Indeed. Or he's given up arguing.

VAR sends Germany out. Amazing

I also fully agree and will once again take the time to point out that I had very little issue with Blair and Neoliberalism while it appeared to be working, and am only now annoyed at it because it has allowed populism in through the backdoor to make off with all common sense and the futures of our children. Blair is right about the US needing to value a strategic alliance with the 'West', and that they should actually be pushing for a stronger EU rather than a weaker one. Where I think he's wrong is in thinking that Trump will care about any of this. Trump is essentially the personification of populism. Also at no point have I considered you to be a neoliberal cunt. You're just a man with centrist views, doesn't make you a cunt.

Yeah I saw Sargon announce this a few days ago. It's pathetic but I've always found his views on the EU to be deranged, so it's not entirely unsurprising. It worries me slightly that Sargon is starting to become a political figure in his own right, now organising live events with thousands of people turning up both here and in the US. And he's a fair public speaker. Suspect he'll be running as an MP soon.

I'm lazy. And it stands out more this way anyway

This is pathetic

Apparently Ings is leaving Liverpool. Would he be worth bringing in if Mitro goes?

Taken from the Times: The Conservatives, the party of enterprise, are turning on their own. Sir Craig Oliver, David Cameron’s director of communications, tweeted on Sunday that the Tories saying “f*** business” is like Labour declaring “f*** the NHS” or the Greens shouting “f*** the environment”. Conservative MPs don’t know whether to be angry or depressed. “It’s a nightmare. Corporate madness has descended on us,” says one former cabinet minister ... The mistrust between business and the government is deep and mutual. One senior figure in the City suggests that Mrs May, who will address The Times CEO Summit today, has so little interest in or understanding of business that she should remove the words “First Lord of the Treasury” from the letterbox at No 10 because she has given up on the job of promoting economic prosperity. The cabinet, he says, is held in contempt in many boardrooms because of the lack of seriousness at the top. “There’s a sense that it’s a bunch of amateurs in charge, that the government is run by teenagers obsessed with their own narcissistic ambitions who have no capacity to understand the world as it is rather than how they imagine it to be.” In contrast to Labour, who with John McDonnell as shadow chancellor are “deadly serious” about shaking up the economy, the Tories are seen as “frivolous”, with no answers to the big challenges facing the country. “People are constantly amazed by just how s*** ministers are,” says this corporate source.

Boris Johnson has apparently just claimed that Trump repealed his child separation policy in response to Theresa May condemning it

"We/I have been clear" should be a banned phrase once May is out.

Caroline Lucas on Johnson: The fact that Boris Johnson is set to miss the vote truly underlines his utter spinelessness. He stood against Heathrow as a point of principle - and has now fled the country to save his job, and maintain his disastrous political career. Boris Johnson said he’d lie down in front the bulldozers at Heathrow - but instead he’s now bowing out of politics for the day and bulldozing what is left of his own reputation.

I would watch that movie.

So we want £30m, they want to offer £20m. Split the difference, £25m. He probably is worth around that tbh. And I daresay more teams than just Fulham would be interested anyway.

The fuck? Bots are getting scary good at context driven posting.

Which is why we need something big to happen.

Fucking prat.

Germany just won me £50

And now it doesn't matter anyway

I'm stunned that Brazil didn't get that decision Maybe there's some hope for football yet.

FFS man, they set themselves up so that the inevitable fall is all the worse, every single time. Adam Johnson, Ellis Short, 'inevitable' promotion from the Championship, etc. I mean, are fans of any other clubs except ours, even talking about Sunderland? Most of them have probably forgotten that they exist.

They do have that Uruguayan billionaire behind them now mind. I daresay he'll end up in full control of the club out of absolute necessity in 3-5 years.

Decent piece on Argentina's failings here: https://www.theguardian.com/football/2018/jun/21/argentina-messi-shambles-croatia-world-cup

She has to be the least photogenic world leader of all time, surely?
