    Another story I read concerning Fort William F.C. I always looked out for their result hoping they would at least draw a match. They usually lost by anything from 4-0 to 10-0.Now they are out of their Scottish league to ? and their Asian manager is trying to save them.Amazing that they regularly turned up for a beating!!!!This game is so amazing.We have the Man City's buying every good player they can at one end and Fort William at the other trying to field a team!!!!.....and lately the actor buying his Wrexham..........!

    Can everyone stop electing fascists, please? Social media has a lot to answer for.

    Anybody want to see a false flag?
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-63032790

    "A video posted online by state investigators shows the dead body of the gunman on the floor, wearing a T-shirt with a Nazi symbol and a balaclava."
    Nope. Having seen the obviously NSFW images, this isn't true.
    Somebody's placed a black t-shirt with a crudely drawn Swastika in a circle on his body.
    He's not wearing it at all. It's really obvious that he's not, too. His arms aren't in the sleeves.

    The nutter appears to have been inspired by Columbine.
    He had the shooters' names written on his guns, as well as the name of that school.
    He's being repurposed for Putin propaganda. What a ****ing scumbag.

    He thinks he'll still have that job in late November? Ambitious.

    Guaranteed both Truss and Kwarteng are holed up in Downing Street absolutely ****ting the markets at the moment.

    I reckon they expected a dip in the pound but nothing like this. The Gilt market is the real tell though. Complete disaster there, expect interest rates to hit 6% by March.

    Given the mess, they have two options - either to row back from tax cuts but no fcking way they'll do that. Which leaves option 2 - I'm guessing that "growth plan" will announce spending cuts, if they don't announce it before then. They'll then claim that was part of the plan all along.

    Is that the special rates being pulled?

    They'll announce new rates if that's the case. Fixed rates jumping from 2/3% to 7/8% probably.

    Some UK lenders have taken new mortgages off the table in response to turmoil in British funding markets.

    Halifax, the UK's largest mortgage lender, says it will temporarily withdraw all mortgage products that come with a fee.

    "As a result of significant changes in the cost of funding, we're making some changes to our product range," a Halifax spokesperson said in a statement.

    Halifax, part of Lloyds Banking Group, says there will be no change to its product rates and that it continues to offer fee-free options at all product terms and loan-to-value levels.

    Virgin Money says it is temporarily withdrawing all mortgage products for new customers at 20:00 BST, according to an email sent to brokers.

    Skipton Building Society has taken its new mortgage business product range off the market with immediate effect, it told brokers in an email.
