Exactly! So many were fooled thinking they actions were more egalitarian

Task for the week: limit the fallout from biggest oil shock in decades | Richard Partington As World Bank and IMF chiefs gather in Washington, the Iran war is driving up energy prices, fuelling inflation and testing voters’ patience

“Not since late in the second world war have global conflicts triggered this much economic turbulence. The volatile 1970s come close. But the US-Israeli war on Iran, coming so soon after the Covid pandemic and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, take the prize.”

Green Party conference system 'under DDOS attack' trying to prevent anti-Zionism vote The Green Party's tech team is working to resolve or bypass the attack. Voting is taking place throughout today, make sure to cast your vote

Glitch in the matrix

Despite the rumours, I am NOT Banksy

Was that the gig with Eno in ‘89? I missed that one and I missed the American Utopia in 2016. That one missed me totally. As someone said to me ‘understandable, your were in a PhD daze’🤦‍♂️ I got tickets for the Anne’s Park gig the minute it was announced. I'm looking forward to that even more now!!

Tonight marks ab almost 43 year wait to see David Byrne live. I missed the American Utopia gig and the Eno one in ‘89. But since hearing Once in a Lifetime in the summer of 1983 I've been hooked

The kids are alright.

Looks like it's already heating up for a busy year of gigs. Lined up is David Byrne... twice, The Cure, Florence, Elvis Costello, Shannon & Narducy. And a couple of smaller artists at Whelans.
