Why did Tory MPs think Kemi Badenoch would be good at this?
As in the party that Marine Le Pen said are beyond the pale?
Nick, don't be thick.

It gets a v brief mention tomorrow
It's been a mess for a while. European club football was underdeveloped (for various reasons) and I think the early expansions in the 90s boosted the competition but when they went to 4/5 per big country and squeezed out the smaller champions they made the whole GS pointless and devalued everything
Interestingly (at least to me) the first European Cup wasn't a draw. It was a pre-determined bracket decided by a French newspaper that sceptics (& me) would say was rigged to give the French champions an easier path to the final.
Plenty of non champions in that too. Only 7/16 had won their leagues
I'd call it a rant tbh. Statement makes it sound more dignified than intended. They're just bell ends
On this week's The Ground Jewels podcast @sportsorla.bsky.social nominates Croke Park.
