What a gulf in quality and - very noticeably - physical power at Ibrox. Rangers are simply bossing Celtic, who cannot construct an attacking move. And I wonder what Rangers fans are now thinking about this £8m ‘dud’ Youssef Chermiti.

Farage, would have you back to the grand old days when a health service provided for only those who could afford it. Before any comrade of mine thinks of voting for him, listen to the outcome of his policies.

Soon all the people who still remember the horror of life for working class people before the creation of the NHS will be dead... and their testimony will become hearsay to those who would strive to capitalise on ill health. Harry Leslie Smith reminds us:

Ken Murphy is Tesco’s UK CEO and the highest paid supermarket boss. He gets £9,930,000 a year, but is registered to pay tax in the Republic of Ireland. Yet today he complains about his workers wages being too high.

McFadden says Mandelson should give any money from being sacked to charity A reminder McFadden once claimed £40,000 on expenses for renting a home in his constituency despite owning the home next door (which he rented out & pocketed the cash). What did you do with that £, Pat?

The political commentariat are already lining up their ducks. You can almost hear the obituaries being drafted: "Keir Starmer" was a decent man, just ill-suited to politics. Honest, but naïve. Watch this video and try to say that with a straight face. This isn’t naivety. It’s contradiction piled on contradiction, position after position quietly dropped when it became inconvenient. The warning signs weren’t subtle. They were there from the start, in full view, for anyone willing to pay attention. Honest men don’t need this many rewrites. #Starmer #MandyFiles #MandelsonEpstein #Mandelson

The facts, put plainly, sound utterly monstrous - and a genuine low for British politics. It’s over.

Dr. Arikana Chihombori-Quao on a France's Role in the Demonization of Africa. She contends that France has been instrumental in perpetuating the negative portrayal of Africa through neocolonial structures, thereby impeding African sovereignty and depicting African nations as incapable of self-governance.

Celtic have written a letter, made a phone call, an enquiry, entered a race, posted interest, asked to be kept informed. Any other catchphrases or quotes I’ve missed in this transfer window?

Powerful article by @JamieDriscollNE debunking the notion that govts are subordinate to an 'all-powerful' bond market. Truth be told the bond market is a corporate welfare system for the super-rich, or to put it another way, "gold plated scroungers." thecanary.co/uk/analysis/20…

I warned - over and over again - that Keir Starmer would be a disastrous prime minister. That most political journalists did not understand the obvious tells its own story. New post, with receipts 👇 owenjones.news/p/i-warned-you…
