    Rumours of Ferrari offering a swap with Piastri. May yet be some stuff for him to win.

    They did the same for Vettel too.

    San Sebastian is one of my favourite places in the world. Unfortunately it's inhabited by political halfwits.

    There are religious nutjobs on both sides, but only one side constrains them within a functioning democracy. The other is, in itself, a party of terrorists.

    I wouldn't say we're that far yet, but the printing and spending is pretty fudging scary. The addiction all recent governments have had to spending is incredibly dangerous. COVID was a massive fudge up. I don't believe the public would have accepted lock downs if the govt had honestly explained...

    You're right. Before 1967, Israel didn't occupy that land. Then they were needlessly attacked and won the land in a war.

    They have further to the left than "We don't need to balance the books, we can just keep spending"? That's worrying. Starting to hope Starmer turns it around now.

    I backed him because he'd written a lot of political articles and always seemed to be the right side of economic understanding. Turned out what he wrote and what he did were very different things entirely.

    He did fine until COVID. He forgot that he was supposed to protect the economy first and foremost. I'm fine with people who've been in government - showing an understanding of balancing costs with revenue is a significant part of forming any successful government. Being mayor of a city isn't...

    I'm not sure I'd look at someone who's done an unrelated job (with almost opposite pressures) as the best choice for the biggest job in government. The biggest (really the only) job of the PM, with the help of the Chancellor, is getting the economy right. Every single thing Burnham has ever...

    I don't think you've listened to him speak much then. He has no regard for the damage profligate spending you wreak on the economy. He has no understanding that the wealthiest in the country can move/rearrange assets/hire better lawyers than HMRC. He has no understanding of the need to attract...

    They occupy it because the people who had it before declared war on them and Israel kicked their arses. Israel have held on to that land since as nobody has been able to put together a solution for them to stop doing so whilst remaining safe from those who wish them harm.

    Of course businesses are favourable towards him - he doesn't have to do the difficult stuff like feed and clothe the peasants up there. You'd have to be a retard of Khan's level to fudge up being a mayor. His model only works when you only control a poor part of the economy. His model...

    Pitch looked to be calming down a little. Probably will depend on how much the Aussie attack can change things up (like bringing in Stokes) if it goes flat. They have a spinner but it doesn't look like a spin wicket yet and it almost certainly won't last long enough to become one. I certainly...

    Manchester isn't a separate economy, it could never survive without that handouts from the South. You may wish to parrot spurious claims and propaganda from the mayor but the data say otherwise:

    Yep, he's very good at spending everyone else's money. The problem with socialism, is that eventually you run out of other people's money to spend.

    Criminals are trying to play the old school way and they're doing even worse. The Bazball argument is that if the pitch is dangerous and wickets are likely, you're better off with boundaries in the balls in between than singles and dots. If you're getting out quickly, you may as well try and...

    I thought snicko showing anything meant out. First time I've ever seen snicko show a noise and the umpire ignore it.

    He's so bad even Labour can see how economically illiterate he is.
