24 Hour News - Euro 24

Can anyone follow the news anymore? during Euro 2024, after the UK elections, when I want to know the latest selections, In Gareth Southgate’s team, In Sir Keir Starmer’s team, with everyone analysing, prophesying, what this or that might mean. Even if we heard those songs before, all the pundits are oh so cock-sure, everyone thinks they know the score, the truth is nobody ever knows, until that final whistle blows. Everyone’s riding their luck, their chance, pick up a history book, take a glance, they never write any of them in advance. That 2-1 defeat hurt, but it was no disgrace, after all England, still claimed second place, so I will congratulate Spain, and celebrate how far our team came, give our manager and players, respect that's due, that's the least, that anyone can do. The news from the US, just got even worse, it's time that I returned to my verse, or read the latest on Port Talbot steel, then go back to following Labour's New Deal.
