More likely to be after the May local elections than imminently but who knows. I think Rayner is probably the most likely if she wants it, the Labour party membership is unlikely to go for Streeting.
Well, one team put in a heroic performance and were desperately unfortunate, the other not so muchβ¦

In other news, here's the sometime deputy Conservative Prime Minister Michael Heseltine finding the words that seem to be perpetually eluding the present Labour Prime Minister.
Except this isnβt true either. I was 12 in 1976 and went to see Tottenham every other Saturday. It was fine.
Headline "Rod The Mod" Here is an interview with Rod Stewart (International Times No 94 December 17-31 1970)
Q: What do you think about the political situation in this country? R: I think Enoch is the man. I'm all for him. This country is overcrowded. The immigrants should be sent home. That's it.
Rod Stewart tells people to 'give Farage a chance' ahead of Glastonbury Legends performance British rocker claimed that the Reform UK leader is 'coming across well' when asked about the political future of the UK
Rod Stewart declaring we should give Nigel Farage a chance makes absolute sense when you remember his support for Enoch Powell. See this interview with Rod Stewart (International Times No 94 December 17-31 1970).
We are not an island of strangers, but I have become a stranger in my own country
If this is Britain, I no longer recognise what it has become: a country of cruelty, of scapegoating, of hounding minorities and the weak

@robfordmancs.bsky.social This is a quietly disastrous result for the Conservatives. A by-election held in unexplained circumstances in a marginal ward. Reform stands and splits the right.
Itβs obvious that the story here is not Labour just holding on but the split in the vote on the right. This is disastrous for the Conservatives who should have won easily.
A magnificent effort and entirely unexpected after yesterday.
Exactly, and very different from, for example, a 2-0 win with a last minute goal.
And βoffences against military lawββ¦.
Why arenβt we wearing white?
And of course to Come Dancing originally presented by Peter West when he wasnβt covering cricket.
Indeed, over the weekend I finished The Proof of My Innocence and I enjoyed it very much.
Completely agree. Itβs not like there werenβt some very poor performances both last season and earlier this season with more or less full strength teams.
Perversely I think that the injuries have kept him in the job longer than would otherwise have been the case. There were some very poor performances both last season and earlier this season with more or less full strength teams.
Would be nice to see some UK politicians speaking up in support of Canada, which is blameless in this and with which Britain has far closer ties than it does with the US.
Nobody hold their breath.

@lostfootballs.bsky.social Spotted this morning bobbing along the Thames
First time we conceded 6 at home in the league since Christian Gross but it could have been 10 and was totally predictable, with the kamikaze style play that leaves loads of space at the back and has led to 20 defeats in 42 matches.
Waste of a squad whoβll be sick of it themselves.

It was 1978 - happened twice that year- so you were a bit older.
Thereβs a niche group of people my age who are southern Leeds fans.
Chandrasekhar? I remember him as an especially hopeless batsman but a wonderful bowler.
Watching Bob Dylan perform this evening at the Royal Albert Hall was an extraordinary and poignant experience.
