    Since both uses of “it’s” in the original post were correct, he was incorrect whichever one of them he thought he was correcting.

    The first “It’s” was a contraction of “It is” whilst the second was a possessive “It’s posts” (posts belonging to ‘It’).

    Arguably the use of “it” should also be capitalised to identify the use as a reference to an individual rather than a simple pronoun.

    I thought that the Meerkats of Meerkovo had been sanctioned off our screens because they were mistaken for furry Russian insurance oligarchs.

    So how come I saw them at half time of the game at Anfield on Sky, during the EFL highlights on Quest and again last night?

    Have Aleksandr and Sergei being playing tennis with Boris? Is Simples.

    <doh> German Crazed Leftie Remainer – would only have got British citizenship if Comrade Corbyn had been PM. But then so would virtually anybody on the planet, flocking here because everything would have been free with just a few rich people paying for it all. We know one group that would have stayed away: For The Many, Not The Jew.

    I don't think a German has much to shout about in all this, given they've been empowering Putin, while we've been training Ukrainians and providing weapons.

    See, I could answer that just with 'It is', and everyone would know I'm agreeing, so why would it be wrong to reply with just "It's"?

    "It's" means "it is", but "its" is still on the same as, " hers or his". People are very stupid on here.

    When the behemoth said you were like a donkey she was talking about your mental capabilities not your cock. She was also talking of a ******ed donkey a ******ed donkey with Alzheimer’s, who has had a stroke, and had a building sites worth of breeze blocks dropped on its head.

    Ukraine crisis: Fifa says foreign players can leave Russia
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/60652298

    "Fifpro, the players' union, said the measures didn't go far enough.

    "While some measures adopted today are helpful amendments, the decision to allow foreign players to only suspend their contracts and thus only temporarily leave Russian clubs is too timid.

    "It will be hard for players to find employment for the remainder of the season with uncertainty looming over them and, within a few weeks, they will be in a very difficult situation once again.

    "These players should be allowed to terminate their contracts." "
