Vienna-Paris was one of my travel highlights this year. What a shame.

It is possible to cherish the BBC as an institution while also saying that BBC News is failing very badly, day after day, in its duty to inform and that it always fails in a right-wing direction. It desperately needs to recover its integrity

This whole summer only one story has dominated our entire politics & it comes down to literally 30,000 people in hotels. Ridiculous.

The government needs to get a GRIP it’s pathetic.

A superb piece of journalism in The Observer: it seems like the one of the sacred texts of Nature Writing (TM) is not quite as much of an unflinchingly honest read as claimed

If only there were half the outrage over Israeli soldiers shooting starving people queuing for food as there has been towards some rappers mouthing off at Glastonbury, we'd be in a very different place

Says the man who gave us the biggest tax burden since the War, highest ever national debt, largest fall in living standards on record and committed the biggest act of self-harm in our history with Brexit. Time to shut the fuck up you shambling oaf.

Going to keep saying it - the Farage effect is largely an illusion. Many, many more people loathe him than like him.

Starmer has called these "return hubs". But if they're for people who can be returned, why use a hub? If they're for people who can't be returned to their own country, they're not return hubs, it's the UK sending people to a country they have no connection with for an indefinite period of time.

"Hordes of cowards caved into the fantasy a few brave women did not" Hmm.
Alternative take most women are not interested in what's in someone else's pants, have no desire to camp outside toilet doors and harass women who are just trying to have a wee and are happy to live and let live.

Throw all your apples away because Dr Feelgood is here.

There's only 2 weeks until Wilko: Love and Death and Rock β€˜n’ Roll opens at Southwark Playhouse Borough.

Jonathan Maitland's play with music tells the amazing true story of Wilko Johnson, founder of legendary band Dr Feelgood.

Loved listening to that at lunchtime David, both the chat with Lauren and your music choices. Also rather enjoyed the book which Vic got for me, even though I consider myself a casual fan (we do exist!)

Why is everybody watching the inauguration? It's not a civic duty, comrades. Have a beer. Put some music on. Call someone. Don't climb into a hole before it even fucking STARTS. I'm going for some Public Enemy and a huge-arsed Malbec, cheers. x

Every single @uklabour.bsky.social MP, the UK PM and every single office of state should come off X and join blue sky.

It would send a very powerful message.
