@eddiemacbawa @ChelseaFC @cfc_heritage @gate17marco @ChelseaKelv @onlyapound @SmiffyEastStand @richschaller54 Yes that was me and my mate Tim Dingley.

Happy Full Members Cup day today. 40th anniversary today of @ChelseaFC 5-4 win over Man City. Probably a few folk on here who were there and was their first ever Wembley Chelsea visit. @cfc_heritage

@ProudofusUK No, the Mesopotamians started civilization by storing food. That allowed humans to survive in greater numbers. It was the first agricultural revolution. Those ideas spread to create Egypt, then the Greeks then the Romans and finally the British, who created the second revolution

They told you this country has nothing to be proud of. They were wrong. 🇬🇧 2,300 years ago, Greek explorer Pytheas of Massalia sailed to these islands. He found Cornish tin miners already trading with the ancient world, and Stonehenge, built before the pyramids of Giza. He named us Pretannike. The Painted Isles. Britain. That's a snippet of who we were. Here is what we built: 🍎 Isaac Newton, a farmer's son from Lincolnshire, gave us the laws of the universe. ⚡ Michael Faraday, a blacksmith's son from Surrey, made electricity usable. 💉 Edward Jenner, a country doctor from Gloucestershire, gave the world vaccination. 🧫 Alexander Fleming discovered Penicillin, saving over 200 million lives. 💻 Alan Turing broke the Enigma code at Bletchley Park. 🚂 Charles Babbage & George Stephenson pioneered the computer and the railway. 🌐 Tim Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web. He could have patented it and become the richest person alive. He gave it away for free. We are the ordinary people who forced the most powerful empire on Earth to end slavery. Not once, but twice: 📜 The Slave Trade Act 1807 📜 The Slavery Abolition Act 1833 Then, we sent the Royal Navy to enforce it globally. The West Africa Squadron patrolled for 60 years. They captured 1,600 slave ships and freed 150,000 people. 7,000 British sailors died doing it. Nobody asked them to. No other nation joined them. They did it anyway.🇬🇧🫡 That's a snippet of what we chose to do. Here is what we gave the world: ⚖️ Magna Carta (1215) & Habeas Corpus 🏛️ Parliamentary Democracy 🌍 Common Law, now used by 80 countries and 3 billion people 🤝 The Commonwealth. 56 nations. They weren't forced to stay. They chose to join. We are on a mission to bring back our glorious history. Not to pretend we never did wrong, but to show the enormous amount of right. Every fact verifiable. Every claim true. We are Britain. We are mighty. Every video we make is funded by people who believe our history is worth saving. Stand with us: proudofus.co.uk/support Be part of us. Be Proud Of Us. 🇬🇧

@KiszelyPhilip @Mike1222 I wanted to reply in your favour. But I'm English.. I have 7 English children. All good. But if I slate Islam I'll be arrested. 4 of my children are females. They are strong and feisty. No way could they be forced into islam.

It’s been an extremely rapid and deeply disorienting descent into chaos. Starmer’s government was loathed from Day One; the man himself became an enemy of the people the minute he set foot in Southport and established his two-tier regime of shame. And Big Ange, Rachel from accounts, and the Reparations Kid? Nuff said. For me, the defining aspect of this whole sorry saga is the Pakistani rape gang scandal. It’s early days yet, I know—we’ll almost certainly see civil unrest on a scale never before witnessed in this country—but it’s difficult to imagine anything worse than an impulse to downplay the wholesale gang rape of vulnerable children. Diversity, you see. All in the name of diversity. Except it isn’t. It was in deference to a particular kind of cultural difference. Or, to put it bluntly, fear of violent Islamism. They know—after years of mass immigration—that the country is heading in only one direction. It would be foolish to deny it. Much of our national conversation now revolves around Gaza. Jews are subjected to maniacal levels of hatred, simply for being Jewish. But it doesn’t stop at the school, the deli, or the synagogue. The pro-Palestine activists absolutely hate Britain too. Starmer has made a bad situation infinitely worse by appeasing these terror-loving sectarians. They despise weakness almost as much as love their first cousins, and they will unleash their fury on the towns and cities of this country. I’m dreading it. The latest stunt is open grief for the evil Ayatollah. Tears for Hitler. Did you ever think it would get this bad? Don’t bother answering. Just know that we’re only at the beginning. I’m sorry, but it’s true.

@tag4UK He's a racist

I am British; I come from the land of quiet resolve. I am the farmer, mending a fence at night in the rain. I am the old lady, putting the kettle on after hearing bad news. I am the bus driver, waiting, because I saw someone running. I am the nurse, who saves her tears for when she gets home. I am the new father, rising early for another long day. I am the fisherman, pushing out my boat after yesterday’s storm. I am the postman, battling the wind to finish my round. I am the young man in uniform, saying goodbye to my sweetheart. I am the neighbour, who checks in on an elderly friend. I am the young mother, quieting the storm, with a soft song. I am the warrior, slow to rise, impossible to defeat.

@tag4UK Quoting Rupert Lowe: 'I'm with the cafe owner. The publican. The window cleaner. The plumber. The electrician. THEY deserve our respect and our gratitude. They're the ones who make this country work, not the pretentious empire-building desk-jockeys in central London.'

It's become a really weird world where finally the Americans have said enough is enough. Several presidents have tried to negotiate. None of us thought it would work, as we knew the Iranians would develop a nuclear bomb and were hell bent on using it to destroy Israel, with deep

@ftumch_older @London_W4 Yes that is a good pub. Much nicer in the 80's when it had the full bar nearly up to the ceiling.

@London_W4 Came across this fantastic little boozer/restaurant/theatre ‘The Victoria’ Paddington …… whilst up in the smoke recently.

