@King0243_PJC @mariachetcuti1 Should read this & comment @BBCNews instead of pandering to Reform & the Tories daily

Lest we forget: When a Reform councillor shared a post saying Labour MP Natalie Fleet “should be shot”, Farage refused to condemn it or sack him at PMQs. Starmer called for basic decency, Farage deflected to the Chagos Islands and reportedly mouthed “No I won’t”. Now Muhammad Ziauddin Yusuf and the rest scream like they own the moral high ground on threats and standards? The double standards are shameless.

@BBCNews no mention of the Hillsboro law hopefully coming in front of parliament this afternoon, you really are the pond life of fair broadcasting, why on earth you have a #Verify is beyond comprehension #Defundthebbc

@AndyGni Same here Andy was refreshing to hear his philosophy on how the game should be played & i liked it

Loved the Iraola press conference. First press conference i have enjoyed for about 16 months 🤣 Slot press conferences felt like getting waterboarded

@SaulStaniforth 2 years in power & hopefully finally sorted after being ignored totally by the Tory scum for the last 14 years

Yes its good that we're finally getting #TheHillsboroughLaw, but when govt minister Catherine Atkinson claims its "so personally important" to Keir Starmer, why has it taken 2 years to get to this point, & why did the govt try to water it down?

I was very impressed with what Iraola had to say in his press conference, It was refreshing to hear someone say the low block is no problem & that pressing the opposition is how he plays & why Liverpool employed him as the new coach, just hope they back him with new signings

I think its really important that we are very honest about this - Catherine is correct, it has been very personally important to Keir. Keir wasn't the issue. Shabana Mahmood was, even right up until the very last minute she was blocking. These past 2 weeks have been spent have intense, direct and honest meeting with the intelligence services committee, head of intelligence, their lawyers and Home office staff. It is those meetings and the sheer hard work of Pete Weatherby KC that was the reason for this massive progress. There were times when people, including MPs, said that Keir should have just overruled them all and put the Bill through. But the contents, the tiny details matter and there could not have been room for any one in the future to find a flaw within the bill and get out of the duty of candour. Thisbilll is such a massive change, not just in law but in the way bereaved and survivors are treated, and the biggest change will be the change in culture inworkplacess across the country. Its taken a long time, but it had to be righ, and that's why it was correct to slow down and make sure it was the strongest it can be. I can not tell you how hard Pete Weatherby, Debbie Caine and myself have worked these past 2 weeks. Even if others would now prefer to pretend on social media that it was all souly down to them! But that's a whole different conversation. But, it was really important to Keir and he genuinely does deserve the recognition and thanks for this. Nobody else pledged it. 😊

@empireofthekop @kingkaz_7 One cross in particular was just brilliant 🤩 remember UTFR

⏪ Eight years ago today, Liverpool signed Xherdan Shaqiri from Stoke after triggering his £13.5m release clause. What did you make of the Swiss attacker's three-year spell at Anfield?

@CELfc97 I fuckin hope so 🙏

Anyone reckon we see any transfers out the blue again? #LFC

@implausibleblog @wendyj08 It’s a right wing Tory infiltrated public broadcaster that has that many overpaid presenters that are terrified of tax rises they bow to the right, if it’s Tory or reform & no matter how extreme #Defundnow

Left: Count Binface criticises Newsnight for ditching 'proper investigative journalism' and has become a 'podcast' Right: A few days ago Rupa Huq is rebuffed in parliament when she asks the new BBC DG Matt Brittin about the BBC's plan to the appeal to more Reform UK voters Both Zia Yusuf and Laila Cunningham are on speed-dial for BBCQT and Newsnight respectively. The BBC is still well respected the world over, but bias towards the right becomes increasingly apparent. What was once more about facts and information, on some shows and on some subjects, edges towards misinformation We need to do better for our national broadcaster, it needs to recover and heal, and it needs better leadership, because since Brexit, it gets worse by the day

@l4pablo 😂😂😂

@mrdanwalker @wendyj08 Love yourself you fella #Prick

@kevhLFC Yeah read that but unless all deals are done his job of okaying money for choices of new players must come into play, he is Saudi Monday

@Anfield_Oracle Edwards came back to run the multi club model we bought no clubs so Edwards. Leaves

It appears Michael Edwards has fucked up once again with the Fenway sports group announcement, I just hope that any incoming signings are not affected 😳 UTFR

When the hydration break is Malbec as was the pre-match & now awaiting half time so I can zigzag up the hall into the kitchen for, you’ve guessed it another Malbec

@l4pablo @DossenaLFC Your right Paul doesn’t sound right & yes right or wrong I’m suspicious 🤨

@JamesMinghella I know that was last years problem bring in 4/5 get rid of 8 for me klopp saw in Ginni Shaka etc as essentials to being successful & we we’re almost unbeatable so all of the above not forgetting LW cover or probably playing from the off, need a decent sized squad

@Anfield_Oracle HM & RB? Imo, we need a bare minimum of 3 - if no sales. CDM, RW, RB/CB hybrid. This squad can improve already on a 60pt season with Iraola - add these 3 and its better. But, with 3 it'd still not be ideal. I expect 3/4 sales some will need replacing on top of the 3

@JamesMinghella I know James was jesting but as for signings I’m hoping there all sorted especially HM & RB plus a couple in midfield & a striker, I look at Villa & think with a couple of main injuries their still okay so incoming’s don’t have to be all starters or youngsters, think Klopp

@Anfield_Oracle I dont mean ME btw (although I'd happily give it a bash and fell id do a decent job tbf) but meant Edwards and Klopp 🤣 Lets just hope we sort our shit out and get some reinforcements in. Who you think we get?

@JamesMinghella I can imagine fella 😂😂

@Anfield_Oracle They worked wonderfully in tandem. ME and the data team doing the research and Klopp developing/coaching them. It was golden. Not sure who fell out with who but recruitment wasnt as good after Edwards. Shame really as it could have been so much more.

@JamesMinghella Twas him or klopp he thought he was the man, klopp stated he had first & last says on incoming players, which as manager is how it should be & we all know the fall out so yes IMO without a sworn affidavit, he fucked up, OK 👌

@Anfield_Oracle So you say he fucked up once again, but cannot point to a single time he fucked up? OK 👍

@JamesMinghella Without a crystal ball James i wouldn’t actually know but the timing itself & his past shenanigans allows me to form this opinion, remember him versus Klopp

@Anfield_Oracle How has he fucked up?

@JamesPearceLFC @David_Ornstein Mike Gordon is back 🙈

Michael Edwards has stepped down as FSG's CEO of football. He leaves with one year remaining on his contract. Owners unlikely to recruit a replacement with FSG president Mike Gordon set to resume control of running football operations. nytimes.com/athletic/74362…
