Watching my first ever hockey match. No idea what's going on. The penalty rush play looks fun though

The Freeish Speech Union
🔴 Last week the Free Speech Union got a High Court writ to prevent the publication of a list of its donors

So we decided to investigate who *does* fund Toby Young's outfit

Wanna see? 🫣

New on Democracy for Sale:

Who funds the Free Speech Union?
Toby Young’s outfit went to court to hide its donors. Today we reveal that funders include US anti-abortion groups, Brexit politicians and Tufton Street insiders.

Oh the irony of the Free Speech Union using an injunction to, effectively, suppress free speech. If anyone is surprised by Toby Youngs action they havent been paying attention.

Dammed it more times than I care to mention as a kid
My favorite Twitter prompt was "RT this with your home river," so reskeet this with your home river.

FA Cup 3rd round weekend & it's Everton v Sunderland, better known in my house as the Leigh Roose derby.

.....and if you don't know who Leigh Roose was, then you need to treat yourself to a copy of 'Lost In France', my biography of the man who virtually invented goalkeeping.
