they're lying. We know they know they're lying. They know we know they know they're lying. And they still think they'll get away with it. But we know better. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
