The betrayal of Ukraine is nigh. We must stand up to Trump or the consequences will last for generations - and cost many innocent lives.

FFS this is the new world order. We either challenge or we shrink. History tells us what we need to do. Surely?

Great evening at the Dale #oafc Encouraging signs we are putting that roper spell behind us again. Raglan and Fondop particularly great tonight. 👏👏👏

New episode of my least-favourite sit com just landed…

Hang it in the Louvre! #Trump

So the first failed pledge of Trump 2.0 - that he would end the Ukraine war in his first 24 hours… www.wsj.com/video/watch-...

Trump’s response, of course, is ‘drill, baby, drill’ 🤦

The embers that remain of any free-thinking media must fight hard against the ‘normalisation’ of Trump’s naked aggression to Canada, Greenland & Panama. With Meta ditching fact checking and X drink driving international domestic interference we are truly through the looking glass now. So worried.

Exactly what I was expecting but worse. We are living in a very scary world now for at least the next five years unless the remaining good actors can stand together - and fast.

Grim times 😬

Gutted tonight’s #oafc game is off. Am not totally convinced it’s the right decision -but what’s not open to debate is that to only let people know there was any doubt just an hour and 15 minutes from kick off is poor form.

Can’t stop watching and laughing at this: vm.tiktok.com/ZGdroE7xg/

Still recovering from the eight and a half hour drive yesterday. Also got a bad burn to my hand from spilling nuclear reactor-warmed coffee. Despite all that - and the manner the team was robbed - I’m only taking positives from it. Great family time + such a spirited and positive performance 👍 #oafc

Aw reet! Seeing as it’s #LancashireDay I’m going to give away a Northern Sky A4 print. Inspired by my hometown of Blackburn and the Nick Drake song. Repost and follow me to enter. I’ll pick a winner after 9pm (27 Nov) www.gailmyerscough.co.uk/product-page...

Lundstram masterclass so far #oafc

Excellent thread ⬇️

2-0 #oafc Well deserved tbh. I almost feel relaxed!

Great bit of play puts Norwood clear 1-0 #oafc

Morning all!

This is very sad. I’ve always believed tighter restrictions on the sale of fireworks is needed. Organised public displays are much better, safer, can be properly planned and prewarned - and they reduce strain on blue light services. It’s not about being fun police - it’s just common sense.
