Perfect by Fairground Attraction. I’d betray my country to make it stop

This tune is an absolute belter - thanks for reminding me of it

Definitely and this issue goes back years. Danny Rose against Man City in 2014 a particularly egregious example (especially given he played the ball first)

New Jacquet required.

No, *you* fuck off

Incessant announcements on trains a bigger annoyance IMO. On SWT Hampton Wick into Waterloo there’s barely a minute of silence.

Suspect some female Tory MPs are quietly dying inside at this. When you’re so desperate to get in a bit of gratuitous foreigner-bashing that you find yourself arguing *against* preventative strategies that try to prevent sexual violence, ffs, what have you become?

Agreed. Absolutely spot on

I don't care which imaginary sky pixie you think you're appeasing, if you've spent three hours letting off a barrage of military-grade fireworks you are a braindead cunt

Thank you for your attention in this matter

Perhaps the real ‘two tier justice’ is that the foot soldiers who do the racist tweets get jail time, whilst the lieutenants in journalism who write the racist articles and the colonels as editors who spew out the incendiary headlines, and generals who own the papers, just get lots of money.

I wish Prime Ministers would sometimes say (eg about goings-on at festivals) “I don’t know, I’m too busy”

You had me at Provo PJ & Duncan 😄

team9 - Oops I'm Loaded [Primal Scream Vs Tweet Mashup] (2009) The Start Digital Collective have been making music together under various guises since 2001. We've collaborated with artists, blogs, radio stations, music agencies, movie producers and record labels

Back in the day when everyone was doing mashups, I was very partial to this splicing of Oops Oh My with Loaded (admittedly sans the futuristic elements) soundcloud.com/startdigital...

Drop everything you are doing and read this extraordinary thread.

RFK Jr is an extreme anti-vaxx kook riddled with conflicts of interest, and this analysis shows just how unethical and dangerous he is; he has a body count, which will, sadly, keep on growing while he remains in power.

It's welcome that Starmer is - finally - taking Farage on. Confronting his policies is a gimme. They are vacuous dreams and nasty whinges, and easily taken down. But Starmer has got to play the man as well as the ball because Farage's popularity is built on his phoney 'character'. 'Good old Nige!'>>

All very modern I'm sure…

If I end up in Hell after I die, I fully expect Perfect by Fairground Attraction to be playing on a loop

The Imperialism Has no Clothes JD Vance in Greenland

This, from Timothy Snyder, is definitive, on Greenland open.substack.com/pub/snyder/p...

Good thread, this

Given it's a very strong contender for worst number one of that decade, I am fully behind the BBC on this one

“We wanted to learn the truth about the concerns and the science behind vaccine safety. So we talked to two uneducated, elderly, white, millionaire conspiracy theorists in a Steak & Shake.”

Putin shill's gonna Putin shill

This unspeakable piece of shit has been sucking up to Putin since the early 'don't-poke-the Russian-bear' days of the invasion. It seems he's now set on torching his own domestic reputation as part of his slavish devotion.

I have zero time for anyone who has treated Birbalsingh as a serious commentator. An asbolute disgrace.

"Data doesn't lie"?

It's amazing how much the same people who mocked pre-eminent scientists during COVID are now blindly following a ketamine-fueled hustler and the teenage DOGE dorks.

Sigh…..😞

Another day, another wildly misleading Daily Mail headline.

I mean, it certainly would be headline worthy if police had turned up and accused her of committing a crime by writing innocent FB posts.

But that's not what happened…
