Convinced at the time it was a try… TMO and CR didn’t even look at it! Photo does seem to confirm… will watch replay when I’m home! @BathBytes @SCutlerIFA

A near identical challenge on Alfie last weekend, didn't even merit a penalty 🧐 🙃

BREAKING NEWS
“Furious” Starmer was not told local elections had taken place yesterday.
The PM claims civil servants kept him in the dark until this morning.
He has ordered an enquiry into why the elections had gone ahead without his knowledge.
“I thought we’d cancelled them” he told Sky News.

Apparently no head shot there… and player then scored a while later! To rub salt in wounds he then got MOM… bravo!
Bath were their own worst enemy with the amount of silly mistakes made so result wouldn’t have changed, however it would have been a more level playing field!

Congrats Bordeaux, deserved winners! Irrespective of poor decision making by ref and non-existent reviewing by the TMO, who were shocking! Bath just not composed enough, and error strewn for much of the match allowing Bordeaux to seize the opportunity. Not to be sadly!

Scoreline does not reflect Bath’s endeavours though, team gave all… awesome effort @BathRugby and one hell of a ride in the Champions Cup this season. 🔵⚫️⚪️💗

I'll tell you what I don't like, Darren. I can't speak for everyone, but these are my thoughts…
I don't like a tax burden at its highest level since 1948, under your government and the last, producing the weakest growth in a generation. And worsening public services to boot.
I don't like a 46% hike in the minimum wage for under-21s in three years that's helped push UK youth unemployment to 16.1%, above the eurozone average. I want young people paid more, earned through growth, not handed down by decree that squashes the rungs above them and tells a skilled forty-year-old their two decades of graft are worth precisely the same as someone walking through the door on Monday morning.
I don't like industrial electricity prices that are the highest of any IEA country reporting. Full stop. UK steelmakers pay 40% more than their French competitors. You don't build a future of advanced manufacturing on those numbers.
I don't like a planning system that takes longer to consent a pylon than to build one, business rates that punish high-street enterprise, and employment costs that turn every hire into a risk.
I don't like watching world-class British research get commercialised in Boston and Palo Alto because the capital, the talent and the regulatory patience aren't here. They're fleeing.
I don't like long-term borrowing costs at their highest level in over 25 years, eating into every budget for schools, hospitals and defence before a penny is spent.
I don't like the OECD saying that we're going to be the hardest hit economy as a result of a conflict in the Middle East that's got nothing to do with us. All because we've made ourselves weak and vulnerable.
I don't like a government that confuses 'raising money' with 'creating wealth'. Or 'standing against unearned wealth' with taxing to death the people who actually make things happen in this country.
You don't lift children out of poverty by strangling the economy that pays for their schools. You do it by letting Britain grow again. Letting it play to its abundance of strengths.
In this case, I feel the best way is for government to get the hell out of the way.

What is it that the Conservatives and Reform don’t like about a Labour government standing against unearned wealth?
What is it they don't like about raising money for our state schools, our hospitals, our police, and to lift children out of poverty?

335 MPs who voted against referring Keir Starmer to the Privileges Committee.
A list of shame.
Not an ounce of integrity between them.
An advertising blitz will now hit the constituency of every Labour hypocrite on this list. They’ve increased their annihilation on May 7th!
