Afternoon all.
Grim stuff coming out about the 17-year old Farage. Waiting to find black and Asian pupils alone to intimidate them, regular antisemitic bullying, and Nazi salutes. Not a mild issue, whether 17 years old or not.

I don’t usually partake of a wee malt on a Tuesday night, but this evening I have made an exception.

Well, I'm an average England fan and I think it's fantastic news and deserves to be top of the running board.For Scots maybe, I doubt the average England football fan will see it as the main news but the BBC put it as such anyway.So the BBC news main story tonight across the UK is that Scotland have qualified for the football World Cup, not won the World Cup but qualified which England already did anyway, pushing even the Epstein files release vote to no 2 story.Don't be ridiculous
So can we have no more whinging from Scottish nats that the BBC ignores Scotland!
Scotland qualifying for the World Cup is the news tonight and especially the way it was won
I highly doubt Scottish football fans cared when England qualified for the WC but given the BBC have made it the main story they can hardly complain next time a big England football win leads the news at least

Sorry, that was so clearly outside the penalty box. VAR is a total joke.Something is rotten in the state of Denmark's penalty.

My sofa is hiding behind the sofa and I'm behind both.No, its English overconfidence, because most Scots are currently hiding behind the sofa.Denmark delenda est.Is that Scottish Gaelic?

On topic...
This is why the Texas redistricting is so dangerous for the Republicans: it's taking a bunch of districts that were 60:40 to the Republicans last time (thanks to Hispanics swinging Republican), and making more of them, but making them 55:45.
If the Texas Hispanic vote swings back to the Democrats by even half of the numbers seen in New Jersey, then the Republicans could easily end up with a net loss of Congressional Districts.
Gerrymandering is a dangerous game.