And now, after a morning of wrapping and posting my book Greatest Pubs to the beautiful people around the world, I’m here at a pub, somewhere in London. Just feel the warmth from that beautiful open fire as I sit on a lovely sofa with a pint of beer. Cheers 🍻

@London_W4 I'd say that was well less than a pint and you haven't had any yet??

@AutoPap Awful.

Bloody hell, if this is real I'm in!

@SW6Steve True but the football was shite and the pitch mud. With the occasional dart launched from the back of the shed.

Love this pic of the Bridge with the Empress State Building in Lillie Road in the background, Back when CHELSEA had loyal die hard support who took NO crap from anyone 💀

@DiscountedTr Ermmm piloted royal navy helicopters for years and risked his life in the Falklands War. He's not all bad for sure.

> royal freeloader who’s sucked on the British taxpayer teat for 60+ years without ever holding a real job > born into obscene privilege, handed a navy commission he barely earned, then “retired” at 40 to live off public money > pocketed £250k+ annual allowance from the Sovereign Grant — straight from taxes — while doing fuck-all “trade envoy” photo ops > lived rent-free in massive Royal Lodge, 30 rooms, 98 acres, all maintenance and upgrades quietly billed to the Crown Estate (i.e., taxpayers) > private security detail costing millions per year — paid by the Met Police budget until the scandals got too hot > even after getting stripped of titles and duties, still clung to the mansion and perks like a spoiled parasite > £12 million Epstein settlement reportedly bankrolled in part by mommy Queen’s Duchy of Lancaster funds — again, taxpayer-linked revenue > daddy Charles finally cuts the cord in 2023-24, forces him to downsize because the public finally screamed loud enough > still refuses to leave Royal Lodge, squatting in a property he can’t afford to heat or secure on his own > zero income, zero contribution, infinite entitlement — just endless luxury funded by nurses, teachers, and binmen > whines about “privacy” while every brick of his lifestyle was built with public cash > ultimate symbol of royal parasitism: a useless, scandal-plagued spare who’s never paid for a thing in his life absolute disgrace to the crown

@ENZOIZU No, we brought on Palmer.

🚨🎙️Another chapter in the SAME trend, and this one is the clearest yet. Napoli away wasn’t about pretty football. It was about whether this group can survive a night where the plan gets tested, the game turns, and the margin gets tight. Because those are the matches that separate: a team that’s improving, from a team that’s just having good moments. We went in with a bold setup. Different personnel usage. Different structure. And for parts of that first half, it looked like the kind of gamble the timeline loves to screenshot when it goes wrong.😅😂 We conceded. We went behind. The noise started loading… But here’s the point you can’t dodge: The trend isn’t we never suffer. The TREND is we’re learning how to respond when we DO. 👀 This game was the definition of growth: We didn’t fold. We didn’t spiral. We didn’t start playing hope-ball. We stayed in the fight, then we CHANGED the fight. That’s what serious coaching looks like. Not stubbornness. Not ego. Not my system or nothing. We tweaked. We adapted. We made the right changes. We brought on the quality, we shifted the structure, and we flipped the momentum. And THAT is exactly why I keep saying: stop reading matches like isolated clips. Read them like a story. Because the story tonight was simple: Chelsea didn’t win because everything went perfectly. Chelsea won because we found solutions. And in Europe, away from home, in a must-win environment, that’s the biggest signal of all. Now watch what the TIMELINE will do: They’ll argue about the lineup. They’ll argue about who should’ve started. They’ll argue about who proved what. But the bigger headline is the same one I’ve been hammering: Chelsea are starting to win games in different ways, control wins, patience wins, chaos-managed wins, comeback wins. A young team becoming serious isn’t dominant every week. It’s repeatable mentality plus adaptable football. 🤝 Tonight wasn’t just three points or qualification or headlines. It was proof that when the game stops being comfortable, we’re starting to look like a team that can still find a way. So If you’re honest about football, you can see it. And if you can’t celebrate THIS because it doesn’t fit your narrative, that’s not standards. That’s ego. The trend continues. 👀💙 #CFC

@MarioNawfal What's a shahed drone going to do against an f16?

🇺🇸🇻🇪 HOW THE U.S. NEUTRALIZED VENEZUELA'S RUSSIAN AND CHINESE AIR DEFENSES IN MINUTES While the world watched Maduro's extraction, the real battle was fought in the electromagnetic spectrum and high-altitude stealth corridors. The U.S. reportedly bypassed its F-16 fleet entirely, opting for the F-35 Lightning II to lead the operation. Why? Venezuela wasn't a simple target. It was a fortress of integrated Russian S-300VM systems, Chinese radar networks, and Iranian-sourced Shahed drones. A "highly lethal" environment where non-stealth aircraft go to die. With S-300V systems backed by Buk-M2 units and dense radar grids, an F-16 would have been lit up like a Christmas tree miles from the coast. Instead, the U.S. deployed a command and control juggernaut: 8 destroyers and 3 amphibious assault ships turning the Caribbean into a floating headquarters. F-35s launched from Puerto Rico and sea-based platforms used sensor fusion to target mobile air defense sites in real-time, clearing the path for Special Forces heading to the palace. By the time Venezuela's aging Su-30MK2s could scramble, the digital war was already over. Venezuelan targets were reached within 15 minutes of the order. Russia's S-300s. China's radar networks. Expensive lawn ornaments. Source: @AITELLY1

@TheSecretScout_ Basically, clatter them early. Steel has gone from our side.

@BrianRoemmele How does it get the co2 to turn into oxygen if it's underwater?

This is a plant showing the process of photosynthesis. We can see it because this is an underwater plant. That stream of bubbles is the output of this Oxygen making machine. From sun power to human power via plants. It is all so very perfect.
