This lad seems to get a lot of hate online. The reality is he’s a refreshing alternative to the idea that you’ve gotta be dead hard when you’re a kid to gain any respect. More Ryans having a laugh, less aspiring grafters with fragile egos.
Liverpool Women’s Hospital is a true jewel in the crown of the city.
Whatever the facts turn out to be regarding the incident today, allowing divisive rhetoric and unhelpful discourse to create a chasm between us won’t help anybody.
Solidarity always ❤️
Yes. Paddy Pimblett uses his platform to raise awareness for important causes. Boss
He’s also referring to people of mixed heritage as “mongrels”. This is racist & needs calling out.
It’s a common ignorance in loads of lads. Jib it.
Liverpool has a huge problem with knife crime.
In 2013 there were 612 knife related incidents. By 2018 this shot to 1181- almost double.
A complex issue that runs very deep. Trauma, social, economic, and environmental factors play their part. It’s bigger than bad parents
Do us all a favour and leave knives in the kitchen, lads.
Stop taking lemo, too. Seek help if you want it.
It’s not big. It’s not clever. It’s just really sad. It’s okay to have your ego damaged as well. You aren’t obliged by the laws of ‘amnorravinit’ to do anything about it.
Areas like this need huge investment, not an already booming waterfront.
Not many tourists can be found around L8, L7, L11, and L12 to name a few. I suppose this is why these places may not matter so much…

Boris Johnson travelled all the way to Liverpool to observe a drugs raid.
He could have saved precious time and walked to the toilets of Parliament if he wanted to observe a part of the drug chain.
Gong Hei Fat Choi! 🐅 🧧
Happy Chinese New Year!
Liverpool has one of the oldest Chinese communities in Europe. Let’s celebrate all the things we are fortunate to experience because of this ❤️

This is Williamson Square. Smack bang in the middle of town.
I know it’s all a bit depressing but feel like this short clip punctuates my previous post.
A £1.1m metal grid fountain, two bookies, and a few bars. Aspirational stuff in the heart of the gateway to the world.
Struggling to get over the fella applying to be Labour’s candidate for MP in Knowsley reinforcing stereotypes for cheap laughs from people at Oxford by calling Liverpool “the home of petty crime”.
Wonder if this will go down well with the Johns estate…
EXCLUSIVE:
Rishi Sunak is poised to announce minimum strike legislation as soon as tomorrow
It will enable employers to sue unions and sack employees if they refuse to accept
Hearing six sectors covered - NHS, schools, rail, borders, fire, nuclear
A Liverpool man has been found guilty of terror offences. A court heard 20 year old Jacob Graham from Norris Green shared a bomb-making manual online. He was cleared of planning a terrorist attack but convicted of seven other offences, including preparing an act of terrorism.
London centric weaponisation of the suffering of people involved in yesterday’s explosion here, and the unfortunate urge of some locals to condemn an *entire* group of people based on their preconceived prejudices is the last thing Liverpool needs. Let us be better ✊
Evidence of far-right plans to mobilise in Kirkby last night.
Regardless of your concerns, be mindful who you align yourself with.
If you’re mindful and still proceed to stand with them, then you’re standing for the far-right.
No. We don’t need a new dispersal order. We need developers, the council, and urban planners to consider and factor in young people and how they can be included, not just the petit bourgeoise. Money and capital are the issues here. Not kids being kids.
Walkabout around Mann Island to speak to residents and small businesses. Again, large groups swimming in the basin, life belts had all been removed, bottles had been thrown earlier at a narrow boat, groups were kicking football at flats. We need a new dispersal order.
It is really sad to see the wider football fanbase run with the fan blaming to score meaningless points, instead of believing the countless fan and journalist accounts surrounding the life-threatening events at last nights final
Youngsters incorporating a version of back slang that my dad and his mates used to use in the 1970s into rap songs is something I’m very much here for…
Each time I walk through Liverpool City Centre and see the boarded up shops, flailing businesses, lack of new vibrant establishments, and an increasingly visible homeless community, it makes me dead fuckin sad for the future.
My Sun article, where I exhorted readers not to give up on Unite, has provoked predictable outrage from my rivals’ supporters. Like it or not, The Sun has the biggest working-class readership of any British publication.
Expecting a full scale protest and burning plod vans over the water with calls of “PROTECT THE KIDS” and “GET THEM OUT” to every teacher in said school, right? 🤔🙃
Liverpool now has it’s first plaque acknowledging the city’s relationship and involvement in slavery.
These educational and informative plaques will help people understand how the city was shaped by the slave trade and give an insight into the people involved at the time.
Start as you mean to go on then and all that…
Here’s to 2022. May COVID19 finally get to fuck, politicians get a grip, and wealth and health inequalities disappear!
How cute is this dog though

If you’re gonna portray yourself as a man of the people then this kind of stuff needs cutting out.
Kids understandably look up to him. We don’t want them thinking this kind of stuff is okay.
Students are back. Welcome to Liverpool!
If you live off Smithdown Road, understand your landlord is the cause of most of your problems.
Respect the neighbourhood and have fun. You will love it here.
Big up all the Nurses and everyone else in other professions on strike across the country.
If you think they should “get back to work” then you are a twat.
There’s no room for another opinion on that sorry. Solidarity 🤙🏽
It feels as though saying “fuck the Tories” has become an empty aesthetic which serves to make young lads in the city seem politically sound/acceptable.
Once we peel back the curtain, they may have more in common with the ‘enemy’ than they realise.

Any more Cosmic Scouse vocations?
Despite it’s decline, a lot of people still read The S*n.
Many read it to fuel and confirm their preconceived hatred and ideas of ‘others’.
A Labour MP has written in it as he wants to appeal to such people. Own it. It’s a rag, and the Labour Party isn’t fit for purpose.
