There's an absolutely adorable child on this train reciting the alphabet and after K, he keeps going "ello mello P" and honestly his lusty affirmation of life, of hope, reminds me that once again I have forgotten to bring my fucking headphones.

Absolutely terrible news that Moles club in Bath is closing. Such a legendary venue. If local luminaries like Bath Spa Uni or Peter Gabriel could launch a rescue bid I bet loads of artists would be glad to come and play for free to help fill the coffers. Definitely count me in if so...

The Supreme Court explicitly states that today's Rwanda appeal decision does not depend on ECHR. In other words: UK leaving ECHR would not make a difference to this decision.
