I thought Boris was a good Mayor to be honest, or at least London felt a great place to be when he was in charge. What! With all the cronyism, cash spaffed vanity projects and lack of attention to detail for 8 years? It may well have felt good (for a while) but he certainly sowed the seeds where we...

I'm really confused that the SNP are going backwards to Swinney.
Isn't he a failed leader with close association with discredited old guard? Same old, same old!!!

Charge is a formality and the court hearing just to confirm name, address etc iirc

Quite. The case will take an age to come to court as our judicial system is in tatters with under investment for years and thanks to Messrs Grayling and Raab for dismantling it.

BTW I don’t agree that Khan has been useless, compared to what? Boris? Don’t make me laugh, useless cunt of a man who spaffed away millions on pet schemes ( new routemaster , garden bridge….) I’ve spoken to Khan and I’ve heard him speak, he’s a decent man, crap speaker, genuinely humble. These attr...

Saw my fourth robbery in London this year today. My fourth police report closed within 3 hours without an investigation as well Let’s hope people vote sensibly to remove Khan. I can’t imagine anyone doing a worse job than what he’s done to London. It’s almost deliberately bad it’s so negligent Vote...

I wonder where a criminal record of violence against the police will leave him in regards to work permits for France or Japan?

Bloody stupid arse!!!! England rugby star Billy Vunipola has been arrested after a violent incident at a bar in Majorca. The 31-year-old was tasered twice by police at a bar called Epic in Palma at 4.30am on Sunday following calls from security staff. Vunipola, who is 6ft 2in and weighs nearly 20 st...

I had to half watch the game while doing other things, but he definitely did you dirty on at least a couple of occasions from what I saw. Shortly before the Care incident it looked like Lynagh was pretty obviously impeded off the ball while chasing a kick. Potential yellow card for Saints in that. ...

Jonny Gray released by Exeter with immediate effect today.
He's a free agent as he's not signed with anyone else. Bit of a sicknote recently though

Been playing well when I've watched Briz and he's been selected.

Enjoyed the Bath game Exeter do look a touch one-dimensional and they're not quite as fearsome from 5 yards as they once were. Bath's defence held them out a fair few times. I thought Orlando Bailey had a decent outing, some missed kick passes but good decisions and good hands, so good to know he c...
