The biggest takeaway from this is about giving back self esteem/ self worth.
When you’re at rock bottom you lose more than just housing and possessions. You lose a reason to live. As a former rough sleeper, I was at that point.
I escaped that life when people made me feel

Matters not whether fans have ever boxed before. They pay a lot of money to watch the boxing either live or via a game changing app.
I’ve never acted before but I know a shit movie when I see on. Or a bad meal in a restaurant etc etc.
Paying customers are allowed an opinion.
Anthony Joshua reacts to criticism of his performance vs Robert Helenius and fans booing before the KO: "Have any of them ever boxed before?"

Reminds me of that movie about neo-Nazis in Melbourne, Australia starring Russell Crowe. Romper Stomper. One of his lines was “this is not your f*cking country!” I don’t need to point out the obvious irony in that statement.

Thank you Andrew, this was a great thread. A very difficult read, but it was very informative. More so than what I’ve read in the media. It puts some meat on the bones of why the Israeli response has been so robust. They cannot allow Hamas to regroup and carry out another attack.

Arbitrary numbers are meaningless. It’s no use recruiting 6500 teachers without pinpointing where they are needed. Training 6500 people who only want to work in, say, the south east when the need is in,say, the north west doesn’t solve the problem.
