97% voted against the government plan to rob artists. Liz Kendall describes that as ânot a clear consensusâ. Infuriating Labour charlatans. Just awful people, as bad as Tories.

I saw Gary tour this album last month in what was, for him, very strained and emotional personal circumstances. Subsequently he captured the very human emotions behind this album quite poiniantly. This review also nails it.

I urge you to note here how much of British politics and media - and indeed British culture in general - is just bullying, and little more. Itâs a daily exercise in enforcing the social hierarchy by reminding everyone who they can and cannot kick. Thatâs why our most famous sitcoms are like that.

Itâs weird that news organizations like the BBC are covering this as if itâs a real thing with a real process behind itâand not clearly some nakedly invented âparticipation trophyâ by a corrupt organization to curry favor with a corrupt and easily manipulated man-child.

Well, for various reasons it's been a thoroughly miserable year. I'm thoroughly miserable, I'm sure you are too. So my listening habits have been mostly comfort listening in 2025, retreating into old favourites drawn from Dub, Death Metal, and EDM.
