@hotwings100 They’re not though are they, the only people who benefit under Labour are the people on benefits

Let's face it. Millionaires and media owners want tories and reform in power because it is better for them. They don't like Labour because they are better for working people. QED.

@benonwine And the worst thing is this clueless government will look at how they can get more taxes out of people rather than how they can cut the benefits bill.

Benefits used to be for the genuinely hard up, those in most need for support during tough times or disability. But Tony Blair created a lifestyle that could be achieved simply by benefits. BENEFITS BRITAIN. Now people can claim for almost anything… 350,000 foreign families will now get more £ due to the two child cap being lifted. We are slowly going skint as a country. Every day that bill gets bigger for every boat that lands too.

@DanYorkshire @StaweckiMichael @hannahxLufc Yeah it is, we had the same for play off final, we just had to sit in different sections of the stadium. At least we both got there, you can’t have everything unfortunately.

@StaweckiMichael @mikehes2 @hannahxLufc Sounds reasonable but in this instance a father ST holder would want to sit with their son who would have to ballot. Logistical nightmare so close to the game

@EdwardJames Don’t think most Leeds fans think we’re safe at all and believe it will go down to the wire. We have winnable home games but form tends to go out of the window at the end of the Season. Any of the 4 could easily go down.

Leeds aren't as safe as they think they are. A West Ham win against Wolves and a Leeds loss against Man Utd will give a gap of 1 point. Tottenham could slip into the bottom 3 if Sunderland win or draw. Forest will be in the mix if Villa win. #EPL #LUFC #NFFC #THFC #WHUFC

@ejames500 @reformparty_uk I think if they could join forces it would be for the good of the country as otherwise they are going to split the vote and both will lose out.

I'm having a bit of a wobble I will definitely be voting @reformparty_uk but I do like Rupert Lowe and the messages he's sending out. I think he's maybe a bit too extreme and diplomacy goes out of the window with Rupert. Maybe it's time for being extreme and fuck the diplomacy. What do you think? Ideally @RupertLowe10 & @Nigel_Farage could settle there differences but that seems unlikely which is a real shame.

@linmeitalks State pension is why we paid our NI contributions. Stop the benefits for the lazy people who don’t want to work and the illegal immigrants then we wouldn’t have a problem.

Can I ask why, if a pensioner has worked all their life, they only have the state pension to rely on? Didn’t decide to save ? Put away for a rainy day ? Sounds like poor planning to me. And yes if your children have flown the nest and you, or you and your spouse are knocking around in a 3 or 4 bedroom house you bought decades ago- SELL it. You’ll have more than enough to live on.

Easter weekends get crazy out there. I’m glad to be moored in a lovely, quiet spot out of the way. A village is a short stroll. A storm is coming so I’ll be staying mostly cosy, reading and watching old films. I need to clean my windows too. Oh, and the obligatory glass of🍷🙏🥰

Our country is filthy - plastered in litter, cans, broken glass, graffiti. It is disgusting. A Restore Britain Government would get the millions of healthy Brits on benefits to pick litter and clean graffiti. Refuse? Lose your benefits. Restoring Britain means cleaning it up.

@Keir_Starmer Keir, this very morning you are putting up vehicle excise duty, air passenger duty, landfill tax, aggregates tax, plastic packaging tax, the climate change levy and business rates. All of these tax hikes are increasing the cost of living. So stop claiming that you are cutting it.

