Absolutely farcical that this guy was prosecuted for an act that was clearly unintentional.
CCTV footage has been released showing the moment a Maidstone fan fell from the top tier of a stand at Ipswich Town's ground.
John Ryan was found not guilty of assault by beating and not guilty of causing actual bodily harm.

A partial Tory recovery that still results in a terrible GE defeat is exacting what Labour need. Keep up the good work Kemi - your appeal to 100k+ earners and millionaires will win gain you dozens of seats at the next election - and not much else.
Fascinating article by @ShippersUnbound on the state of the Tories coming up to two years into Kemi Badenoch's leadership. Are the Tories deluding themselves as an insider reveals membership has fallen below 100,000 for the first time post-1945?

The funny thing about Stratford International: it’s not international. That needs to change.
Bringing cross-Channel rail services to Stratford would boost jobs and £1.3 billion in tourism spending. I’m working with the government to get it on track.

A large proportion of the Lib Dem parliamentary party are one nation Tories who have simply joined the vehicle which carted them to Westminster.
Brexit achieved some amusing by products
Another one for the give Keir time he’d have turned it around crowd. 🌹
NEW: What happened in Holborn? Some constituency polling to help us understand a bit more.
TLDR: loyalty to Burnham + a local candidate won the day; no real sign of tactical voting; Greens never convinced ppl they could win but Polanski not toxic necessarily. @Persuasion_UK

I've listened. You're completely ignoring the fundamental issue. Andy Burnham's strategy of re-uniting the Left is working. He's close to breaking 30%. With the right split, tactical voting and greater voter efficiency, that's all he needs.

Interesting insight from one of the pro-Palestine Green Party chats. One activist suggests Zionism is Racism not going down too well on the by-election doorstep.

The Tory Bayeux Tapestry is very funny and a great skewering of most of the main characters, apart from Angela Rayner who looks absolutely iconic in every image
Tories appealing to 0.2% of the population with their policies.
It’s almost as if they desire to lose 😂

EXC: Zack Polanski asked another candidate to run in his place in the Holborn and St Pancras by-election.
Polanski twice attempted to convince Andrew Feinstein to run for the Greens, The Telegraph has been told.
Feinstein stood as an independent in 2024 against Keir Starmer winning 19% of the vote.
It was only after Feinstein rejected Polanski that he put himself forward to run. Publicly, Polanski has said he is ‘proud and honoured’ to stand adding that he ‘loved this place’.

Indicative of where cricket is, a game increasingly populated by mercenaries and soul-selling charlatans simply content to participate in an empty roadshow to collect a cheque. Telling that a few years ago, Lees was opening the batting for us in test matches and now he's here
