Removing your music catalogue from digital platforms in Israel is undergraduate. It draws attention only to your gesture and shifts the dial by nothing. Netanyahu having second thoughts because the crazy young kids in Tel-Aviv can’t stream Heavy Soul

Keyside are a great singles band already and by rights should be on the front cover of something should print music journalism not have shrunk and be so Beatles Dylan Beatles Dylan Dylan Beatles obsessed.

Nathan Gill; A traitor who was at the very top of Reform UK, aiding and abetting Russian adversaries, has been sentenced today. Reform UK should be ashamed. Britain deserves better.

Trump and Putin are both stale old biscuits being offered from the plutocrat tin. Both of them are enemies. Biscuit tin analogy bearing up fair to middling.

All those clapped out journalists rating Dominic Cummings as a genius beyond capable. When it turns out he was just a wearying overstimulated privileged entitled inadequate casting himself as the smart edgy disrupter. Wow. Who knew. That was a shock. Same episode next week.

Earlier today, I was notified that someone was at my door. This is who it was:

BREAKING: Reform UK's former Welsh leader and close Nigel Farage associate, Nathan Gill, sentenced to 10 and a half years in prison for repeatedly taking bribes to spread pro-Russian propaganda

Big Audio Dynamite’s first album still sounds fresh.

Thinking of arranging some Nigel Farage Dulwich Racism tours if anyone’s interested

‘He used to say things like “Hitler was right”’: Farage faces more allegations of racist behaviour at school

Jamal Khashoggi. Say his name.

They make games and movies like they used to. So many of them. Same with books. But the mechanisms you learned about them were totally gutted and changed to only amplify shit that's already popular. It's still there! You're just mostly on your own to find it.

My cats are looking at me like I’ve given them Oasis’ fifth album to them for dinner. I’m avoiding eye contact.

Off you go British Labour Party. You’ve had your moments. Most of them by 1951. It’s not the time for great uncle Jeremy and his train wreck for which even known purveyors of balance the SWP are calling for calm. Its looking like @zackpolanski.bsky.social and @greenparty.org.uk are the future

Labour policy is being celebrated by Tommy Robinson. That's it. That's all you ever need to say to explain who Labour are.

Harold Melvin and The Blue Notes are better than Radiohead

Operation Change The Topic From Epstein

Oh wow @reuters.com got the photo here:

Baiting racists on Facebook comments is a thankless task but sometimes when you have a spare 3 minutes it doesn’t take very long and it can feel righteous.

I think it’s unlikely my mind will change from the conclusion that this years best new album has been @theatreroyal.bsky.social “a change of weather” I’ve rinsed it. Still having it.

And I know I will lose the Geography teachers at this point but now spinning the Brand New Heavies first album

Only the sodding Guardian would ask “is there a dark side to gratitude?” In Mondays edition: “the secret link between satsumas and Nazism.”

Bob Dylan’s “blood on the tracks” on the turntable. Rinsed it on cd late 90s early 00s not heard it end to end since. It sounds like a howl of pain to these more seasoned ears.

Boomers on the next door app going: “I wish to be removed from this website with immediate affect.”

The fact that the BBC has made serious culpable errors does not negate the point that there is a real and concerted right-wing media campaign to destroy it. Both points can be true at the same time and the campaign would not end even if the errors did.

Excellent concise interview with Van the man in @mojomagazine.bsky.social from @andrewmale.bsky.social when will he re-release his back catalogue on vinyl that’s what I need to know

People that need to reissue their entire back catalogue on vinyl part one. Van Morrison.

The BBC has platformed Farage endlessly and the grubby saloon bar fascist wants to call out bias. If Ed Davey was complaining I’d give that man a hearing

This is something

Spinning this.

Got a weeks annual leave so you can put that Sunday evening last of the summer wine theme tune melancholia on a skip with Nigel Farage, parking apps and men who know their sport.

The Lightning Seeds are a treasure trove of melodic pop music with at times heartbreaking lyrics. Sheer class. They deserve more love. And Tilt is an overlooked classic @lightningseeds.bsky.social

Arthur Alexander. That’s a nice sound.

Long Black Limousine by Elvis Aaron Presley is a masterpiece on an album without duds.

Treating a heavy winter cold with Guinness and Billy Fury

The kind of heavy cold I haven’t had since about 1995…..

The Spectator (owned by GBNews owner Paul Marshall - estimated wealth of £800 million) doesn’t like taxing wealth fairly. I wonder how they got to this editorial decision? Let’s tax wealth fairly, fund front line services & make hope normal again. join.greenparty.org.uk

Does Tommy Robinson not pay his own way on anything? Presumably it will shortly be uncovered that his tanning salon was funded by Benito Mussolini.

I called this out on #BBCQT last night and I'm calling it out again now. He is gaslighting a nation.

Funny how Russian bribery gets mentioned by @zackpolanski.bsky.social on #BBCQT & Zia Yusuf gets very upset! Good, about time someone stood up to Reform. Fair play Zack as the panel seemed rattled by you.

Zack Polanski is a breath of fresh air, because he is exposing far right populism and all the lies. And everyone is listening because they've had enough. Labour , Tories and Reform are all the same now and that's why he stands out exposing all their hypocrisy.

Our movement is living rent free in the heads of Telegraph journalists at the moment. Join me in being ‘a threat to the right that they never saw coming’. join.greenparty.org.uk

When Labour negotiates, Brian loses. Poor Brian.

Robert Jenrick is your racist nan but with add ons of Tory entitlement and baseless ambition.

Bob Dylan’s “oh mercy” is always a very persuasive listen. He sounds righteous. And I’m not having the hatred on Lanois’ production. It’s masterful, respectful and enhancing. (His own stuff is well worth a hearing).

On this grey rainy friday i must be commending the humane, melodic, stunning new album from @kathrynwilliamsuk.bsky.social it’s one for autumn but I think it’s a keeper for other seasons too.

Why are warplanes always scrambled? Why do former politicians always leave playbooks behind for others to imitate? Should I have an Indian or a Chinese tonight?

Nigel Farage looks at human tragedy and thinks how it might further his political career. Tommy Robinson can’t spell tragedy.

Spinning an Arthur Alexander LP put out by Ace Records. Is he one of the most covered artists? Fab Four, Gene Vincent, Johnny Kidd & The Pirates…..
