    I think he's a decent presenter and I'll miss watching him especially euros and world cups. I always liked andy gray and richard keys on sky they were brilliant but one got sacked and the other jacked. Then you have jamie carragher who spits at a girl out of his car and keeps his job. Strange world.

    Donald Trump thinks Palestine is free. In that once he’s helped Israel clear out the undesirables he gets it for nothing.

    " Following WWII, you also had the UK handing over India, and bringing about Pakistan. And later, came Bangladesh. "

    Tbf YT, the discussions over how to decide the future had been going on for several years, the various parties involved could not agree. Its easy to criticise Attlee for pulling the date of leaving forward, but there seemed no prospect of an agreed solution.

    Baffled by this story. Lineker was finishing MOTD after next weekend anyway. Next year's FA/World Cups were a long way off, and he was always going to speak his mind once out of the weekly MOTD routine. So nothing new/surprising about this. Still, good story, eh?

    I wasn’t criticising per se. More of an observation that we have played a big part in the makeup of these nations and yet now it appears we are happy (in the case of Palestine) to watch it be exterminated.

    I don’t know about the rest of the world but it’s scary how quickly they bought influence in the Labour Party.
