Eclecticist. May post about all things digital, cycling, films and current affairs - or anything else that grabs my attention.
@zackpolanski.bsky.social is behaving like Corbyn. He hasn’t learnt that sometimes you need to apologise #bbcnewsnight

As a World Cup host, the U.S. shouldn't be flippantly barring officials from entering the country to do their jobs.

It's terribly backward.

It's also counterproductive.

Global sports competitions should improve international exchange and relations, not the reverse.

WTF California Democrats?!? Just got my absentee ballot for the primary and discover that there are 26 candidates for Governor. How’s anyone supposed to make a sensible choice?

@cerysmatthews.bsky.social as I understand it, “knocker uppers” had a long poll which they used to tap against people’s bedroom window.

@heidialexander.bsky.social why do Cross Country trains that travel hundred of miles between the South West and North East still only have 5 carriages. They are always rammed and uncomfortable. London commuter trains are twice as long.

I can’t really be bothered to work out what’s upset Brooklyn Beckham. But if I was him, my list of grievances would start with being given such a silly name.

Just received this message from someone I know in Minneapolis. "Minneapolis is very tense and feels a bit under siege. No East Africans on the street. No Hispanics on the street. No Ubers on the street which are driven by East Africans. All very eerie. All very tense."

What a dude
Ex-Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura: “We’re a 3rd world country now. I know. I’ve been to ‘em. I spent 17 months in SE Asia while the draft dodger was playing golf… that’s what happens in a dictatorship. In comes the military. That’s what’s happening here.” 🇺🇸

I wonder if Trump realises that bombing another country and kidnapping its leader may not be the best way to get the Nobel Peace Prize?

Great start to the New Year. Lulu singing “Man Who Sold The World” on Jools Holland’s #Hootenanny. She still has a great voice.

Emerging from the Boris investigations bunker and looking at the deputy leadership which suggests things might be looking up for Starmer.

If there was a candidate challenging No10’s direction who was uniting all Labour’s worried MPs then he would be in big trouble. So far that’s not happening.

3 August 1871 | Polish Jewish woman, Estera Berkowicz, was born in Częstochowa. She emigrated to Belgium.

She was deported to #Auschwitz from Kazerne Dossin in Mechelen on 18 August 1942. She was murdered in a gas chamber after arrival selection.

@cerysmatthews.bsky.social the Dennis Morris exhibition is absolutely fantastic. The photos of Marley and bands like the Sex Pistols are of course iconic. But I was even more
impressed by his many affectionate and insightful photos of black and white working class life in 1970s England.

Her name was Diana. She was 23 years old and 7 months pregnant.

Russia murdered her today in an attack on the maternity hospital in Kamyanske.

I’m no fan of the Clearlake “project”, but this was by far the best Chelsea performance under Maresca.
Chelsea stun PSG to win Club World Cup after Cole Palmer’s cool double
Chelsea stun PSG to win Club World Cup after Cole Palmer’s cool double
* Final: Chelsea 3-0 Paris Saint-Germain * Palmer 22 30, João Pedro 43 The boy from Wythenshawe who had sat on top of the Rockefeller on Friday took Chelsea to the top of the world on Sunday. It was 90F down on the pitch in New Jersey but, oh, this was cold all right. Two wonderful almost identical strikes, executed with an effortless ease, and a lovely soft-shoed assist from Cole Palmer made Chelsea the first winners of the 32-team Club World Cup, history made here. Paris Saint-Germain had seemed peerless, a side that shifted the paradigm, but they could not find a way past Robert Sánchez at one end and were picked off, victims of a perfect plan, defeated inside half an hour. It had started so well, so unexpectedly, and it ended even better, history made. “We know that they start the games very fast, very strong,” Marc Cucurella had said but while Ousmane Dembélé, forever on the prowl for prey, almost caught Sánchez 95 seconds in, it was Chelsea who did so. The first chance was theirs inside 10 minutes and it was so close that some of this stadium celebrated, the ball bending just past Gigi Donnarumma’s right post and hitting the pole holding the net up. João Pedro had teed it up, Palmer was the man whose shot with the inside of his left foot fooled them. Not for long. That, it turned out was just a sighter; next time, the MetLife could let go for real. Continue reading...
