1987 Huddersfield.
One ‘O’ Level.
On the scrap heap.
Until…
I started bootlegging gigs. Hitchhiking across the UK. From the Stone Roses and over 100 gigs inbetween.
And frequently back to the record shop I worked at in Huddersfield - to flog the tapes.

Bloody brilliant Chris 🙌🙌
If evangelicals think Pope Leo is too”woke” just wait until
they hear about this fellow called Jesus.
I going kill a load more people - but hey: ‘glory to God’.

He’s ripped the Beatitudes out of his Bible.
Thank you 🙏 - missing mine terribly today 😥
One day I hope this will feel outdated.
We’re nowhere near there yet.
The politics of empathy and care won last night. #gortonanddenton
66% of voters (combined Green and Labour vote) didn't want Reform. That fact really needs to be the second headline of the night.
Matt Goodwin really managed to bring out the vote….for everyone else
The hard right is eating itself.
Fact Check:
Nigel Farage claims the FT ignored the Mandelson-Epstein scandal
it was on the front page for SIX days
(long before he appears to have even noticed it)
A reminder to UK broadcasters, just because Reform UK are holding a press conference, it does not mean you need to dedicate so much of your day’s news to it
Sincere condolences and a huge amount of empathy Felicity. I lost my mum almost two years ago. My only advice - for what it is worth - is that grief is very personal- so allow yourself the space and time. 🙏
That speech at the Albert Hall 🙌🙌
I thoroughly enjoyed this Steve. Great journalism. Great journalist.
I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.
Stay free
In his most direct protest song in a long career of activism, Bruce Springsteen is singing about the ICE occupation in an incendiary new tune “Streets of Minneapolis."
Brian Eno: anyone who'd leave the UK because they have to pay a bit more tax arent the least community minded
Lord Bethell: "but they are the wealth creators"
"They're not the wealth creators. The wealth creators are the people who make things.. who keep society running"
Well said Brian!
Robert Jenrick becomes the latest Tory Cabinet minister to stand up at a Reform event and say the country is in an appalling state. You have no idea of the self-control required not to yell: "YOU WERE IN FKING GOVERNMENT!"
The Reform pitch is increasingly “the last government was terrible, so we’ve hired everyone who was in it”.
Do it @leedsunited.com it will be better for you. #lufc
Shutting down X is no longer a matter of free speech. It is a matter of child protection.
