So trying to declutter and cut down my vinyl collection. Had a quick look on eBay to see if they’re worth anything. Here’s 4 which are worth combined £110! 🤯 What to do?! Keep or sell??
4 12 inch singles that I was thinking of parting with, amongst a load more. These 4 are worth a combined £110! Wonder what the rest are worth?

Another brilliant, hilarious as ever, piece from @normalisland.co.uk x

As a corporate journalist I’m angrier about the “Zionism is racism” motion than I am about genocide. Here’s why...
The Green Party of the UK committed one of the gravest crimes in living memory today when it passed a motion declaring that “Zionism is racism”.

They need to have enough guts to step in before somebody gets hurt instead of finding their conscience after the police, lawyers and administrators show up. The answer to sexual violence cannot keep being that women need to get better at surviving men. Men need to get better at being men.

Does the courage of August Landmesser echo through time because of his particular refusal to submit to Adolf Hitler, or because he represents a refusal to allow a commitment to a moral universal be betrayed and destituted by a braying mob?

🤔 Protester Terrorist
Hundreds of protesters, dressed in black and wearing face coverings, blocked roads in the Port of Dover and chanted "stop the boats" on 6 September 2026. There were no arrests.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cy8znyzgkjjo?app-referrer=deep-linkPicture from sit-in protest in Parliament Square over the banned group Palestine Action in August 2025 showing middle-aged lady being carried away by police. 522 demonstrators were arrested on suspicion of breaking terrorism laws - more than double the total such arrests in 2024.
