Well played Germany šŸ‡©šŸ‡Ŗ

The Republican Party of Ronald Reagan belongs to Russia now.

JD Vance preaching about democracy whilst continuing to claim that Trump didnā€™t lose the 2020 election.

Nazi Germany could have been halted in its tracks in 1938/39 when Hitler decided to invade Czechoslovakia, if we had acted early. Poland was subsequently abandoned in 1939 and then again in 1945. Allies need to stand firm with Ukraine and not give in to Trumpā€™s appeasement.

Painful. Not sure I can watch Jotaā€™s theatrics much more. But can Forest take all of Englandā€™s penalties from now on? #NFFC

Absolutely well played Exeter šŸ‘. #NFFC

Iā€™d like to think Trumpā€™s confusing DEI with DUI (or rather FUI) but he isnā€™t because heā€™s an absolute weapon.

Not sure how credible the governmentā€™s ā€˜plan for growthā€™ can be if it doesnā€™t include forming a customs union with our closest trading partners.

Rashford to Forest? Yes or donā€™t be ridiculous? #NFFC

Was asked yesterday about the economic impact of Brexit (again). Pointed to the absolute dearth of investment in any new manufacturing since 2016. In fact I recall a meeting with a potential inward investor in 2015 who said no on the basis of an upcoming referendum.

Almost at the end of watching The Wire for the first time (I know where have I been) and it truly is an amazing TV show. The whole ecosystem of law, drugs, community deprivation, education, politics, social justice exclusion, crime and injustice, media - itā€™s just so expansive. Love it.

(Some) America(ns), what have you done?

Sunday #dogsofbluesky

Ouch Nottingham Forest. Fair play to Bournemouth. šŸ‘ Lots of players had a bad day. Hopefully a blip but we missed Hudson-Odoi today and maybe starting with Morato would have helped. Jota lots of puff but not convinced heā€™s at the level we need. #NFFC

Now do Aina šŸ™ #NFFC

Bishop who angered Trump with call for mercy says she will not apologize and nor should she. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

www.skysports.com/football/new... Blimey. Not sure how Nottingham Forest can pull this off let alone the PSR implications/wage bill domino effect. Prefer the Murillo/Milenkovic model of recruitment but not going to complain if it happens. #NFFC

Nottingham Forest second in the Premier League just feels right, doesnā€™t it. #NFFC #EVENFO

Itā€™s almost like Elon Muskā€™s formative years were shaped through living in an apartheid system. Elon Musk pens German newspaper opinion piece supporting far-right AfD party www.theguardian.com/world/2024/d...

Merry Christmas #dogsofbluesky

Nottingham Forest just canā€™t stop winning away. #NFFC

The reform planned in the Get Britain Working WP for Jobcentre Plus is a bit of a mess really. The paper articulates the need for local services reflecting local needs very well but then presents a new universal employment and careers service offering all things to the market. Itā€™s very problematic.

Reading through the Get Britain Working White Paper, Iā€™m a bit surprised that there isnā€™t more of a focus on Individual Placement and Support (IPS) beyond ā€˜severe mental healthā€™. IPS has already been expanded into primary care across a number of areas, for physical and mental health conditions.
