Well it’s the start of the FA Cup 3rd Round tonight.
No better way to celebrate it than the most iconic FA Cup 3rd Round goal of all time.
The great Ronnie Radford with John Motson’s commentary.

To those with short memories:
Between 2014 and 2022, Ukraine held about 200 rounds of talks with Russia.
During this period, 20 cease-fire agreements were reached, all of which were quickly violated by Russia.
None of the 200 rounds of talks or the 20 ceasefires have prevented Putin from launching a brutal all-out invasion of Ukraine on February 24th, 2022.
Those who argue that Ukraine should negotiate with Russia now are either uninformed or misled, or they side with Russia and want Putin to take a pause before an even larger aggression.
We should not and will not fall into this trap.

Today we mark 58 years since the Aberfan disaster - one of the bleakest days in our history.
We will never forget those who lost their lives, most of them children.
The strength shown by the community who faced the unimaginable continues to be a shining example to us all.

Before Brexit the UK was about as rich as Germany, and richer than France.
Now it is much poorer than either, by 2030 we will be poorer than Poland, and by 2040 we will be poorer than all 27 EU countries.
The magic of Brexit.

The Islamic persecution of Christians in Nigeria has reached the level of genocide!
Every year thousands of Christians including women and children are displaced or murdered if they refuse to convert to Islam.
Sadly, no one in the international community seems to care. The media and the UN are silent about this to prevent damage to the image of Islam as a "religion of peace" in the west.
Just like this video, there are countless reports regarding the persecution of Christians in Nigeria. Please don’t look away when you see them.
We must speak up and rise our voices for the voiceless victims of Islamic persecution all over the world!
By raising awareness we can force world leaders to take action and protect the persecuted non-Muslim minorities in Asia and Africa.
So please share this video and keep the persecuted Christians of Nigeria in your prayers.

Time to get rid of the House of Lords.
Change voting to PR.
Join the Single Market.
Nationalise Power and Water.
Do you agree?

Simply getting rid of Brexit that no one wants would solve all of the UK's financial problems and it doesn't require taxing anyone.
So why aren't we doing it?

Two-to-one margin…
Voters know everything got worse with Brexit… when will politicians realise nothing will get better unless they rejoin?!
🔴🔴🔴 New poll shows support for taking a fresh look at Brexit.
Voters believe nearly everything has got worse as a result of Brexit, from the economy and cost of living to the NHS

Look, everyone knows Brexit was a massive mistake.
The Tories realise it was a massive mistake but can never admit the folly of their ways.
Labour know it was a massive mistake but are unable to come clean with the British people.
The dogs in the street know, everyone knows.

All Labour had to do was stick a 2% wealth tax on the richest people in the UK & they would have endeared themselves to the British people for at least a generation or two.
Instead they went after the most vulnerable in society.
Shameful considering their pre-election promises

1979: UK was sitting on a revenue bonanza from North Sea Oil, had a National Debt of just £80bn and owned all it's utilities, transport, infrastructure & millions of social homes.
2024: UK has £2.8Tn national debt & virtually no assets.
Capitalism has destroyed our kids' future

2016: Nigel Lawson, "There may be reasons why the UK may wish to remain in the EU but whatever they are, they are not economic"
2024: "New report reveals UK economy is almost £140billion smaller because of Brexit"
Lawson then said neither Norway nor Switzerland suffered from being outside the EU - both countries are in the EU Single Market
The UK is poorer because we are outside the EU Single Market. Any government that is serious about growth would seek to rejoin the EU Single Market as quickly as possible. The longer we are out of it, the longer it will take for our economy to grow
