I dislike how this topic spirals into just misogyny in the comments yes, women's football is currently not as developed/watched as men's (thanks to the 50yr ban) but it's been growing steadily in viewership & profitability. Just cuz YOU don't watch it doesn't mean nobody does

🚨 27-year old Aitana Bonmatí, who is the highest-paid female footballer in the world, earns a salary that is around 260 times lower than that of Cristiano Ronaldo, who is about to turn 41-years old. Just one month of Ronaldo's salary would equal 21 and a half years of Bonmatí's…

As @John_Stepek and o have been saying on the podcast for years. This isn't a loan system. It's a horrifically high graduate tax that destroys living standards - esp given how low U.K. incomes now are.

💸🧑‍🎓 England’s student loans were sold as “the best debt you’ll ever have”. Now they’re acting like a stealth tax, pushing marginal rates above 70% and holding back growth. Read up about the £500bn problem facing Britain in this essay ⬇️ telegraph.co.uk/business/2026/…

The biggest fear among Trump’s allies is that the EU will begin regulating American tech giants and restrict the free transfer of data to the United States. And that is exactly what the EU should do. There is no reason to hand over this valuable resource to the U.S. for free.

I just read this huge truth: Be as picky as you want, because being alone has never destroyed a woman. Being with the wrong man has.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but England has not built a single new reservoir since 1992, despite population growth of 10 million. We chose to do hosepipe bans instead.

Gas prices would have fallen dramatically if we had allowed shale gas production in Britain.

Ed Miliband says thinking gas prices will fall is a "big gamble". 🎲I'd take that bet. Very happily. Gas prices will rise. And they will fall. What won't fall is the sky high offshore wind price (higher than the current gas power price) Ed has signed us all up to for 20 years.

Circular argument The UK government says 'gas is expensive' But why is it expensive? Because of 'Carbon Tax' And who imposes the Carbon Tax? The UK government. QED

An exasperated @afneil tries to explain to a net zero proponent that the latest wind farm boasting by Ed Miliband is actually a gigantic con. The sheer commercial infantalism of the net zero zealots is depressing.

You have no idea what you’re talking about. Like ministers. The £147/MWh for gas is an out of date assessment. Latest (2025) figure is £107/MWh. But much of that includes the carbon tax government slaps on gas. A policy choice which could easily be reversed. Strip that out…

No amount of budgeting or not eating at restaurants will make up for the fact that we do not make enough money anymore for this economy.
