Yes i was. ...In both halves. I was drinking Abbot's with lemonade in the first, and Kronenbourg in the second. In-fact, in the previous greatest game i ever saw, against Liverpool i drank a gallon and a half of red wine.
But you. ...what did you consume when watching your greatest ever game?

In the spirit of Terry Mac, this Scouser is the second most loved on Tyneside.

A 'united' kingdom will triumph and prosper under a socialist future.
Decent paying jobs for life, equality and the building of bridges. Thriving communities without Whitehall interference, and as a socialist i am not against anyone getting on in life.
It's about us ALL getting it on!

It's almost time for Labour Together to relinquish control to the lesser xenophobe.
If nothing has changed in six months and the fascist is looking genuinely at reasonably priced jackboot fittings, it will be necessary for directional and philosophical change.
The Labour Party must evolve.

FINALLY - Ask anyone in Glasgow (especially under the age of 95) to sing 'DISCOLAND' to you, and if you can't believe that passers by would join in like a flash mob, you're deluded. Perhaps THE most deluded person that ever walked a Glesga' street.
Here's the album. ..don't forget the claret! ✌️

The studio version was always an event as opposed to any sound engineer live version trickery. ...What i mean is, with a decent pair of extra-bass headphones and a bottle of claret you're all set for a journey into the mind of the ultimate working class Scots poet!

Good chatting to you about this CAFCA. Hopefully chat again soon. Sorry, but i need to head off. Respects to you and to the wonderful Mr Sikka (long time follower and admirer of his political leanings).
Best wishes and regards to you both..✌️

I am aware that under the Conservative government (Rishi Sunak), the way inflation is calculated was altered to mask over their failed and chaotic fiscal policies.
Would you entertain the idea that VAT on school fees is therefore politically motivated, similarly to Rishi fiddling UK inflation?

I did read Mike's piece earlier this morning. ...and did wonder why he was pushing the narrative that private school fees are partly responsible for rising inflation in the UK. Didn't you?

Mr Sikka posted that the price of food, energy, water, rents, internet, phones are rising at a much higher rate, hitting the less well-off the hardest. ...was your comment to offer a counter argument?
Perhaps you're suggesting those who pay private school fees are suffering greater hardships?

It won't be long hitting the mainstream news. Yes, he was one of the greatest of all time.

Sad day😢 I have a pair of signed Rick Buckler drumsticks, given to me by Rick himself after playing city hall in Newcastle 1980 - Loved for the best part of my life. Absolute Icon!

''All i can say in conclusion is victory to the miners, victory to the lesbians and gays, victory to the old, victory to the young, victory to the sick, and victory to the working class!''
FINALLY - To the inglorious deafening sound of silence - The only way forward is the triumph of solidarity! ❤️

On the face of it, disabled people waiting 20+ months for emergency tooth extractions at NHS dental hospitals due to zero access with an NHS dentist will mean nothing to the many snake-oil consumers of Clacton-On-Sea.
However there is still hope for the rest of the UK. ...only time will tell!

Prof Alston said he had heard accounts of people choosing between heating or eating, children going to school with empty stomachs, increased food bank use and homelessness, including stories of people who had considered or attempted suicide.

The UN special rapporteur, Professor Philip Alston wrote a damning report in 2018 stating that UK government inflicted great misery on disabled people.
Since that visit, employment figures were seen as encouraging owing to news and media reporters taking on second jobs as Ostrich Impersonators..