Marcelo, When you came to manage Leeds United, the false dawns and false starts had become the norm. The brief moments of joy were exceptional respites during the decade-and-a-half away from the top-tier of English football - 'the banter years'. The club had been unloved and uncared for by many managers and owners on the spiral down the football pyramid. That is why - when you brought a seemingly inexhaustible amount of competence and passion - it was a revolution. No one know what to expect before that first game of the season. And like before every first game of every new season, we all held our collective breath. So when Mateusz Klich stabbed home that shot against Stoke on that sunny day in August 2018 - the Elland Road roar that preceded was an exclamation of disbelief as much as joy. What followed was the best football any of us might ever see our team play in our lifetimes. What many of us would give to go back and live it all again. And how did you do it? Because you care. You care passionately about every small detail, every small moment - because you know that even the tinniest component of a football club, is part of the foundation of the whole. So you adjusted the position of electric sockets on the walls of Thorp Arch; a dirty boot print in the hall never happened again; and the players picked up rubbish for an hour, because their integrity and understanding of what the fans have to do pay to watch them, was as important to you, as their physical strength. You watched a season's worth of games for every one of our opponents, studying them meticulously until you knew every strength, every weakness, and what tactical changes they would make depending on the game state. You cared. You cared so much that your passion almost has its own gravity; it draws people in - and makes them care too. You turned a mid-table Championship squad into a mid-table Premier League side - no one else could have done that. But more than that - you turned #LUFC - one of the most hated teams in the UK - into what some pundits at the time called "everyone's second team" - by virtue of the most unbelievably exciting brand of football. Every press conference was a philosophical lecture. You lambasted modern football, football authorities, the press, agents and everything else that makes a mockery of the beauty of this game. But you always praised the fans, you always praised your players and you never, ever took credit. And while others jumped at the opportunity to lap up the applause for the fruits of your labour, you never puffed proud. Embarrassed, you even had to be goaded into lifting the Championship trophy. You have left every single manager that followed in your wake an impossible task. Your shadow lingers still. You will be loved forever in this city in West Yorkshire of which your face and words adorn murals 10ft tall. And we'll never forget how your lessons of hard work, love and passion and belief and hope, transformed our club. Even when the entire establishment tried to prise you off that pedestal they had so begrudgingly put you on - during the spy gate scandal - you simply dismantled the narrative with a tactical masterclass we will never the see the like of again. And you did it all in the most disarming way, while turning sport into art, and uplifting this community. You have personally changed the trajectory of my life, and those of countless others I know. Thank you does not feel enough for the appreciation and gratitude we all feel. But it will have to do. Vamos Bielsa, Vamos Leeds Carajo! We will never forget what you did for us! Gracias Marcelo!

In 2019 #LUFC’s then manager Marcelo Bielsa sent a scout to watch Derby train ahead of their upcoming fixture. The scout stood on a public footpath and took a few notes. The modern equivalent of a dark ages witch hunt followed, spurred on by hyperbolic pundits. Keith Andrews accused Bielsa of not giving a damn and not adapting to the culture of England. In fact, Bielsa explained in a 45 minute impromptu press conference that he cared too much. In the extraordinary presser, Bielsa broke down a tactical analysis of Derby - showing that he had amassed such an unprecedented amount of information and statistics on them - that the training session the scout watched could give him no extra information that he didn’t already have. Bielsa explained that he sent the scout anyway because if he didn’t do everything he possibly could - within the rules - to help Leeds win, then he would feel irreconcilable guilt. And after spy gate had been investigated by the EFL - and Leeds were found to be in breach of the “spirit of the game” and fined £250,000 - Bielsa refused to let #LUFC pay and instead paid it out of his own pocket. What was that Keith Andrews said about Bielsa not giving a damn and lacking respect? Today, the ‘spirit of the game’ has never felt less vague. Was it in ‘the spirit of the game’ to drag Bielsa’s name through dirt on every show throughout the spy gate scandal? And where is the ‘spirit of the game’ now, with football club-owners-cum-charlatans taking fans for a ride on their get-rich-quick schemes of stripping a community’s cherished possession of its assets and selling to the highest bidder? Where is the spirit of the game in agent payments and state-funded sports-washing? Or in the ceaseless betting advertisements that ruin lives? Or Man City’s 115 charges and the PSR hypocrisy that fails to create a level playing field - PSRs sole reason for existence? Is VAR in the spirit of the game? Is making away supporters travel 100s of miles at midnight in the spirit of the game? I’m not sure I have ever seen, I’m not sure I’ll ever likely see, a more erroneous use of the term and law being applied to punish a club. Those few weeks in 2019 were bizarre. The media made an avalanche out of a snowflake and pundits and wannabe coaches got paid to lambast Bielsa from the rafters. And after hearing about how Marcelo has revolutionised the game wherever he went and was idolised by the world’s best coaches. And after seeing Leeds United become “everyone’s second team (for the first time in the club’s existence)”- these pundits and analysts finally had a reason to tear Bielsa down off that pedestal and they did so with relish. They talked of Bielsa in the scathing tones usually only reserved for war criminals. Yet his only crime was that he sent someone to stand on a public footpath and watch a football team train because if he didn’t he’d feel guilty. It was a ridiculous moment for the culture and the irony was compounded when Leeds and Bielsa won the FIFA Fair Play Award for letting Aston Villa score a goal in another bizarre story for another time. If anyone embodies ‘the spirit of the game’ it is Marcelo Bielsa - or at least, football would be lucky to embody his spirit. The Argentine will be back in the country this month as his Uruguay side play England. Tonight, Keith Andrews returns to Elland Road as manager of Brentford. A timely reminder of what Andrews’ said about Bielsa during spy gate ⤵️

@PalaceReport Yeah look at him, what a prick celebrating like he’s just scored the winner in a Cup Final instead of someone being sent off because the refs useless. Still failed to score though.
