A few years back, Israel Folau gave a confronting opinion on gay people â and his career in major football codes was as good as over. Now, a lifeline back into rugby league is being given a fine-tooth comb scrutiny (âFolau to agree to social media terms in $1m Dragons offerâ, February 3). What on earth does an ability to cleverly pass a lump of leather have to do with Folauâs narrow, though not unique, views on homosexuality? Football has produced its share of louts, partner bashers and sexual abusers, some of whom have somehow been allowed to tip-toe back into the game.
Rothco Rolls Out New Campaign for Dennyâs Meat Free Range
January 15, 2021
Rothco, part of Accenture Interactive, has rolled out a new campaign for Dennyâs meat-free range of products which have been launched on the Irish market.
Long associated with bacon, sausages and puddings, the new Dennyâs range includes meat-free sausages, burgers and mince. Dennyâs is owned by Kerry Foods and the company has invested heavily in developing a range of  plant-based and meat-free products in other markets, including Naked Glory in the UK. It is estimated that the meat-free market will be worth around $21bn worldwide by 2025.

Doctor Who overseen by Chris Chibnall have been criticized in some quarters for being more radical than the ones that came before. This is a frequent attack in the British tabloids;

“Revolution of the Daleks” does, well, exactly what it says on the TARDIS-shaped tin. It’s a story of revolution, giving us a brand new kind of Dalek Earth-grown thanks to a disconcerting combination of the fallout of keeping last year’s New Year special hush-hush and the return of Chris Noth’s seedy Trumpian analogue Jack Robertson from 2018 s “Arachnids in the UK.” It’s also a Dalek story through and through, and just as writer-showrunner Chris Chibnall proved in “Resolution,” he knows how to write a solid, by-the-book one of those: there’s no real interrogation of who the Daleks are and their relationship to the Doctor here; that’s by and large out of the way now that Jodie Whittaker has already learned how to stare down a sinister eyestalk. They’re here, they’re angry space bigots, and they’re gonna hover around and shoot death beams and yell “EX-TER-MIN-
