England looking very good again. Kane, Spence, Gordon all outstanding. When has qualifying been this relaxing? The past 15 years? This last campaign has presented zero challenge and I mean that in a bad way. There's something quite wrong with the lack of jeopardy. And they're planning to expand the...

Unemployment has risen.New figures out today show it has risen to 4.8% Maybe making it £750 a year more expensive to employ the average person wasn't a good idea. Lol. It's going to carry on rising. Meanwhile NHS waiting lists are rising again despite Labour pouring £25 bn extra in. Doctors on stri...

Apparently Sky Sports have had to use recorded crowd noise at the darts because of the very frequent chants of “Kier Starmer is a wanker”.

I have a theory that the LLMs type of AI will degenerate over time. It will become increasingly unreliable. It trains itself by scraping text from the internet. As inevitable inaccuracies are scraped and rescraped the model will end up reinforcing inaccuracies until the model is just junk. How can i...

I thought he was outstanding last night.

Brilliant speech today by Kemi. Can we get her in immediately please! We can’t afford four more years of Starmer.

Apparently all Champ matches will be streamed on the Irish Clubber TV channel. I’ve never heard of it. Any good?

No doubt the Beeb will be prompt in reporting how many police were injured tonight and how many of the spineless, jobless omni-cause lot were arrested. No mention of anything yet though. It looked like quite an intense riot at downing street for a school night. "Fiona Smith, 42, told The Telegraph:...

Starmer has realised that he has nothing, hence his ridiculous attacks on Farage. He has woken up to the realities of the bond markets, his awful decisions to splurge money on his public sector union chums, his devastation of our business community and realised he has got it all wrong. Unemployment ...

Europe a bit tired I feel.

Interesting McGinley talking about what has worked for Europe. One point he made was having a Captain who had won at home first, rather than throwing a new captain in. This makes so much sense. We should pick two term captains - home then away. Suggests a new captain next time - Molinari? Going to ...

Tried to watch Starmer on today’s Kuensberg programme. Gave up after 5 minutes. He is impossible to listen to. So dull.

The RFU’s decision to spend big on women’s rugby is surely paying off. The world’s top players want to play in England and TV money will surely follow. It is a cracking game to watch now. Much better than the men’s in many respects.

Just looking at yesterday’s golf, I couldn’t help thinking that the American team are fundamentally lower quality men than the Europeans. Not talking about their golf, just their stature and ability to be good human beings. The Europeans seem decent folk who would be pleasant to spend time with. The...

Well played girls! That was very solid. Hugely well deserved.

The Orange One has arrived to save the USA team, according to Capt Bradley. You couldn’t make this sh*t up.

Is the HAKA even more utterly ridiculous when, after you’ve done it, you’re then totally crap at rugby? I remember playing London New Zealand years ago and them lining up before kick off to do the haka. It was a bit cringe to be honest, more so when they were a bit shit. Jesus. I played for LNZ. Wh...

They're hoping that someday, with all the huffing and puffing and throat slitting, an opposing team might say "no, were not accepting that" and just return to the changing room, maybe? :uhoh: And if a team did that, that would be proof of a team that is chickenshit. They'd never live it down. The h...

england were poor at times today but they in the final.They going to have to play significantly better though to beat canada who on form start as the favourites. They are going to be a lot better for finally playing a pressure game, being in an awkward moment and finally tested. Still expect Englan...

Canada England final. Canada looking the better bet on the semi final form. England making too many errors.

I’m expecting a tight game this afternoon. The French always do well against England.

England and Canada to come through. They have been the best sides and are ranked 1 and 2.

Starmer is hopefully going to be eviscerated during today's debate on Mandelson's appointment and vetting. He didn’t even turn up. He has tried to throw the Foreign Office under the bus. They are saying it’s nothing to do with them and down purely to no 10. Kemi got a big cheer for saying Starmer i...

Has the French player that tried to eat the Irish girl mid-game been banned yet?

There were 3 Man U fans outside my house yesterday. I heard all this noise and saw they were playing football with a poor little hedgehog. I was about to call the RSPCA when the hedgehog went 1-0 up.

England not looking like world beaters so far. Very messy.

Irish scrum might be the difference. Wind has dropped too. They might hold on. Ireland to win a knock out match for the first time?

The biggest compliment I can make for the ABs is that they remind me of the current Wales squad. Lots of huff and puff but no bollocks.

I’m struggling to find a political home atm. I think Brexit was a crazy decision and blame the Conservatives for allowing it to happen. Also Boris’ “fudge business” was the end of the serious Tory party in my view. I think Labour/ SNP/PC/Greens/Libdems/Corbyn have no idea how to make business thrive...

terryfinch

Apparently the utterly useless Starmer tried to sack Ed Miliband from Energy, but he refused to go. This continuing lack of leadership will just encourage the lunatic Labour backbenches to vote down anything sensible he now tries to do. He should call an election as he is screwed.

Ireland playing very predictable rugby. Have they been coached by Andy Farrell?

NZ racing up and squeezing the life out of them. Either keep it tight and run up the middle or dink over the top. Have
