18 h. ago Erik ten Hag’s sacking is a brutal end to historic failure at Bayer Leverkusen

Captain Robert Andrich bemoaned his team’s ‘misery’ while those upstairs did little to back Xabi Alonso’s successor“You say it best, when you say nothing at all,” was how Ronan Keating put it in a 1999 cover version. Whether Erik ten Hag will choose to get over his latest breakup with a tub of ice-cream in front of a rewatch of Notting Hill is open to conjecture but if he did, lyrics dotted through the film are sure to have an added poignancy.Ten Hag didn’t need telling that in only his second Bundesliga game in charge of Bayer Leverkusen, they and he had had a bad afternoon. Going to a diminished and depleted Werder Bremen (it is probably too early to say lowly, even though we strongly suspect that is the part of the table where they may end up spending most of their time), Die Werkself appeared to be on top of things, holding a 3-1 lead and a man advantage.

3 d. ago Never mind the flag bans, where are the policies? Assessing 100 days of Reform

Some are happy to see new faces in the chambers but many are frustrated with a lack of improvements on the ground since party’s sweeping victories“This motion is bizarre to say the least,” said a bemused Doncaster Labour councillor as Reform proposed that the council fly no flags apart from the union flag from its buildings.It would not just mean no Pride flag on Pride Day, a debate heard. It would mean no white rose flag on Yorkshire Day, no Rovers flag celebrating the football team winning the league, no St George’s flag marking England’s Lionesses’ Euros triumph, and no green flags celebrating municipal park management achievements in the city’s green spaces. The motion was “a waste of time and a waste of resources”, one councillor said. Continue reading...

7 d. ago There’s no stress leave when your boss is a toddler, but there’s so much more society could be doing to help mothers | Freya Bennett

Full-time caregiving is invisible and undervalued. We must address maternal burnout – not simply medicate our way through itI haven’t slept for seven-and-a-half years – at least, it feels that way. The TV, rotating between Bluey, The Wiggles and K-pop Demon Hunters (when the toddler is napping), has been on for days as we battle yet another winter lurgy that drains me yet barely touches the surface of my two daughters, who vomit on the carpet one minute then ask for ice-cream the next. My seven-year-old makes cameo appearances at school, only to catch the next illness and bring it home to the family, our toddler demonstrating what a fine job she’s doing at developing her immune system with fevers, snot, vomit and a bout of conjunctivitis that never seems to end. The house is covered in crumbs and yoghurt splodges, there are no clean clothes and the gastro I got on my birthday set off my chronic illness into the worst flare since being diagnosed in 2021.I am running on fumes, but the...
