    Attack on London: Hunting the 7/7 Bombers (Netflix)

    I was based at York when this happened as part of the Incident Response Team whose job it was to deploy a mobile comes hub in the event of something like this happening. Was a tense few weeks and followed the news very closely. When the first reports of DeMenzes came out about him jumping the...

    The Welfare Reform Vote

    In my 46 years living in this country I've seen absolutely nothing that convinces me that our political system is fit for purpose, this has been amplified since 2010. The whole system needs a massive overhaul. Sadly the people who have the ability to achieve this will never want to do it and so...

    Football phrases that you absolutely HATE

    Typically managers who used the word "Football" as a generalised comment. Particularly Carrick with his "That's football" comments post match and Agnew with his "Great footballing guy" comment in relation to everyone he dragged along for his disastrous and brief tenure

    It’s time to get Sir Gareth back.

    I'm another one that doesn't get the hate of Southgate. Best guess is people hate being wrong. Most assumed he wouldn't last long after the Big Sam departure and couldn't eat the humble pie when he proved them wrong. We're a country of miserable ***** who whinge when people we don't like do good...

    Clarkson’s Farm - new series

    He's a very polarising figure, with good reason. But his popularity is unlikely to wane as, through a carefully crafted public persona he's thought of as a "man of the people". I find him quite entertaining but disagree with a lot of his politics. I'm no fan of Keir Starmer but found Clarksons...

    Mr Inbetween
