Buzzing City absolutely walloped the reds there. Justice for the other 88 league clubs who arent allowed to compete with the cartel (Liverpool, Utd, Arsenal, Chelsea). Sat on their throne, finding ways to ensure other clubs cant compete (see Villa, Newcastle recent examples)

So finding a petrol station on google maps thats a touch cheaper but 10 miles away is helping people 😂😂🤦‍♂️. Cost yourself an extra £3 to save £2.40 for a full tank. Country is fucked with this whopper in charge.

I know people are worried about fuel prices. And I get it. You get to the pump, watch the numbers climb, and wonder why it's costing so much more than it used to.
 
The reality is that global events are pushing up costs, and families here at home are feeling the impact.
 
But I won't accept that there's nothing I can do to help.
 
That's why from today, you'll be able to see petrol and diesel prices on Google Maps, compare nearby stations and find the cheapest option before you fill up.
 
It's a small change, but if there's a practical way to help people keep more money in their pocket, I'll do it.

This is one of the worst tweets I have ever seen. Political points scoring despite being written to 3 times by UKGC/OSR for misuse of official statistics and then, on the back of this, bare faced lied in parliament when Esther McVey raised it.

We’ve been talking about the desperate need for a National Care Service today.

At the same time Entain Group release a video suggesting people with dementia should spend more time in betting shops.

Madness.

Absolutely spot on.

Either Matt knows this and completely ignores the reality, or he is utterly clueless about how everything joins up for racing. Either way, its not a good look for someone who wants to influence policy and claims has racings best interests at heart.

Genuinely not sure what this plan could involve. If shops close, the huge hit to racing will come via loss of media rights payments and that has nothing to do with the levy. Re the levy, it already makes Racing an expensive product for operators - if you make it more expensive it will just end up with racing becoming a less competitive product and turnover (and therefore media rights) will tank.
