derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 21/03/2026I have favourite artists all the way through from the 60’s to the current day. I think it’s harder to find great music now as the mainstream is much more homogenous and coverage is split across so many different platforms. I’m still excited by new music and live performance. 160

derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 13/03/2026I was exactly the same, so I spent the time discovering new music instead. Bought a number of instruments I still can’t play too 😂 110
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 11/03/2026I absolutely loved Julie Covington, the first album was heavily played in my collection. Might need to jump back in. 000
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 10/03/2026The constant attacks from the right wing press and the BBC and other outlets who insist on play forming Reform over parties with far more MPs. 0460
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 10/03/2026Personally I think the greatest forces in the world are from Ukraine. They’re fighting a much bigger country and more than holding their own. 040
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 07/03/2026China, they’re getting stronger with every passing day of Trump alienating the rest of the world 010
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 06/03/2026The only opinions he worried about are Trump and his wealthy donors 020
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 27/02/2026His problem was that in a by election people hear what you’re saying and potentially get to hear you. Based on that I’m surprised he got any votes 000
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 26/02/2026For when Reform isn’t crazy enough for you 010
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 23/02/2026Their version of Christianity is very different from the real thing too. It’s brought directly to us from US Evangelicals who preach white nationalism. No thanks 1180
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 23/02/2026They do exist but it’s not what record companies are churning out 000
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 23/02/2026The problem is it’s a circus made up entirely of clowns 000
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 23/02/2026Not only did we the disaster of Brexit, but despite his aim being to fix the Tories it has actually broken them 000
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 22/02/2026It’s definitely a mental illness now. No matter how deranged the things he does they will play along. 040
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 16/02/2026He’s on brand for Reform, he’s loathsome 000
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 15/02/2026It matches exactly with his arrogance on Question Time where the audience saw right through him and his racism 010
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 15/02/2026I’m all in favour of as many people in the constituency meeting him as possible, I am sure for most people he will make their skin crawl. He’s incredibly unlikeable, even by Reform standards. 021
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 13/02/2026I would have said I prefer Blur and been run out of town 110
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 13/02/2026It made me think of the Magazine album The Correct Use of Soap just from the cover. Off to listen to it now! 000
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 13/02/2026We need the skills of what? Avoiding tax? 000
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 12/02/2026And of course he didn’t really apologise either 0170
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 09/02/2026Just as well I wouldn’t get in with my social media history 010
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 08/02/2026And that’s without all the stuff they are hiding 070
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 07/02/2026It’s incredible there’s still at least one Republican with at least some principles. I mean he’s still awful but at least he’s on the right side of this issue. 1583
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 07/02/2026Trump has been playing snap while China plays 3D chess 000
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 07/02/2026It’s probably never been easier for foreign terrorists to target the US because Trump has all the law enforcement aimed at Democrats 141
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 07/02/2026It’s the one place on the BBC with some serious analysis going on and people actually being challenged. I’m not a big fan of Chris Mason fanboying Reform. 1240
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 01/02/2026It’s one of my favourite months here, 2 and a half weeks of amazing musicians coming to Glasgow. 14 gigs in 2 and a half weeks 010
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 25/01/2026Good luck with the Republicans overseas crank. How she can defend ICE yet again I hate to imagine 010

derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 22/01/2026With representatives from some of the world’s most questionable countries. It’s a festival of far right lunatics 020
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 21/01/2026It’s nice to know that not all American Christians hate the teachings of Jesus. Keep up the great work. 010
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 20/01/2026Just because the GOP are all bought and paid for means they can’t comprehend that not everyone is for sale. Greenland is not for sale. 000
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 19/01/2026He has no interest in honesty, he’s a wannabe Trump impersonator who has realised that there are limits on what he can say out loud after the Greenland outrage. 040
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 13/01/2026What’s wrong with 4% of the people asked??? All official channels should come off X completely. 260
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 08/01/2026They have zero connection to the truth anymore. They call themselves Christians and they would rot in hell if only it wasn’t fictional 1242
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 06/01/2026Congress needs to stand up before you’re at war with the rest of NATO 000
derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 06/01/2026Trump is America’s Putin. A tinpot dictator with state propaganda run by his oligarch allies. You no longer have any other allies and I don’t know if that’s recoverable in any reasonable timeframe. The US is now an enemy to democracy. 010

derekmacd18.bsky.social @derekmacd18.bsky.social · 03/01/2026No that definitely wasn’t the title, it’s a few years ago and I can’t remember the title. 000
