Name an athlete whose real name is so good it sounds made up. Not a nickname, the actual name on the birth certificate. Any sport, any era.

Manchester City cheated Premier League rules, the Commission found. Did it also cheat HMRC? We've examined the decision and leaked Mancini documents. We think City likely failed to pay £12m in tax. There should be a criminal investigation. Thread:

Went down a Charles Dance rabbithole and now can't get over the fact that his dad was born in 1874.

I met Cilla Black once - she sat at a table I'd reserved and refused to move. Her spiteful arrogance was astounding.

Without a doubt “Brazil’s Protestant work ethic is why they lost” is my favorite World Cup documentary discourse
Brazil was better when their players were womanizers, drunkards and slightly out of shape. In other words, when they were behaving like Catholics— letting the power of friendship and good fun do the heavy lifting. Evangelical Protestant sterilization has flattened their ball, ruined their samba, and obliterated their swag. World historic aura loss.

They’re calling it VAR-a-Lago
Something FIFA appear to have completely underestimated when signing off Balogun decision is the current U.S. administration will always prioritize claiming credit over how something is seen optically, and if (in their eyes) it winds up buttoned-up Europeans, then even better.

Your Cash ISA tax free amount is going down from 20k to 12k. Unless of course, you're over 65. Then it stays at 20k. Also over 65s can keep transferring non-cash ISAs into cash ISAs. You can't. Why is everything in British politics like this?
🚨 NEW: The UK has announced that interest on cash in Stocks and Shares ISAs will be taxed at 22%
