City bidding £120mil for a player Newcastle had to sell to comply with FFP while still having not had a single punishment for 115 charges. On the day Everton are punished yet again for one overpayment that only occurred because of the War in Ukraine. Football has become a farce

Wow.......simply bonkers!
With less than a week to go before the tournament starts tickets available for the vast majority of blocks for England’s first World Cup match against Croatia on FIFA’s resale website. FIFA’s commission is 30% on each ticket, so,it between buyer and seller.

"If we lose test cricket, we will lose the cricket we truly know. History remembers legendary test careers not franchise triumphs. Cricket without Tests has no real meaning. Winning a T20 World Cup may put you at the centre of world cricket today, but whether that is truly good for the game remains open to debate. Test cricket earned its name because it challenges every quality a player possesses, technique, patience, temperament,endurance and character. It is not simply about clearing the ropes for entertainment; It is about battling through pressure, adapting to conditions, and surviving the physical and mental demands of five intense days" - Sir Ian Botham

The Prime Minister is a national distraction. Millions of people are struggling to pay the bills, but Boris Johnson and his government are spending the whole time mopping up their own rule-breaking, sleaze and deceit. He’s got to go.

Entered Manchester Airport drop off. Parked up. Got bags out for sister in law. Gave hug and said goodbye. Drove to exit. Entire time between the two ANPR cameras? 85 seconds. Cost? Five QUID. For less than a minute and a half of parking! Criminal.

The nut zealotry of Ed Miliband A new occasional series — No 2 At a time when global supply chains are vulnerable and we should be producing much more of our own food, E Miliband has today approved Springwell Solar Farm. It will cover seven square miles of prime Lincolnshire farmland. And the solar panels are likely to come from China (so much for green manufacturing jobs). Mili-Madness on stilts.
The nut zero zealotry of Ed Miliband. A new occasional series. [feel free to add]. Fertiliser prices and shortages are soaring because the petrochemical industries of the Gulf states are major global suppliers but the Strait of Hormuz, through which they export, is closed. Not good for the spring planting season. Undaunted the UK will introduce a levy on imported carbon-intensive fertiliser as part of its costly obsession with cutting emissions, even when the impact is slight. At a time when we should be increasing food security government policy is to penalise farmers further.

What is the global price of gas? Is it NBP or Henry Hub? When you discover the answer you will also discover there is no global gas price, unlike oil. Also, the more oil/gas we extract ourselves, the better for our balance of payments = able to run economy at faster rate. Also, the better for government revenues = more public spending or tax cuts. Also, creates more high-paid jobs = more tax revenues. Also, extracting oil/gas from North Sea a lot cheaper than shipping in from abroad. Also, a lot fewer emissions. Now, what is about the benefits of more North Sea drilling you still don’t understand? If still puzzled just ask the Norwegians, who are fellow social democrats but unlike Starmer-Reeves-Miliband Labour have a firm grasp of energy economics.
It doesn't matter where the gas we buy has been drilled. The UK North Sea, the Norwegian North Sea, Denmark or Qatar. We pay the global market price.

A measure of how cricket has changed - 253 playing 246 was the exact score in the ODI World Cup final in 1987
