Was thinking about my mum today. She would always try to get us a record for birthdays or Xmas.
She would always get the names of bands we liked wrong.
She would go into record shops in town and ask for the latest album by Lloyd Cole and the coconuts.
Early bird and all that 😬

Couldn’t agree more, forget the 115 charges. That is a serious crime, should definitely be a points deduction.

My Great Grandma was a suffragette. My Grandmother survived the Nazis. My Mother championed equal pay and respect for AIDS sufferers. Now it's my generation's turn to step up and show our daughters the power of peaceful protest and standing together for what is good and decent.
It’s our turn to show up: for what’s good and decent.
Let us know your reason for marching 👇

“I'm only young, but I understand history – I want the future to be bright and full of hope! That’s why I stand against the far right. People deserve to be treated with dignity no matter their sex, culture, or background.”
We all have reasons for marching. What's yours?

To be honest they have spent millions and because they are shit have been knocked out of everything. One game a week is helping them massively.
Palace had a European game on Thursday night.
Agreed, difficult to stop following the team but a boycott on any merchandise or catering facilities is a start.

"Be the one who smiles, who stops, who shares a precious moment."
Today, we’re sharing a message from London vendor André, written for anyone rushing through a busy city who might pass a street vendor without noticing.
💌 Swipe to read André’s postcard (a postcard he designed himself!)
Lots of councils have cut their funding for homelessness. The situation would be worse if it wasn’t for the good souls that volunteer and donate to help staff deal with an overwhelming workload.

An old man walks slowly past the camera. To the left an exuberant child runs with wild abandon.
Ghosts of youth.

In any war it is always the children who suffer most.

Just naked racism from Farage and the Mail.
Only British and commonwealth citizens are allowed to vote. It's not 'stealing' to legally take part in your own country's elections

Mine as well, was our dad’s favourite song . I can’t remember not having at least a tear every time I listen.
Everything about it is beautiful
