Private rent in UK now swallows 44% of the average wage. Monthly cost jumps to record £1,385 outside London, £2,736 in the capital. Lack of social and affordable housing, no rent controls. Profiteering creating poverty/despair, stifling economic growth. theguardian.com/money/2025/oct…

Chansiri has exploited a loyal working class fan base, neglected a historic stadium, squandered assets and disgraced a proud city and generations of Wednesdayites. Too much power concentrated in too few hands. Football has an ownership problem @YesWeCrann @robstaton @AlanBiggs1

One of the World’s oldest football clubs reduced to a half-dead basket case. Direct action is the only way to wrestle Wednesday back from this barmy despot. Time for the fans, @SWFCTrust, @WeAreTheFSA and unions (@The_TUC @PFA) to back a full strike by players and staff. #swfc

“What the hell does Israel need to do more for this Council to act under Chapter VII? Is there a UN charter for Israel that is different from the charter we all have? Tell us, is there an international law for them and international law for us? Do they have the right to kill? And…
