Surely if VAR can’t decide if a player is offside you go with the assistant’s on field decision

After the death of Jason Arday, Will Self asks what happens when newspapers, platforms, editors and audiences become components in a machine nobody admits to controlling.
The public interest is not the same thing as the public being interested.

Andy Burnham to make it harder for people to claim benefits, vows to ‘get serious’ about cutting welfare bill.
Silence on corporate welfare.
Work doesn't pay enough: 37.8% of Universal Credit claimants are in work.
Women will be hardest hit.

The revelation that Sunak has paid £1M in tax in the last 3 years 0.13% of his £720m wealth.
While the average person has paid about £45k or 14%, 100x as much.
Should open your eyes to just how much and how blatantly the rich dodge tax
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
UK taxes are levied on income and capital gains, not net worth. Sunak paid £1.05m in tax on £4.77m income over three years (effective rate ~22%), not 0.13% of wealth. bbc.com/news/uk-politi… instituteforgovernment.org.uk/explainer/weal…

You will never see the media go harder on the “where will the money come from?” question than when a policy is aimed at helping the working class.

What he fails to understand, and naturally so, is that for the other 90% of the season, the variable stuff had gone Hearts' way over and over again
That's just football, that can happen
But the failure to understand the role of variance clearly leads to much Heartache
💔 Craig Halkett has admitted that Hearts’ title heartbreak at Celtic Park still hurts.
He said: “It was hard, because you felt like it was supposed to happen.
“We were angry, not just about the way that game finished but maybe about how the first couple of weeks leading up to it had gone.
“I think it was just a combination of loads of things not going our way. It was hard not to feel a wee bit angry and frustrated. It was a hard one to take and it’s probably one of those runs that you never really get over.
“During that last week of the season, everything that could have gone against us did go against us.”

For a long time now I've called for a change to fiscal rules so that we can borrow to invest.
We also need look at a #WealthTax. The top 50 richest families in the UK now hold more wealth than the poorest half of the population (34 million people).

🚨 WTF?! Expert Gary Stevenson drops a massive bombshell!
He confirms ultra rich elites make a staggering $3 MILLION a week in untaxed passive income!
He reveals they intentionally hoard all assets, making housing completely unaffordable for the working class!
