What did Iran hope to achieve with their drone attack at the weekend? I assume a 'show of strength' for the domestic audience. There was an interview last night on C4 news with a professor in Iran, and he was dropping suggestions of internal reporting indicating a 50-60% hit rate of the missiles. K...

Will take a while to get the jury in place by the looks of it! Must admit I'd find it very difficult to be impartial if I was there

I did…then changed my mind at the last second

This is down to the Republican party and Donald Trump. They are the ones blocking most of this. Maybe right now, but 12 months ago, in my view Russia was massively on the back foot and “we” had an opportunity to put a foot on the throat…and it didn’t happen. Whether through fear or complacency I ha...

The West , especially the USA should be ashamed.

Looks like it's heading that way...and 100% on your last point. Makes me sick

Bone-in pork shoulder, ideally, though you can use boneless, which is more readily available in supermarkets. Remove the skin and most of the external fat, then smother in yellow mustard and dry seasoning mix (usually brown sugar, powdered garlic, paprika/smoked paprika, onion powder, salt, black p...

Slight deviation from topic but one of my best mates has surname of Mee. His dad and mum....Roger and Sue

Refused to believe him until I actually met them both

So Ian Wright and Dion Dublin both think it is the responsibility of the goalkeeper to move when their eyeline is obscured by an offside player. This has at no stage been the rules of football. That's really the comment that wound me up. If that was the case, in theory they could have strung a bunc...

Tbf any of Man Utd, Liverpool, Arsenal & Chelsea losing like last night would make smile!

It might be a slightly different question but I listened to an interesting pod yesterday from Reed Galen which covered at least a bit around why people vote for him. It was focused on predominantly white, rural area voters and why they would vote for anyone who seemingly is nothing like them at all...

Unsure why BBC got singled out…looks like they picked it up from US and Der Spiegel. Guardian running with it too

So what have Reform got on Gullis?? Tice giving it large on Twitter talking about stuff they have on him and he should shut up with whatever he’s saying

As much as I think Gullis is a nasty , brainless chimp, for me this is bang out of order and leads to a very slippery slope

Better display by the Roses today against Wales. Some great tries too. Ellie Kildunne :heart: . I only caught the last 20 mins or so..but I suspect Mitchell won't have been too impressed by how they finished the game. I know the game was already won and we'd scored loads of tries etc. but we let it...

LRZ update. Am assuming it’s ‘only’ some sort of practice squad type of contract, but fair play to him!

Our manager is supposedly on record as saying that a player needs to be in his twenties before being physically developed enough for the rigours of first team football.... .. .... Rocket science it is not. Cheers. Not challenging you on it, but I'd be really surprised & disappointed if such an ...

Genuine question - what do you see the problem as? Competition? ££? Or both?

If he ever gets a game for us, he'll get such a massive reception! Legend!

So he now has 10 days to pay $175m...ish
