They'll need to repair the rip in the space-time continuum that allows for his limbs to move as much as they do whilst he remains stationary |

Just got round to this, watched the whole thing, I didn't know much about cook's background tbh.
On Marti, he talks about him being much sterner in training than he presents in interviews, Xavi being the affable counterbalance.
He also says his impression is that last season Marti had to concentrate on improving the basics, and that he expects much more progression in terms of how we play next season |

There's something very depressing about it. I've been a Southgate apologist in the past, I've really enjoyed seeing the modern England team play with some freedom and bravery. But now, it isn't just that we look tactically inept -- I think Neville summed it up well when he said we look very basic, making a series of single passes and no patterns -- it's that there seems to be a return of that malaise hanging over the team, like no one wants to be there. Bellingham in particular, sensational 15 minutes against Serbia aside, looks like he'd rather be anywhere else. |

I literally never watch premiership football, so don't know half the players at this point or have a preconception of TAA midfield role. But it didn't work on Sunday, and that area looks to be a weakness for sure.
I did end the game thinking Gallagher might be a better partner to Rice against stronger opposition.
It was quite noticeable how one sided we were in terms of attacking threat too, Tripper and Foden didn't work, potentially because Trippier lacks the legs to get up the pitch and Foden wants to come inside. He looked lost to me, unsure of where to be or what his role was. |

As a dad with two young girls I assure it's not the results I want. |

See for me, I haven't found the time to become a climate scientist, so I defer to the judgement of people who have on this one. |

Starmer has made it very clear that he will simply grow the economy. |

Regarding the Green Party and HS2:
I spent a brieft period as a member in 2008 or so, and there is a wide spectrum of members, from ecosocilaists to NIMBY-preservationist types. The Green Party has a uniquely decentralised model, which is admirable in manner ways, but does mean messaging can be muddled. As I understand it the opposition to HS2 is specific to a short section that passes through some particularly ancient forest or something, and is a concession to that fragment of the party. Under a different Party structure I suspect the support for HS2 would be less ambiguous, as it is clearly a net benefit and exactly the kind of infrastructure project a progressive country that takes climate change seriously should be doing. |

Sometimes I wonder how the country got into such a mess. Then i see people are describing a piddling increase in taxation in order to fix public services as Marxism. |
