I wish those people who decry UDI as an undemocratic abomination were quite as critical of the sustained undemocratic refusal by Westminster to 'allow' Scotland the independence referendum it wants and has voted for. Chance would be a fine thing.

Still from the 1941 film "Love on the Dole", with the unfortunate subtitle "She's a strange lassie's arsehole".

Catastrophic subtitling on the 1941 movie "Love on the Dole".

(It should read "She's a strange lass, is our Sal"...)

Israelโ€™s new measures do nothing to stop the starvation crisis in Gaza, say aid workers Humanitarian workers say airdrops and corridors to allow trucks into region have done little to stop the rising death toll

Aid groups report that Israel is refusing to allow any olives or other โ€œfruits or vegetables with pits or seeds that could be plantedโ€ into Gaza. They will only allow in pitted olives.

We got the brand-new Elisabeth Elektra album โ€˜Hypersigilโ€™ in stock.

Dancefloor friendly, full of sonic wonder and hymns to magic and a weaving of new femme narratives; a tapestry of alchemical transformation.
