My first thought was 'How does this fit into the narrative spun by Matt Goodwin and co'? And then I realised I was only thinking that because of this chap's name. So in a way, their rot has already set in, even within myself.

Never have I seen such a perfect example of Schrödinger's Migrant.
Zia Yusuf, asked whose PIP Reform would cut, talks about "foreign nationals". Less than a minute later, same "foreign nationals" are taking all the jobs and damning British youth to life on PIP.
🤡 Utter clownshow. ~AA

"I imagine one of the reasons people cling to their hates so stubbornly is because they sense, once hate is gone, they will be forced to deal with pain." This James Baldwin quote is hitting harder than ever.

The failure of the government to denounce these thugs is completely fucking sickening.

Any critique of Arteta playing a cagey gameplan would have to be levelled at Slot, who did the same — except with all his best players, at Anfield. Anything else is post hoc fallacy.

The most confusing part of this whole narrative for me is it somehow suggests that winning at Anfield is something Arsenal should be doing. As if they're not the champions, playing at home, and actually teams should just try to beat them and it'd all work out.
Why didn't you just try to win, Arne?

Absolutely this. Sue fought for women in football every day and this is the result.
Also bravo Baroness Sue Campbell who transformed our Olympic team and then transformed our women's football team. Extraordinary record.

Even if "white British" will be a minority in the UK in 40 years - so what? Seriously, so what? What is so terrible about that? Make people spell out their horrors. Make them spell out the things they are supposedly not allowed to say. Make them own it.

When they say “immigrants” they mean “servants” and when they say “expats” they mean “masters”
Will never understand people who are obsessed with immigrants & “closing borders” yet think it should be very different for them when it comes to retiring to a warm country.
I guess they could never view themselves as immigrants.
