The board appointed the manager. They appointed Tisdale. They spent £11m on Engels due to their delays, £9m on idah. They appointed the analysts and medical staff. They initiated the civil war with @celticcollecive. They have allowed the stadium to fall into disrepair.

We also warned you that Privatisation would lead to higher bills and worse service. 45 years later you still haven’t voted in a Government that will reverse privatisation.
The left warned you about Thatcher, Major, Blair, Brown, Cameron, May, Johnson, Truss, Sunak and Starmer.
We are now warning you about Farage. Ready to listen yet?

Just 0.001% hold three times the wealth of poorest half of humanity, report finds
Data from World Inequality Report also showed top 10% of income-earners earn more than the other 90%
Fewer than 60,000 people – 0.001% of the world’s population – control three times as much wealth as the entire bottom half of humanity, according to a report that argues global inequality has reached such extremes that urgent action has become essential.
The authoritative World Inequality Report 2026, based on data compiled by 200 researchers, also found that the top 10% of income-earners earn more than the other 90% combined, while the poorest half captures less than 10% of total global earnings. Continue reading...

I don't understand why the British media allows a far right party funded by the super rich and stuffed full of former Tories to continue to present itself as "anti-elite". It's such a blatant and risible lie yet Farage is never called out on it.
