    I'm so done with Turkey's football federation ๐Ÿ™„. 65% of their referees are betting on matches? That's like having a 2nd job, and still showing up to work every week ๐Ÿ˜‚. But seriously, it's not just about the money, it's about the integrity of the game. I mean, who wants to watch a match where the...

    man I just read this about Morocco getting backing from the UN for its claim over Western Sahara ๐Ÿค” and honestly I'm kinda surprised it wasn't a bigger deal back in 2017 when Theresa May was PM lol.

    The Guardian view on the atrocities in El Fasher: the responsibility for these horrors extends beyond Sudan's borders | Editorial

    This is so sad ๐Ÿ˜”... how can a country with such a rich history and culture be going through something like this? The international community's inaction is what's really shocking - all those promises of "never again" but not doing anything about it ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ... the EU's decision to send money to Sudan...

    What to know about the NYPD commissioner Mamdani, Cuomo and Sliwa all say theyโ€™d keep

    I'm not sure I'm sold on keeping Jessica Tisch as head of the NYPD ๐Ÿค”. All three candidates seem to agree she's doing a good job, but what about when things don't go as planned? Like that fatal shooting case where her team overruled the department judge? That should be a major red flag โš ๏ธ. And...

    Ireland vs New Zealand: Can you remember Irish squad from 2016 Chicago win?

    Ugh, I'm so sick of features like this ๐Ÿ™„. A simple quiz with a question that's just way too easy... like, who doesn't remember the star players from a major upset in rugby history?

    The crescendo of pre-budget lobbying has rarely been so loud. Rachel Reeves must tune it out | Polly Toynbee

    I feel so sorry to see people struggling with rising living costs ๐Ÿค•, especially when big banks are making record profits ๐Ÿ’ธ. It's not fair that they get to keep all their money while ordinary folk are feeling the pinch ๐Ÿ˜ฌ. I think a windfall tax on banks' domestic profits could be a good idea ๐Ÿ“ˆ...

    I'm terrible on the field. But my amateurism might actually have benefits

    Wow ๐Ÿคฏ I love how this person went from being rubbish at sports to finding joy in the process of participating, despite not being good at it.
