A penalty. I'm pretty sure you're not allowed to get a free foul in even if you're benefiting from the advantage.

Yeah but then they'd have to openly admit that they don't understand the laws of the game. Claiming it was about hand-position is subjective enough that they can mostly avoid humiliating themselves.

Nothing, it's just that "deliberate" is not relevant to the handball rule any more. Whether he did it on purpose is neither here nor there. If Bernardo Silva handballed it then it should be a free-kick to Liverpool. If the ref played advantage then it should have ended with the TAA handball.

The Premier League are saying that it's not handball because his arm was in a natural position. I think they're just making up an excuse because they fucked up and they know it.

Horrendous decision in the Liverpool v City game. Clear handball from TAA not given by VAR. The red line is the attacker. It clearly shows him offside. The shoulder and toe of Dier were furthest forward and they were both looked at and both behind the attacker. Remember, perspective makes the...

The lines they use, as imperfect as they are, did show him to be offside. They checked against Dier's toe and shoulder to make sure too. Well, at least I think it was Dier if I remember correctly.

I think the fact that Boris had to expel 21 Tory rebels is proof enough that treating the Tories as a homogeneous group doesn't make much sense. And personally I'm not sure that any level of Tory incompetence could ever match Corbyn's wrong-headedness. He is actually a gift to the Tories, as is...

Boris' deal allows for us to negotiate, sign and ratify trade deals with any non-EU nation including the US, but they wouldn't come into force until after the transition period has ended. Barring any extension that would mean a whole slew of trade deals could be in place to come into force on...

I don't think the Brexit Party will do particularly well. I think lots of people will favour them, but will vote Tory anyway to avoid splitting the vote. There are lots of Labour seats that voted by a strong majority to leave on the other hand. I wouldn't be surprised if Hull turned blue this...

So you admit that you don't respect the referendum result because it was Leave that won and not Remain, but you're not sure which goalposts you're moving? Yeah I see what you mean, that's a real head-scratcher...

I've already explained to you that the intelligibility assessments alone take about 12 weeks to complete. The preparation in it's entirety took about 13 months last time. Lots of work needs to be done to satisfy the electoral commission that everything is above board. You cannot just churn one...

Why should Remain be on the ballot at all, when the question of remaining has already been answered, and the only ambiguity is the question of how we do it? If there were to be a second binary referendum, surely the questions on the ballot paper should be Deal or No Deal, not Deal or Remain.

The reason people think he's done a better job than May is because it's self-evident. He's secured a better deal than May and forced the EU to make concessions where she could not (or would not). The fact that he's a Brexiteer and actually wants to leave the EU in a meaningful sense is...

You said that the Tories gave us Brexit. They didn't. They gave us a referendum (much to their credit) and the people gave us Brexit. I've said nothing at all to suggest that I don't accept that May is a Tory. Her negligence however is much more to do with her being a Remainer, as evidenced by...

I mean, you literally just did, but OK. 1. Brexit was given to us by the people, fucked up by a Remainer, improved by a Brexiteer, and then blocked by Remainers. Worse still, those Remainers are now conspiring to block it entirely. They don't seem to be above colluding with a foreign...

Perhaps you could elaborate.

Attempt to substantiate this claim. Go on. I dare you. May's deal kept us is in a position where the EU could keep us in a customs union without the ability to negotiate free trade agreements with the rest of the world in perpetuity. It tied us to EU regulations that we had no power to control...

Keeping No Deal off the table was moronic, as has been previously explain numerous times, and has indeed been demonstrated by the threat of No Deal helping Boris get a better deal than May. Boris did not break the law regarded prorogation, nor was it suggested anywhere in the ruling that he...

Parliament forced Boris to ask for an extension. Parliament didn't force May to ask for an extension. Those are the facts. There's nothing astonishing about the public viewing Boris differently to May when he has quite clearly acted differently to May. She effectively behaved as a Remainer...
