On new music check Charlie XCX new release featuring John Cale. Yes that John Cale. Preview tracks from Wuthering Heights. House and chains of love. Numbingly powerful. She is on the verge of total superstardom. A unique British performer. Charlie is way ahead of the pop establishment. Great songs.

After my last album BREAK THE DARK I’m working on new music. I don’t intend it to become the basis of songs. I want to explore sound design using field recordings and synth/sampled sound. I have treated myself to a hydrophone, binaural mics and a couple of Zoom digital recorders. I do love tech.

Have just seen The Running Man at the IMAX Odeon in Norwich. Absolutely stunning story, fabulous sound and cinema photography. Very special. A total treat for the eyes and ears.

Here is a link to a Paul Morley Radio 4 program about the infamous Alistair Crowley in which I took part. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

Delighted to have had the first part of my radio play, Idyll, played on Solent Radio. Thanks to Leo Ulph for giving us the opportunity to. 2nd part next week. Scroll fwd to 19.39 to hear it. www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/... @BBC_Hampshire @bbcupload @WakeUpLeo

Lest we forget the bravery of conscientious objectors. Most of them made a huge, non violent contribution to the war effort here in the UK.

I’ve just spent a delightful afternoon BFS fishing around Aylesham lock. Not a single fish. I had a nice perch take a chomp on a tiny lure (3grams) but it let go. I’ve never known the fishing so lacking catches but it is called fishing not catching. Still I’ll be looking forward to next time.

Great energy and light.

IMO the woman ruled at Glastonbury this year. None more so than Charli XCX. I missed her earlier stuff but BRAT is pure magic. If you want to know how to program the best dance pop listen to these guys. The song - I might say something stupid is exquisite. My favourite album of the year. So there.😀

When he said that the ocean was clean. It is becoming dirtier ……….

Im horrified

The BBC and Home Secretary conveniently ignoring *why* anti-genocide protesters were out on the streets the same day as the Manchester attack: Because Israel had just abducted hundreds of activists, including Britons, trying to break its illegal starvation-siege of Gaza.

After the Manchester attack a Jewish spokesman said that the time has come to label anti Zionists as Jew haters. Why do Zionists want us to respect them while they ignore the genocide in Palestine? How can Zionists demand safety for themselves while they have persecuted Palestinians for 70 years?

No bass nor any other fish but it was a beautiful evening.

Hive Beach in Dorset at 9pm. Tomorrow I’m going to fish for bass with lures.

Please copy the screen shot below and email to Israel UK embassy with your comments. [email protected]

Netanyahu doesn’t care about the hostages. He’s used the situation to get where he wants to be, on the verge of a full military occupation of Palestine. This ignores hostages relatives wishes and international opinion. Email Israeli UK embassy. I have. It’s a way to protest. [email protected]

My brother was expelled from WARWICK school for being unable to part his hair. My dad marched outside the school with a sandwich board. If Palestine Action group lose their court appeal to overturn the terrorist label you will see me doing the same in Westminster. Care to join me? Out Demons Out.

Israeli US backed food parcels provide a full stomach but an empty diet. The problem is what's missing. A first aid food basket to stop acute hunger. This diet would lead to hidden hunger in weeks, increasing the risk of diseases like anaemia and scurvy. A stealth method to debilitate the starving?

Fabulous.

The famine in Gaza has been entirely manufactured by Israel. Israel and its cheerleaders are lying through their teeth about the crime of the century. Here are Israel's lies taken apart 👇 www.owenjones.news/p/israels-li...

The context was simply inaccurate unless you think he is like a vagina. Nothing wrong with a cunt. Language is important. See Mellor’s beautiful usage in Lady Chatterley’s lover. We should stop using insulting, indefensible, oppressive language. There are no contextual dispensations for misogyny.

The misogynistic pirating of the word demeans all girls and women. Its use as an insult does nothing to make the world a safer place for women. When women use it, is it an expression of unconscious self loathing. Little girl walking past graffitied wall. “ Daddy what does that word mean”?

, this situation is unbearable We die a thousand times a day. We die of hunger, and bombing, we die of grief over the injured children,and while we see our children hungry, and of exhaustion while we try to adapt to hunger at work. We need your help pls don't let us down chuffed.org/project/save...

Starmer says UK will drop food aid into Gaza. Will the RAF use the aircraft they used to fly recon flights over Gaza for the Israeli military?A thousand people have been murdered by the IDF while trying to get food since May. I support Palestine Action. Arrest me. Let me have my day in court.

As a UK citizen I feel ashamed that the government has supported Israel for so long. I hope that the Zionist genocide can be halted. Israelis should be ashamed with their repackaging of holocaust. During WW2 we wanted Hitler dead. Death to Netanyahu and the IDF scum.

Monk on a rock

I am seething. Starmer is standing with Trump over not supporting formation of State of Palestine. I despise his weak and spiteful being. Are doctors worth £25 per hour? Streeting said so when Tories were in power. Support the strike. NOT MY LABOUR.

Not my Labour. If I’m still around and Starmer is PM at next G E I will vote for Shockat Adam or a Corbyn candidate.

I don’t always agree with her but Diane Abbott’s statement on racism and colour is imo spot on. If you agree please sign this. Starmer is incompetent and out of touch. actionnetwork.org/petitions/re...

You are very welcome to it. I am 6000 miles away which seems perfect to me.

This 83-year-old priest has just been arrested for holding a sign which read: “I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action.” According to Starmer’s new law, this puts her in the same category as an ISIS or Al-Qaeda terrorist, with a prison sentence of up to 14 years.

Be very afraid. If the Greenham common women had been active outside a US base today would they be designated as terrorists? Zionists can murder starving people and a rapper is banned for statements no worse than Israel cabinet. ICC indicts Netanyahu and Starmer supports him. Animal farm is now.

In the bone woods

A couple of years ago I wanted to make a small memorial to my friend Janie. I made this on a Welsh hillside during a fishing expedition. What ever happens to the stones they will always be connected to Janie forever.
