"Why have the Greens given the establishment this ammunition?!" Yeah coz they really need ammunition don't they, prior to this they never accused the Greens of being antisemitic, this is a new thing, sure.

It’s almost like the clever, sensible, reasonable, moderate, pragmatic, mature, adults serious about power are either hypocritical or stupid. Usually both.

Israel isn't for all Jews, that's my takeaway from Zack Polanski being banned from Israel.
Picture of Wallace Shawn holding a placard saying "Jews Say Ceasefire Now".
Quote underneath reads: "The Israelis are doing evil that is just as great as what the Nazis did. And in some ways it's worse, because they kind of boast about it ".

I see the clever sensible adults are out in force, clutching their pearls and crying because some people aren’t conflating a six thousand year old religion with a political standpoint dating all the way back to 1948. And they think Reform are thick. 🤣🤣🤣🤡

BBC Grandstand. 1964. Student Jeffrey Archer is about to run a sprint race for Cambridge, having conned the selectors with BS. On your mark…set….the gun fires, the field sprints. Archer claps his hand to his back and does a big fake limp back to the dressing room. A fraud from the beginning.

A great guitarist a day for October. 6/31. The Beale Street Blues Boy, they dubbed him. And for 60 years his companion was Lucille, his black Gibson ES 330. It was a partnership of staggering brilliance and creativity. youtube.com/watch?v=WFi3...

I want to make crystal clear: One of the first things I will do as Home Secretary is detain and expel racist immigrant scum. And I stand as much chance of it coming true as he does.

A great guitarist a day for October. 5/31. Meet a true originator. Malawian Daniel invented his own strum style, part Flamenco, part Clawhammer which enabled him to effectively play lead & rhythm simultaneously. It became the standard template for African rhythm. youtube.com/watch?v=d0Cs...

Here’s a point I haven’t seen anyone make. Every club has, in its founding charter, a rule about choosing their fixtures. If you feel the opposition are cheats, don’t play them. Therefore if Man Cheaty somehow dodge punishment by the PL, they can be punished by their peers simply not turning up.

A great guitarist a day for October. 4/31. As influential as he was uncommercial, nobody did more for electric blues than Elmore. He opened the door for Muddy Waters, Howlin Wolf & B.B.King. They didn’t call him ‘King Of The Slide Guitar’ for nothing. youtube.com/watch?v=VwS2...

A man builds an IED. He sets it off in a busy public street. Shrapnel flies about hitting cars, homes and a child's bedroom. It's a miracle nobody is injured. And Reform MP Sarah Pochin calls his imprisonment "disproportionate" and "two tier justice."
It does raise this point of two-tiered
justice..


Reform's Sarah Pochin believes the
sentence handed to the 64-year-old who
blew up a ULEZ camera was
disproportionate'.

A great guitarist a day for October. 3/31. That Les Paul….even when you build him a custom guitar to his own design, he still goes & mods it. Mics protruding from the guitar body didn’t catch on as standard but the quest for perfection never stopped. youtube.com/watch?v=glcT...

A great guitarist a day for October. 2/31. In his pitifully short life, Charlie established the role of lead guitarist. An invitation to the Goodman quintet was evidence enough of the respect he won Sadly, TB meant he never even got to join the 27 club, passing at 25. youtube.com/watch?v=gn0h...
