  1. Mbappe Has there ever been a better World Cup final than this?
  2. It’s not just the Jinx. The coverage on ITV is finger nails down a chalkboard awful. It’s bloody annoying they get to chose almost the entire knockout section.
  3. That is factually wrong. She was procured to have sex with him and was under 18. She was also likely groomed. Paying a person for sex below aged 18 and grooming are both illegal here in the UK
  4. So in modern Britain it is now an arrestable offence to protest the divine right of the sovereign, apparently not because we are some authoritarian feudal throwback, but because its ‘disrespectful’ and ‘disruptive’ to protest while her cold dead corpse is being hauled around the country so people can gawp at the coffin. I don’t know what’s worse out of how casually reasonable freedom to protest is being cast aside or the dumb ass justifications being offered up to defend it.
  5. The wanted to minimize negative publicity in down market tabloids show their respect at such a sad time..
  6. Same. I quite like miserable music My mum used to say can’t you listen to something a bit more uplifting when I was a teen many decades ago.
  7. They also had analysis for the West Ham game at the same time with a suitablely somber looking Joe Cole providing his insights. It was just the United game which is a bit odd.
  8. Yeah. Was more thinking the ceremonial bit where the arch bishop pops a crown on his head while we all clap, cheer and say long love the king (even though he is already sort of long lived)
  9. At a guess the what happens now is a period where it’s compulsory to be sad and all fun things will be banned. Her son rather than mourn will be required to go all over the shop to deal with scripted ceremonials of faux grief while he deals with his real loss. She is then buried. Then he becomes King. About right? I am sure I have seen this episode before.
  10. BBC1 with whole day just devoted to news. But news that carries no news other than very old lady dies. It’s frankly insane. Doing my head in already.
