Please share. 🙏🏻

Last call for this. Am important discussion, but I enjoyed it.

I have one ticket going for the sold out Man from Delmonte gig at the Band On The Wall this Wednesday. Face value of course. Please Repost

Is that the nothingest 'Super Sunday' match ever? Neither team can get promoted/win league/get Europe. No star players. Nothing at all. The EPL equivalent of Richard and Judy.

On LBC this morning, I spoke about why we should be far more worried the power Elon Musk is accruing, especially in light of his Open AI moves. The normalisation of his actions and activity by quite a bit of the US and even UK media is a big part of the problem. www.youtube.com/watch?v=BGnt...

I'm a UK graduate. I did all my schooling in the UK, undergraduate & postgraduate. But I wasn't born here. I came to this country as a child refugee. If you have a shortage of doctors now, it's not the fault of immigrants. It's because of immigrants you have any health service at all. Do better

Excellent first half - come on, England

If you're wondering how we got here, here's 271 hours of I Told You So. If you haven't already, now would be a good time to start (And no, you don't have to watch the TV show to follow along. Most of our listeners didn't.) westwingthing.libsyn.com

The match is tomorrow but I think I have already won from this trip to Paris

Goodbye 2024

The positive I take from this is that losing to them must surely have been the nadir.

NEW: Jimmy Carter, the 39th President of the United States, has died at the age of 100. He was elected in the 1976 presidential election for a single term. He enjoyed a remarkable post-presidency, based on philanthropy. He was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002.

Had the chances - just didn't put them away. Can't say am delighted but an improvement. Gonna be grind to get a winning run going.

About a 10th of the number of Ukrainian refugee children state schools took in without any panicked coverage. Such nonsense.

There are more than 10m children in school in the UK…but, per Times, 3,000 might move to state sector because of VAT rise…so Whitehall is “braced” 😲😲😲 Says a lot about UK media bubble, the way this story is reported. You pay VAT on luxuries. Private schooling is that.

Looking for people who support these clubs tomorrow for a Boxing Day livestream: - Bournemouth - Everton - Fulham - Nottingham Forest - Tottenham - Southampton - Wolverhampton - Leicester City Please tag someone you know and repost to help #reskeet #premierleague

Okay folks. It's December 23rd. If you're out shopping anywhere today (but especially at a bookstore, wherein my experience most lies), there is but one rule: Don't. Be. An. Asshole. Expanded, this rule breaks down in to ten sub-clauses:

That I can't laugh at that pot losing to a team that is not our rival sums up how bad last week was.

Highly unlikely- but we could go above Arsenal tomorrow

Just not happening at the moment - but still in it. More likely to win the ECL than anything. Always darkest before the dawn/(before it goes completely black)

Forza, City!!!! OK- it's Milan but plenty of time to get to Turin

Pretty good the last 25 mins. Didn't think we would be in it at HT, given the first 15 mins. All to play for

How many years have we had of televised football, and commentators still believe that empty seats just before half time mean that fans are leaving the ground, rather than queuing for a pint, or just going to the toilet? Drives me mad.

Word of the day is ‘quiddler’ (19th century): one who pays great attention to trivial matters as a way of avoiding the important ones.

Zuckerberg owns Facebook, Instagram, Threads, and WhatsApp. Jeff Bezos owns the Washington Post. Elon Musk owns Twitter/X. When multi-billionaires take control of our most vital platforms for communication, it’s not a win for free speech. It’s a win for oligarchy

WARNING: The city account on here is NOT an official account. The post they have put up today about Kyle Walker is a scam. The post is from 2022 on “X” and the link they use is for a personal PayPal account. DO NOT DONATE. Account and post reported.

The only reason I waited so long to leave Twitter. Please follow Auschwitz Memorial. They only had 1.5 million followers on Twitter and were constantly losing followers. Their history is important to share. Let’s get them to 2 million on Bluesky

It’s time to bring back an old school Twitter classic. It’s #FollowFriday! It would be great to build a big City community ahead of the return of the Premier League next weekend. It’s simple. Repost this post and follow everyone who does. Start using the hashtag and follow anyone using it.
