Millwall Football Club acknowledges the decision by The Football Association to impose upon it a £45,000 fine and an extension to the FA Action Plan, following a breach of FA Rule E21 during the Carabao Cup fixture against Crystal Palace on Tuesday 16th September 2025.
The sanctions have been imposed in relation to the use of a chant containing the phrase ‘South London Spastics’. The term ‘Spastic’ is a derogatory and discriminatory term and has the effect of leaving those with a disability feeling targeted and unwelcome.
This chant goes against everything the club stands for and is wholeheartedly condemned. The club has a zero-tolerance policy towards all forms of discriminatory abuse; such behaviour has no place in society. Any individual identified as engaging in such abuse will be banned.
This is the comment I left on the website carrying the “Rotersand” interview featured below: “Many of the English-speaking far-right (Neo-Fascist and Neo-Nazi) groups throughout the West – routinely utilise the Rotersand (2009) track “We Shall Kill Them All” as an “anthem” – interpreting the lyrics as being aimed at the political left and any centralised resistance to their destructive agenda. Indeed, this association is so common that I am astonished that this point of enquiry was not raised and discussed in this article. This association is dangerous – as the structure of this track is “catchy” and easily rememberable. There are endless unofficial far-right videos – being shared throughout the internet (primarily by the young of many countries) – that carefully splice black and white footage of WWII-era footage of Hitler, Mussolini, and various aspects of that tumultuous conflict – all from the perspective of Fascism and Nazism. What is the viewpoint of the group-members of – Rotersand – to this disturbing development? From the content of the interview contained in this – the band remains oblivious to this disturbing co-option – if indeed it is a co-option
Despite Epstein’s initial conviction for sex crimes in 2008, some scientists continued to associate with him and accept his funding. For instance, Epstein donated 800,000 U.S. dollars to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), a move that eventually led to the resignation of two scientists and the suspension of another.
While mentions of the researchers in the files do not necessarily indicate wrongdoing or involvement in Epstein’s criminal activity, the details shed light on how deeply he was involved in the scientific fields he funded, said Nature.
The latest batch of files disclosed new details regarding interactions between Epstein and the scientists. Lawrence Krauss, a theoretical physicist whose science-outreach organization received 250,000 U.S. dollars from Epstein, was advised by the financier via email to offer “no comment” as Krauss responded to media inquiries about an investigation of sexual misconduct that led to Krauss’s ousting from Arizona State University in Tempe.
In the sentencing of Lai, the court found that Lai was the “mastermind and driving force” behind conspiracies to collude with external forces and to publish seditious materials. After considering Lai’s grave criminal conduct as well as his mitigation, the court handed down the sentence of 20 years’ imprisonment, with two of the years overlapping with the prison term Lai is currently serving.
Central government agencies in Hong Kong, as well as local authorities, have voiced support for the sentencing.
The sentence of 20 years’ imprisonment imposed on Jimmy Lai manifested that the rule of law is upheld and justice is done, and also brought great relief to all, said HKSAR Chief Executive John Lee.
Lai betrayed the country and harmed the HKSAR, causing damage to the interests of the country and the HKSAR. His conviction is supported by overwhelming evidence, and he for sure deserves his punishment after all the harm he has done, Lee said.
The now “all White” staff took exception to my father’s daughter in law being “Chinese” – and his two grand daughters being of mixed heritage. As old and disabled as he is, my father would get up, wash, get dressed, and order a taxi to my mother’s home to see us (here, my father expressed the will-power that saw his father land in the first wave of British troops on D-Day – and survive) – as he did not want Gee, Mei-An, or Kai-Lin subjected to the normalised racism that was now rampant in the home. As my father stood his corner – a semi-paralysed man in his 80s – the Manager of Hadleigh Court issued him with an Eviction Order – laughably asserting that he is “racist”! Recently, on a routine hospital check – the Manager of Hadleigh court refused for my father to be allowed back into the home. Hadleigh Court was assisted in this by the equally corrupt Torbay Social Services – so nothing new there. As a result of all this, my father is in Torbay Hospital with Social Services refusing to let other care homes take him – as we are a family “prone to complaining”! And that is where things stand. South Devon is a fairly backward area and so the impoverished masses are easily controlled by a few rich people and their Authoritarian lackeys. They do not like the workers standing up to their oppression – but standing up to oppression is what we do best. Do not allow your loved one to be plunged into the dungeon that is Hadleigh Court under this current Manager and staff regime. Hit the capitalists were it hurts – in the purse. It is the only pain that matters to them – as they do not care about the very real pain that their greed and racism inflicts on us. Still, we do not want sympathy from others – as we are all in the same boat – and we certainly do not want your money. We, instead, express our solidarity to every worker who is currently suffering oppression and violence at the hands of the capitalists – an oppression that has not been reduced under the rule of a right-wing Labour government. My mother – Diane Wyles – who is in her late 70s, is bravely fighting a rear-guard action against the corruption of the UK Authorities. Whave each other – tha is all that matters!
