    I wasn't going to post it yesterday because it was boring, but the last designer to alter the flag on an England kit is quoted here admitting to putting a deliberate political spin on it. Honestly, for people who normally see corporate conspiracy around every corner you lot are being remarkably dense about this.

    'Playful interpretation' was obviously their idea of a soft launch, and then the frankly disingenuous 'explanation' linked to 1966 doubled down on that. Plausibly deniable inclusivity. It's not something Nike or the FA should really be dabbling in, as evidenced by the reaction, ridiculous as it might be. At least the last guy is/was open about what he was up to, and you can agree or disagree with that from whatever perspective you want.

    I will say that this sentiment:

    "come to represent a particular type of bloody-minded person - usually with a degree of what we might call aggressive patriotism"
    Needs to fuck right off. I'm not a "flag nonce", but those that are should be free to fly their own nations flag without being branded a racist thug. We grant people from every other nation on God's green earth this right, it shouldn't be taboo to fly and England Flag in England.

    Not a chance this youngest ever PM that's succeeding him is 37. He looks about 60. Christ knows what he'll look like after a period in office, which often seems to age leaders significantly.

    It should also be noted that that is quite a funny picture of Varadkar.

    I couldn't believe he was under 40 either. He's, some drip and popular enough that he only got elected in his own constituency last time round on the 15th count. More of the exact same to come, they'll be forcing people out of their homes to let welfare immigrants in next.

    Some Facebook page posted a meme of the Nike cross flag so I took a quick look at the names of all the "angry reacts" and as expected it's the most gammon mix of names you've ever seen.

    John Edwin Taylor
    Alan Ramage
    Peter Finch
    Bob King
    Billericay Town FC
    Nigel Lowe
    Alan British (lmao)
    Kenny Lord
    etc...

    Man, I was expecting some good old fashioned structural failure due to fatigue. Not a ship taking out the supporting column.

    That's so bad one wonders if it's deliberate. Failing that, mechanical failure?

    The ship must have failed in some way, you can't just mis-steer into a bridge.

    It's shipping. I'm not ruling out a drunk as fuck, sleep deprived Singaporean who was on his mobile watching porn. Or a completely empty bridge (ship's bridge, not the bridge bridge).

    Apparently it was going too fast and lost power.

    They sent in a distress call just before hitting the bridge.

    Crazy to think how fucked Baltimore is by this one ship going off course.

    I can't imagine how much time and money it's going to cost to fix it. Never mind the amount of people that will have died and some that probably went into the water never to be found.

    Think given the time and the fact that the ship sent a mayday they managed to mostly make sure no one was on the bridge.

    Still mad though.

    Going to be one hell of an insurance claim.
