Tory front benches equally furious at a tax on mansions and hundreds of thousands of kids being pulled out of poverty. Shameful stuff.

Kemi Badenoch is laughable. The Tories are so irrelevant, what is the point in her even responding?

Absolutely vile and out of touch reference to "Benefits Street" by Kemi Badenoch. Child poverty is a scourge on our society and it's right it's being tackled properly

This and the removal of the Rape Clause really showed Reeves as someone with passion and care. Sadly we've not seem the same from the rest of the shambles of a Labour party. Show you know the roots of your party
The 2 child cap is lovely political chess tbh. Almost daring the opposition to tell the world that they're against kids being lifted out of poverty. And of course the Tory benches fell for it, giving her a tap in.

The Bears are doing the obviously correct thing. Madness really.
SOURCES: The Chicago Bears are hiring Ben Johnson as their new head coach, @diannarussini.bsky.social reports.

Huge fan of both my NFL team and my Football team losing 6-3 within a week. @spursoffical.bsky.social and Chicago Bears, you kill me.

Tamworth's last experience of playing a North London club. Lost 7-0 to Barnet....

Good news but let's be clear, Thomas Brown interviewed for the OC job this summer and didn't get it. Now he's the head coach. Club has no idea what it's doing.
Sources: Bears coach Matt Eberflus has been fired after an ugly loss to Lions, the team’s six in a row.

Chicago now has the NFL’s third head coach opening.

It actually happened!
The #Bears fired Matt Eberflus, per sources.

Good article and just reinforces the worry that INEOS are selling snake oil. Cycling team is meh, Nice and FC Lausanne-Sport the same. Even the teams they work with (All Black, Mercedes F1) aren't what they were prior to INEOS. Seems like this marginal gains stuff is a grift.
‘Everyone may ask how, exactly, it is putting the "Manchester" back into Manchester United to slash jobs from Mancunians and hike ticket prices for local kids, or how INEOS are a "beacon" of a "fan-centred" approach when this latest decision was taken without consultation.’
INEOS arrived at Man Utd on a wave of goodwill but ticket price rises put that at risk
The drive to increase revenue is now affecting matchgoing fans and supporters' groups are not impressed

Big fan of him not celebrating then proceeding to sit on the floor pretending to drive a car. Make your mind up Pedro.
Emphatic from Pedro Porro 💥

Chicago Bears and Spurs. Got to question your life choices to be honest.

Enjoying the stylings of Lewis Hall. Lovely player and adds much needed balance. Love his calm on the ball and the fact he looked like Anthony Gordon would if he'd had an easier life.

Thanks for all the follows! I'll spend some time following back over the next few days, but rest assured, I love you all very much.

My mum worked in the North Middlesex hospital which is about half a mile from White Hart Lane. My Dad asked her to ask her boss if I could be born in a room with a view of the stadium. Maternity ward on the 15th floor and you could see perfectly. Family basically, but a nice story nonetheless.
In the spirit of everyone being extremely welcoming and willing to chat on here and it being the middle of an international break, could I ask those following me to tell me how they got into supporting the clubs they do? Was it a parent? A relative? School friends? Something else?

Because it made me cry about the loss of a man I didn't know and had never met.
In the spirit of furthering understanding.

🤼 people on this place - without saying what it is, why is your favourite match your favourite match?

Do that whole quote thread thing if you want, they're fun rabbit holes to chase.

New Zealand’s parliament was disrupted by Māori members staging a Haka during a contentious vote over the reinterpretation of a 184-year-old treaty between the British and Indigenous Māori.

Simply superb scenes.
